[Ivanova](https://www.ticketfairy.com/id/word/author/ivanovadsilva.md) 10 Oktober 2025 · Baca 4 menit Behind the glitz and laser lights, there is a story waiting to be told about electronic dance music, its movement, artists, and experts who work behind the scenes. These stories are rarely known, including everything from off-camera challenges, interviews, and lots more that come into the limelight with the help of documentaries. Below is a list of documentaries and concert films you should watch this year. ## Waiting For The Drop The directorial debut of filmmaker, former The Wall Street Journal, Billboard, and The New York Times staff writer, and journalist Alexei Barrionuevo is a documentary tracking the rise and popularity of both electronic dance music and DJs, the difficulties in their path, and more. The making of his documentary spans a decade from 2013 to 2023, and features songs from deadmau5, Hardwell, Tiësto, Arty, and Ferry Corsten. ‘Waiting for the Drop: Rise of the Superstar DJs’ takes you behind the scenes to see off-camera unseen footage, backstage struggles, and key moments on-stage. It starts off with dance music in Ibiza, the Netherlands, and the UK in the 1980s and ‘90s. [Waiting For The Drop official documentary trailer](https://www.youtube.com/embed/lMhUSOhm_fs?feature=oembed) The documentary later gets into its crossover into North America in the 2010s. Filmed at clubs and festivals, ‘Waiting for the Drop: Rise of the Superstar DJs’ sees appearances from familiar faces like Paul Oakenfold, Swedish House Mafia’s Sebastian Ingrosso, Carl Cox, Kaskade, Eva Shaw, and Nervo, among others. “EDM was a pivot point in modern youth culture, a time when Millennials, seeking something of their own, seized an opportunity to create a tribe. Crass commercialism infected that celebration as outsiders sought to profit. And the DJs and their enablers, long thirsting for legitimacy and cultural acceptance, leaned in — hard,” director and producer Barrionuevo [said](https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/edm-documentary-waiting-for-the-drop-kaskade-hardwell-cox-1236020895/) in a statement as per Billboard. ## Kygo: Back at the Bowl Kygo’s ‘Back at the Bowl’ concert film sees the star perform at the Hollywood Bowl as part of a world tour. Sam Wrench, who also directed ‘Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour’ and ‘Billie Eilish Live at the O2,’ directed this concert film. The visuals for ‘Kygo: Back at the Bowl’ have been shot in 8K using 18 cameras. From rare behind-the-scenes interviews to performances with collaborators, guest appearances, remixed and remastered sound, this event was filmed keeping CJ 4DPlex’s ScreenX for its limited worldwide theatrical release. [Kygo: Back at the Bowl - Official Trailer (Only In Theaters September 26)](https://www.youtube.com/embed/poFBrDDe1D0?feature=oembed) It included immersive visuals for the 270-degree panoramic view. “This film allows the audience to experience the performance like never before — feeling as though they’re seated inside the Hollywood Bowl, interacting with the music and artists in an entirely new way. It’s a game-changer for how music and film intersect, and how audiences engage with them,” [said](https://variety.com/2025/film/news/kygo-concert-movie-hollywood-bowl-1236397796/) Wrench, according to Variety. ## We Become One: The Power Of The Shared Musical Experience [We Become One: The Power Of The Shared Musical Experience](https://www.youtube.com/embed/EEwb-PiUMs4?feature=oembed) AlphaTheta, the parent company of Pioneer DJ, brings a follow-up to last year’s ‘The Evolution of Ibiza: Can the White Isle retain its legendary magic?’ In this documentary, Kikelomo Oludemi, a British-Nigerian DJ based in Berlin, hits the road in different parts of the world to speak to experts to find out “why people choose music as a vehicle to connect with others, appreciating it as a universal “language” that speaks to everyone.
