This was mostly a tongue in cheek reply on my part to get people to bite on the topic edit I made, but I really do find it incredibly annoying and played out. It definitely gives anything less than an amazing freestyle more of a generic feeling. If you want to stand out construct a routine around more unique music. ---

I’d say I agree with that. I think that is a reflection of two things: 1. The younger demographic attending to contests usually use any style of EDM for their routines, making this type of music appear over and over on yoyo contests, annoying the heck out of people who don’t like this style of music. People get really defensive about their music taste man let me tell ya. 2. From a more strategic standpoint, music like dubstep has a very heavy enphasis on cues that hit every quarter or eight note, at very friendly tempos for choreography, which makes it quite an intelligent choice of music for yoyo freestyles, since players can adjust their element-heavy combos to sync and match with the cues of said song. Players like Polo and Chandler are very known for using this exact same technique when competing. Examples on how this style of music works well on comps: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/4/1/94101be706255595e306acdfee287cec6261cf91.jpeg "2018World SemiFinal 1A 06 Garbkamol Limangkul") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCZ2ANk8LHw) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/3/f/83f91a815c5708ae02b64279bd43a4b6e5e4706c.jpeg "Garbkamol Limangkul aka "Polo" (TH): 1A Division Finals - Asia Pacific Yo-yo Championships 2017") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej3oycH8uUA) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/8/c/08cecce6f2ad27cea874e28f8c9878f73a7d1975.jpeg "2017World SemiFinal 1A 07 Gentry Stein") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NzGQw4orCU) So, is it boring and generic? Yeah, it is. I guess when, as a competitor, your trickset is built to work with this type of music, changing it for a more “original” or “unique” type of music can ruin your chances to do well on a contest. I just wish more people yoyoed to metal tbh lol. ---

Intelligent choice? Sure. But its also an easy choice that doesn’t require a lot of effort to choreograph to. ---

I genuinely like IDM and EDM just for listening, and my tastes have been growing less and less mainstream as time goes on. I’ve been listening to it since my dad introduced me to trance and house around 2010 or so, and I will say that the generic “lite-step” that seems to be permeating a lot of freestyles and background music for yoyo channels is boring and kinda annoys me sometimes. Same with super common pop songs. But Evan throwing to “freebird” has to give non bass-heads a little hope, right? ---
