Electronic music is more popular than ever, but the money comes in, and disappears. Club-goers don’t have enough of it, artists don’t have enough of it, and DIY promoters don’t have enough of it. Music becomes centralised, clubbing becomes gentrified, and art gets stagnant; breaking up healthy communities and becoming less safe. quantity is prioritised over quantity. DJs don’t get longer than an hour (if that), and bands don’t get paid. The time constriction is arm-twisted further by conservative frameworks of the urban day-night cycle. It’s actively encouraged by shortening attention spans and the dominance of short-form content. All of this ultimately exerts enormous pressure on the real, lovely people that occupy these spaces, and the influence of capital on creativity is huge. Sound familiar?
