    Just give it a little time and maybe try to setup a smaller EDM gig yourself somewhere in a cheap venue just to get your name out. Like a expanded house party.

    Do as many gigs as you can get especially if you are doing parties on campus and campus events. Find top 40 and hip hop songs that have been remixed with EDM songs. Mashups / bootlegs, ect which ten just to be EDM tracks that sample lyrics or melodies from the radio hits. Spin those instead of just the radio versions. Many people won’t be able to notice a difference if you aren’t going wild playing really heavy EDM style songs. Then when you have them hooked and dancing to your top 40 remixes drop in something they don’t know and see how they react to it.

    Depending on your crowd they may go wild for it.

    Check out 3lau or r3hab (top 40 remixes), and wick-it the instigator (more trap / southern rap remixes) and go from there.

    Good luck.
