Politics of the Dance Floor: Reset

The music industry is dominated by neoliberal structures; large
corporations hold the monopoly. How can the gatekeepers’ power be
redistributed? Is it possible to collectivize mainstream digital
platforms? And what role do class, privilege and representation
play? The third episode of the Politics of the Dance Floor podcast
explores the economic aspects of club culture. The producer,
performer and astrophysicist houaïda speaks with the founder of an
independent communications agency Melissa Taylor, the label manager
Nicky Böhm and the DJ and musicologist He Zhao about social change
and the responsibility of the dance community. Tracks: Caspa:
