Finnish electronic dance music is quickly becoming the new sound of Finland. With a unique blend of influences, these artists are creating a fresh and exciting sound that is getting noticed by music lovers around the world.

The History of Finnish EDM

EDM, or electronic dance music, has its roots in the underground clubbing culture of the 1980s. In the 1990s, EDM began to make its way into the mainstream with artists like The Prodigy, Fatboy Slim and The Chemical Brothers. Since then, EDM has become one of the most popular genres in the world, with festivals like Tomorrowland attracting hundreds of thousands of people each year.

While EDM has become increasingly globalized in recent years, there is still a strong sense of regionalism within the genre. In Europe, for example, there are well-established scenes in countries like Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands. One of the latest hotspots for EDM is Finland, where a new generation of Finnish producers is making a name for itself on the international stage.

Finnish EDM is characterized by its heavy use of synthesizers and trance-like melodies. It often draws inspiration from traditional Finnish music, as well as other genres like metal and techno. Some of the most popular Finnish EDM artists include Darude, Super8 & Tab and Jean Michel Jarre.
