The idea that you "grow out" of EDM/Rave culture is a myth. 🚫

You don't grow out of it, you just stop settling for low-bitrate streams and $10 earbuds.

For me, the rave has shifted from the warehouse floor to a high-fidelity local setup. It's about digital sovereignty, owning your library, bypassing the algorithms, and hearing every layer of a complex synth through a proper DAC and good headphones.

Whether you’re at the back of the crowd by the soundboard with high-end earplugs or at your desk with a custom Easy Effects setup. If the BPM still hits, you belong there.

Music is frequencies. Frequencies are math. And math doesn't have an expiration date.

I do get why they are moving, working with Qt is just very nice. I do miss the beatifull GTK UI though
