The EDM scene on the rise -- Big Influence: USC Events

Electronic Dance Music has been around for almost two decades, and yet, its popularity just began to rise about two years ago. Artists who were never heard of are now common names known all over the world. As this craze drops is heavy bass influences all throughout our nation, Seattle's music scene got a makeover. A city always known to birth many famous musicians and musical festivals, this new era of music has become a huge success here in The Emerald City. 

One company we can heavily thank for that is USC Events. United States of Consciousness has been providing the Seattle music scene with the best Electronic Dance music since 1996 but wasn't until very recently that the concerts began to sell out and their business became much more demanding. 

One of their signature events is the annual Halloween concert called Freaknight Festival where about twenty local and national DJs perform over a period of seven hours at Seattle's WaMu Theater. 

"Just two years ago, I bought my ticket at the door of Freaknight an hour before the show started," said one dedicated USC events fan, "last year, I was safe buying my ticket about five days before the [same] event." 

Surprisingly, this year, Freaknight sold out 23 days prior to the event. This just goes to show how much more popular EDM shows are becoming.
