CEDM, or Christian Electronic Dance Music, is a genre of Christian music. Notable artists include Bryson Price, Capital Kings and Soul Glo Activatur.

Styles and Derivatives
There are generally two styles of CEDM; Christian Electronic and Christian Dubstep.

Christian Dubstep
Bryson Price is one of the main Christian Dubstep figures. He is heavily influenced by Skrillex. Other artists have entered the subgenre too, such as fe5a, Matthew Parker, and more.

Christian Electronic artists such as Capital Kings, Owl City and Kye Kye have more of a Pop sound. Also a surprisingly large amount of artists from this subgenre tend not to take kindly to the Christian Music label, similar to notable rappers Andy Mineo and Lecrae.

Some CEDM songs sound very repetitive. These are called Christian Trance. Good examples of this are Resurface Instrumental by Karac and It's a Trap by DJ Official, though It's a Trap could qualify as Christian Dubstep.

Critical Response
While CEDM isn't very popular, many Christians long for Christian Dubstep and other CEDM derivitaves.

Capital King's debut album was highly praised for its upbeat style. Their album impacted the Christian music culture so much that now many artists have created CEDM sangs, including Mandisa (With Overcomer and Joy Unspeakable) and tobyMac (with Me Without You, Mac Daddy and Unstoppable).

 * Done. I made a few additional tone and formatting adjustments, and certainly further improvement would still be good — but yes, that's much better than what was happening before, so I've moved it into place and removed the page protection. Thanks for the effort! Bearcat (talk) 22:08, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

CEDM → Christian Electronic Dance Music – Article names don't usually use acronyms. Contemporary Christian music is not at CCM and it's better known as the latter. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:55, 20 June 2015 (UTC)

Support - support move, it's clearly the term supported in the sources cited. Flat Out (talk) 05:02, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I feel we should keep it CEDM. CEDM is pretty much the official name. Christian Electronic Dance Music is kinda... Well, long. --Westdog01 (talk) 23:48, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
 * It's not the official name. Looking at the articles used as reference, none mention CEDM. mentions "Christian dance music", "electronic dance music" is mentioned at . As mentioned no article at CCM and I'll add no article at EDM, but there is one a contemporary Christian music (already linked) and one at electronic dance music. I think the choice is simple. Walter Görlitz (talk) 23:55, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Support: full names should be used unless acronyms are preponderant, which in this case doesn't seem to be the case. Best, FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 18:29, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Why are the words all capitalized? — Jeraphine (talk) 10:40, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Good call. Should not be. It should be Christian electronic dance music. Walter Görlitz (talk) 13:30, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Support move to Christian electronic dance music. Capitalization is not required as this is a musical genre. Sovereign  / Sentinel 13:17, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Unconstructive edits
,, and This is the most recent edit. I pinged you four because you have made important edits in the past and I would like a sanity check to determine reverting is needed or not. Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:49, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree that a revert is needed, but to what? The previous versions aren't much better.-- 3family6 ( Talk to me   &#124;  See what I have done  ) 04:59, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Interesting point. Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:35, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pinging me and making me aware of the edits. I appreciate the edits but I want to keep the article content the way that it was, or improve it. The edit took content away from it. I did like the changes made to the infobox though. Eventually we should add sections about the various subgenres of CEDM and discuss the various changes major CEDM artists have gone through, such as Capital Kings breaking up and Matthew Parker's alias Twilight Meadow.
