Taggart’s reward went past the world of the underground scene, nonetheless. In response to a query reflecting on the 2010’s “golden era” of dance music, Taggart agreed that it feels as if the style is at the moment poised for one other increase cycle.
“It does kind of feel like that now,” Taggart continued. “Hard house is like, so big in Europe right now. It doesn’t really have much presence in the U.S., but that could be the kind of the Boys Noize electro scene, and then you have techno and deep house that’s really popping off. Where all this leads, I’m not sure, but it’s really an exciting time that feels like the beginning of how it started before.”
The Chainsmokers’ sentiments monitor carefully with fellow chart-topping artist David Guetta, who beforehand expressed that the “best years in dance music history” would emerge following the pandemic.
