Joe Biden has defeated President Donald Trump to become the 46th president of the United States — and the EDM community is celebrating today.
For the first time in a long time, our Twitter feed is overwhelmed with hope and positivity. Cheers can be heard loudly and proudly in the streets of New York City, America is welcoming Kamala Harris as the first woman and woman of color as vice president, and as Rukes declares, “America is now great again.”
Madeon, deadmau5, Ellie Goulding, Destructo, Jauz, Rezz, GRiZ, Subtronics, G Jones and so many more are weighing in on the election results. For the majority of Americans (and friends of our country), today is an overwhelming sigh of relief. Now it’s time to come together.
Read just some of the tweets coming in below.

It’s over. It’s finally over. So many people can finally take a real breath for the first time in 4 years.

I needed some joy and relief so badly ! I can’t explain how it feels. Tomorrow there’ll be plenty of time for nuance but i’m gonna let today be soothing.
— Madeon (@madeon) November 7, 2020
There’s more work than ever to be done, but a moment of pause and relief is warranted here for so many Americans who deserve it after so much fear. It’s nice to see a celebration after all these years.

In all honesty, this is just the beginning. There is a lot of work to do to get this country united again as opposed to how much division trump created. We are the United States of America at the end of the day and we need to start bridging our differences and coming together 🇺🇸
