Year after year, we’re reminded just how influential electronic dance music remains after a decade—and how old we’re getting. Ready for a trip down memory lane?
A slew of genre-defining songs are reaching their decade mark in 2024. Household names like Alesso, Avicii, Martin Garrix and Calvin Harris added undisputed classics to their discography in 2014 while the likes of Porter Robinson, Madeon and Galantis were beginning to define their legacy.
Skrillex may be the most notable of all from 2014, a year that saw him release his debut album Recess, which went on to influence a generation of dubstep artists. He also kicked off his collaborative project with Diplo, Jack Ü, which remains a relic of a beloved bygone era of the Skrillex lore.
If you’re itching to relive a golden era of electronic music, sit back and read on.
