Review of We Are Your Friends (2015) by Ben P — 30 Nov 2015
Great movie. Dives into the relatively new world of electronic music & "DJing". Putting to bed the stigma of how DJ's don't actually do anything but stand up in on stage and press a few buttons.
Aside from your above average insight into the world of EDM, it follows a group of friends right out of high school. I believe the plot following the group of 4 friends is extremely relevant & accurate. The struggles that plague teens and the life changing decisions that are put on them at such a young age, is a very captivating pillar of the plot.
So whether your into EDM music or are just looking for a fun/up-beat movie to watch with your friends I think this is a great picture. enjoy!

Major Points:
- Good insight into electronic music and what it takes to succeed..
- Very accurate portrayal of 4 friends hustling & finding their way in this world.
- Not at all too: "music/tech heavy" for your non-musicians, but put into terms that can be universally understood.
- Great overall dynamic between the characters, and again very realistic for this day and age.
Lastly I ended up watching this with my own mother, to try and explain what its like going to all these festivals (Ultra, EDC &.
