[TITLE] EDM Mayhem
[DESCRIPTION] Due to the explosively rising popularity of electronic dance music, the long-time fight between some of the acoustic and electronic musicians has gone too far today when angry groups of conservative acoustic musicians violently broke into various EDM studios all over @@NAME@@, destroying nearly all of the equipment, severely injuring eight DJ's and many other studio employees in the process. After most people from the angry groups have gotten arrested, many citizens and music lovers all over @@NAME@@ have remained restless about the situation, bringing it to your attention.

[CHOICE 1] @@RANDOMNAME@@, renowned acoustic musician places a radio on the table, tuning it to the ''Radio Classical FM'' station. ''@@LEADER@@, this electronic diarrhea music is the worst thing that has ever happened to music culture as a whole and it's just talentless, soulless and heartless synthesized garbage! No wonder they broke into the EDM studios! And just so you know, I can't even walk through the streets without seeing these radically weird-dressed ''ravers'' as I think they're called, swinging with their blinding light sticks while dancing to these loud ear-torturing noises with irritating processed vocal samples and effects on every single street corner! We have raged over this for long enough, ban electronic music entirely so we can return well-respected effort, heart and soul back into our music and educate these youngsters about what REAL music is!''

''Are you crazy?'', exclaims Davy Brown, CEO of @@NAME@@ EDM Studios® while tuning the radio to the ''ElectroBeatz FM'' station. ''Electronic music is a huge money-maker at the moment because of its rising popularity! Banning it would also be a huge violation on our freedom of expression, and we would lose all our beloved fans, radio stations, revenue and sales of all of our electronic music creation programs like VeggieLoops Studio! And trust me, not ALL electronic music is talentless, soulless or heartless. You just heard some of the more agressive genres around, that's all! @@LEADER@@, I suggest you subsidize the electronic music industry, so we can rebuild our studios, get more great DJ performances going and take over the entire acoustic music indu- I mean... please our fans harder, better, faster, stronger!''
[CHOICE 2B] [VALIDITY] Only valid for nations with a state-planned economy
''Are you crazy?'', exclaims Davy Brown, head of the @@NAME@@ EDM Studios Group while tuning the radio to the ''ElectroBeatz FM'' station. ''Electronic music is greatly benefiting our national economy at the moment because of its rising popularity! Banning it would also be a huge violation on our freedom of expression, and we would lose all our beloved fans, radio stations, and availability of all of our electronic music creation programs like VeggieLoops Studio! And trust me, not ALL electronic music is talentless, soulless or heartless. You just heard some of the more agressive genres around, that's all! @@LEADER@@, I suggest you increase public spending for the electronic music industry, so we can rebuild our studios, get more great DJ performances going and take over the entire acoustic music indu- I mean... please our fans harder, better, faster, stronger!''

[CHOICE 3] 'There's no need to favor one over the other!'' Says @@RANDOMNAME@@, your Minister of Culture, while tuning the radio to the ''FusionMusic FM'' station. ''You all are completely forgetting the underlying problem: your disrespect towards your opposite styles! I suggest we unite the acoustic music industry and the electronic music industry into one big music industry and set up schools to teach everyone your own ways of making both acoustic and electronic music, all while still being able to produce and release songs in any way you like! Maybe even try fusing elements of both acoustic and electronic music into one song for once? How interesting! Sure, we'll have to raise the taxes a bit to make all of this possible, but I think it's gonna be well worth it if it means we can enter an entirely new peaceful and exciting era in music culture!''
[FALLOUT 3] DJ's can be seen blowing on guitars thinking they're flutes.

[CHOICE 4] "Why should the government even care?" Says @@RANDOMNAME@@, a renowned anarchist yelling from outside the window. "The things that happened, just happened, and stuff like this happens around the world on a daily basis anyway! Besides, those invaders got arrested, right? And for your information, most, but not ALL of the EDM studios have been destroyed! I really don't see the problem here, so please, let the government take its big nose out of these cases, and give us a nice tax cut while you're at it!"

This version apparently won a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording in 2009.
