There’s something I’ve noticed over the last few days on Monstercat and Proximity and that’s the large amount of unnecessary hate for big room house tracks.

I’m just gonna say it.

This song sucks.

Deserves so much more hate than Bleed.

So empty, so repetitive, and the drop is boring as well.

Doesn’t live up to Emergency in the slightest.

That’s all. – Luke Butler Simple music for simple minded people. The people that usually love it are usually the people that don’t know how to branch from mainstream. – Mark Radwin

And this is just the tip of the ice berg when it comes to hate towards big room, never mind the hate for Bleed as well.

So I’m going to talk a bit about it and try and convince some of you to give some of these tracks a chance and maybe some of you will actually like it. I’m going to start with a song that most if not all of you guys would have already heard, Legacy by Krewella & Nicky Romero, a perfect example for the sub-genre combining both classic house and electro techniques. The builds of house and the energy of electro and the “drop” that separates it from standard progressive house. So why was this track so well accepted when What You Waiting For had such a terrible launch, we could only guess at why this happened, but the one thing to take away from this brief blog post is that its better to listen to a track first rather than to judge it for its genre.
