Notable producers such as Axwell and Steve Angello of now-defunct Swedish House Mafia (who had been credited with their influence to progressive house) have emphasized the need for more creative and experimental EDM tracks overall. Mixmag described big room tracks as consisting of "titanic breakdowns and spotless, monotone production aesthetics (read: lowest common denominator 'beats')." In a Reddit AMA, Wolfgang Gartner described big room as a "joke", and considered it, along with conglomerates such as SFX Entertainment, the oversaturation of events in North America, and "major label A&R’s shoving digestible cheap dance music down teenager’s throats" as the biggest problems affecting the EDM industry. Big room is thought of as a subgenre of electro-house.īig room has become controversial in the EDM scene, being criticized by some producers for becoming a stereotypical "EDM" sound lacking originality and creativity, and that the whole genre sounds homogenous. The layout of a big room track is very similar to the layout of a typical electro-house song. Big room songs resemble Dutch house, often incorporating drops, minimalist percussion, regular beats, sub-bass layered kicks, simple melodies, and synth-driven breakdowns.

Big room now is beginning to subside from the classification of a subgenre of electro house and develop more as its own genre. In the early 2010s, a type of electro-house known as " big room" began to develop, particularly gaining popularity through EDM-oriented events and festivals such as Tomorrowland.
