It's amazing how much EDM albums get ripped to shreds these days it's fascinating.

'It's amazing how much EDM albums get ripped to shreds these days it's fascinating.'
There's a simple answer for this - EDM is not for albums. Dance music in general is meant to be played live in a club or festival setting, where the better sets have a certain amount of variation in style or genre, not a whole album of the same thing. A lot of artists in the scene these days have a particular style and rarely venture out of it, which primarily is a result of fans getting butthurt about it (just look at the backlash from Headhunterz' fans when he transitioned from hardstyle to progressive house, which is why a lot of artists use aliases to release different material) but also because why change the formula if you're being successful and enjoying what you're currently doing. A whole album of the same thing just gets repetitive and stale, whilst in a short EP or a single its it's own entity. Some artists manage to pull off longer works (I highly recommend Julian Calor - Evolve from last year and KSHMR's new EP The Lion Across The Field which came out about two weeks ago), but those are few and far between.

My rating has little to do with the fact that it is EDM, but that the album shows no progress from an artist that little to offer to start with. Give me some work from Gui Boratto, Fritz Kalkbrenner, and many more, and I am happy to listen to it. Cloud Nine however, is not something that I can enjoy, be it in a club or anywhere else.

Yet they play in clubs and on festivals, where they play electronic music, and people dance to it.
And yes, the vocals Fritz Kalkbrenner uses can be a bit boring at times, but I tend to prefer the tracks without vocals (Get a Life, Layer Cake, Kings in Exile).

Gui Boratto makes tech house and minimal techno, while fritz kalkbrenner mixes techno beats with other influences. But yeah, I guess it's no EDM.

it's boring, it's generic, but I don't see it being a 1. It's not offensively bad, just dull and lifeless.

I just cant find anything redeemable about this. Too long, so basic and simplistic in sound design that they're bland and forgettable, horrible guest features and even worse lyrics (even by 'EDM' standards), and it just piles on.

i mean i agree, but i don't hate it. if most of these tracks came on the radio i wouldnt really mind much, like not completely awful, just lacking any soul

maybe im just being cynical right now, but wow listening to this was like listening to True all over again... but at least that record (collection?) pretended to have a personality with all the guitars and strings thrown in.
