Tate Sedar learned about electronic music from his parents’ compilation CDs and Dance Dance Revolution. Now he’s making the kind of dance tracks that would absolutely wreck both those things, and I mean that as a compliment.
His debut EP “POST-EDM” arrives exactly one year after he first coined the term, and it’s a surprisingly personal collection from a genre not exactly known for vulnerability. From the funk-infused opener “San Francisco” (a nod to his hometown roots) to the radio-friendly “Our Goodbye” with Liv Kennedy (which cracked rotation on SiriusXM’s BPM), each track feels like Sedar opening another page in his musical diary.
The EP’s strength lies in knowing when to honor dance music traditions and when to ditch them entirely. “Emotions” featuring P$YCHEDELIC blends tech house with hip-hop in ways that feel seamless rather than gimmicky. By the time closer “Dream” hits with Otto Palmborg’s ethereal vocals, you realize you’ve been listening to a producer who actually cares about crafting a song as much as sound design.
