DJs like Calvin Harris have made the genre more accessible to all music lovers - with Rihanna, Ellie Goulding, Frank Ocean and Migos being among the collaborators who’ve brought vocals to his skillful arrangements.
Several top 10s have proven EDM’s reach goes beyond the club and rave scenes. Sure, it is country, pop and R&B that have seen most of the biggest hits under the everlasting theme - but “love songs” encompass much more than just sentimental ballads.ĮDM may have a reputation for heavy bass drops and addictive synth beats, but a growing number of dance tracks feature thoughtful and emotional lyrics, too.
When you think of love songs, artists like Frank Sinatra, Etta James, The Beatles, Al Green and Dolly Parton are probably among the first that come to mind.
