Reportajes y Opinión
61 min

The electronic music landscape is going through an unprecedented transformation due to the massification of techno. Figures of the scene like Andrés Campo and Regal analyze how the genre has evolved from its underground roots to being a mass phenomenon. It delves into the blurring of musical boundaries, where accelerated styles like hard techno intertwine with current trends, opening a debate on the purity of the sound on the dance floor and the respect for pioneers like Chimo Bayo.

On the other hand, the market saturation and the pressure that DJs suffer from social media are addressed. The immediacy of digital consumption has altered club culture, pushing to prioritize viral moments over the narrative of a set. This dynamic creates a bubble where image eclipses quality at large festivals, posing a crucial challenge for the future of the industry and the education of the new audience.
