EDM: The Conspiracy Theory You Want To Hear About

Ok so this is crazy. I haven't even told you anything about this plot, and yet you would be extremely likely to believe I'm on drugs or something, which is a topic for another time... Anyway, everything you've every known is a lie...One could assume. To be honest I'm not sure what to make of this but here we go. You should probably sit down.

Electronic music is just a conspiracy to make sure people stay high, numb, disconnected from the world and constantly craving that next drop or order of wings. Now the world was first turned on to this beautiful theory by some internet person called Micky24242, and the awesome producer Hudson Mohawke turned us on to this fire.

Basically it all started with Elvis. People think of Elvis as some soft old school shit, nah that dude would have been on Jackass, he could have killed Keith Richards with his drug consumption, he probably would have created some competing company to Playboy had he lived long enough. The man was a savage, he was eccentric, he was a rock star. With all of this, teenagers were spawned, and so was teenage angst, and resentment of your parents. All this rebelliousness was simply too much to bear, and the root of it all was music. So what did the CIA do? Well, 2 CIA agents met 2 MI6 agents at a truck stop in Belize, they had beers and talked. These spooks thought that the fresh wave of adults, the first wave of these angsty teenagers, would be pretty unhappy with the world, so instead of changing the world, the CIA thought it best to change them.

To go about changing these teens, the CIA harnessed everything that makes those teenage years so fun: sex, drugs, and fandom. The plan was conceived. In order to eliminate any sense of teen revolution, the agencies had to harness it, creating a method for controlling hordes of youths. The infiltration was near total. The project was called Project Paradise and record labels, instrument makers, TV production houses, magazines and more were all paid huge amounts of money to propagate electronic music. Its aim was to create an environment where music and drugs go hand in hand.

Basically, the CIA are accused of creating club culture to keep people blinded and vegetated and seeking drugs or a high rather than answers or purpose. Considering how the goal was to create a scene where music and drugs go hand in hand, and now we have EDM festivals and shows which are trash unless you're rolling your face off, so I'd say if they did it, they succeeded.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
