>>12033230Ayrt here, I'm from Yurop too. Nowadays electronic music also has a decent followership in the US, but the development in taste is a different one. Hardstyle is a comparably young genre that only started to develop into its own thing in the 2000s, which mostly happened in Europe with its first dedicated festivals taking place there too. Only around the late 2000s to early 2010 it would slowly start to spread globally and build a fanbase outside of Europe, but not as rapidly as the general EDM boom did. The North American taste gravitates more towards genres like trap, big room or pop influenced house subgenres such as bass or slap house.
So yeah, I would say while Hardstyle is growing more and more of a global fanbase, it's a very European thing, rather niche and still foreign in many regions.
