   @nyx big tent EDM 2011-2014 outside of like deadmau5' thing (which sort of collapsed quickly) was not a coherent scene, but that just sort of means the most obvious figureheads are more consequential
   
   Pendulum/Knife Party is probably the other most obvious example if you are looking to find lineage with like popular forms of metal into EDM

     @siltwrecked I guess you would call this stuff like the "New Wave of amerikkkan Heavy Metal" that to me is part of the same phenomenon as pop punk, brostep, and also the bro industrial of the era (like, Combichrist is one that comes to mind). there were so many unbelievably shitty commercialized mutations of 20th century subcultures during this period and they were all being led by extremely mid white men who all drank energy drinks and wore like No Fear/Tapout shirts and Vans. it's kind of insane

     @siltwrecked I had never even looked into anything about him but I was around metalcore a lot more when I was a teenager because I used to listen to metal a lot more back then. I also hated metalcore and the adjacent mainstream metal from that period and thought it was all fucking awful so the fact that Skrillex has a metalcore background is absolutely hilarious to me because that's pretty much the exact analogy I was making except for metal instead of punk. called it

     @nyx Excision specifically has made claim that "brostep" has its origin point in Vex'd, which I kind of hear, but that kind of space as whole is way more clearly influenced by Skrillex's metalcore background
