The hipster paradox in Electronic Dance Music is the phenomenon thatcommercial success is collectively considered illegitimate while serious andaspiring professional musicians strive for it. We study this behavioral dilemmausing digital traces of performing live and releasing music as they are storedin the \textit{Resident Advisor}, \textit{Juno Download}, and \textit{Discogs}databases from 2001-2018. We construct network snapshots following a formalsociological approach based on bipartite networks, and we use network positionsto explain success in regression models of artistic careers. We find evidencefor a structural trade-off among success and autonomy. Musicians in EDM embedinto exclusive performance-based communities for autonomy but, in earliercareer stages, seek the mainstream for commercial success. Our approachhighlights how Computational Social Science can benefit from a close connectionof data analysis and theory.
