I started on my journey on the E.D.M. trail when I was just a naive 14 Year old 8th grader. At the epicenter of my interest was dubstep, I loved everything it offered: A wobbly, unorthodox bassline, contrasting deep undertones with stark, synthy, overtones; and of course it was underground. My music taste were forever altered, and my course for becoming a E.D.M. journalist was set in stone. Now I enjoy writing for the magazine, and when not doing the former I am typically at a rave or a festival. This has helped me get an above average grasp on electronically produced music. Here’s some highlighted articles from this months issue: A Day In the Life of a Festi-head, Steve Aoki: an Interview about cake, and lastly Club drugs pose new dangers as E.D.M. increases in popularity. As you read through A Day In the Life of a Festi-Head you will be taken aback by this first hand account of the Electric Forest music festival. In this comprehensive report, our author will take you through his day from getting out of bed and going to the on site lake, all the way to his body collapse like a rag doll on his cot. A very interesting look into a subculture many never experience firsthand.
Steve Aoki talks with us about his current tour and record deal with Waka Flaka Flame. Later on in the interview we get to the bottom of his cake throwing obsession, and than it’s on to how he has personally influenced the EDM scene.
As our monthly research article we bring you a study and consecutive paper that poses a possible correlation between drug use and the rise of EDM as a whole. This enlightening article also features a lengthy harm reduction section which talks about safe drug use and the promotion of proper etiquette.
I would like to thank you for reading this magazine. It has been a dream of mine to be able to write to this subculture since I discovered it. So, again thank you all and have a great October. Stay Safe, Stay Smart, Stay Suave.
