PG's 'Modern Pop' styles make an attempt in this direction but they have so far missed the point:

EDM, dance and house music are separate genres from mainstream contemporary pop (personally, I can't stand them!)

I think that accounts for some of the misunderstandings in this thread. BIAB would be no good for house music or EDM. Its creators have better tools for creating that (to me) tedious, irritating noise!

My main point is that we are now at a time when there are more good, accessible pop songs around than there have been since the 70s. They are relatively conventional in structure and much closer to the best features of BIAB. They have fresh sounds, as can be heard in my song list, but please no EDM, dance or house!



All forms of music are for the expression of human emotions.
Some emotions are suitable for pop songs.
Some emotions are suitable for rock music expression
Some emotions are suitable for HipHop
Some emotions, suitable for EDM, house, trace
SO, it is inappropriate for me to say that EDM is noise. grin
