So much wrong with this.

Started by a lawyer in Washington DC[1] to advocate in gov and congressional hearings for EDM. WTF? Oh, and to get a bit more coverage for the Electronica and Dance categories in the Grammys.

Electronic music stars split from Rock to form own lobbying group

This is what happens with musical elitism. It creates rebellion. This is really sad.

I was thinking more about Decadence and the Descent into Patternwork. And Frank Zappa's concept of the "Cocaine Decision" and it's associated expensive ugliness. Trace the path from 2005, Mala, Coki, Loefah, Skream in dirty grimy clubs in S London to industries bodies lobbying the US gov for recognition of the problems surrounding EDM in 2013. First world problems, eh?

Well Julian your pattern of thought is too hard for me to follow. I was more into how this creates a break between the two genres.
