The project aims to link the past modes of communication utilized by participants in electronic dance music (EDM) club cultures and subcultures to the current practice of using various social media platforms as a means of information conveyance about musicians, producers, DJs, events, and industry-related news. It will attempt to determine to what degree social media platforms influence electronic dance music culture (EDMC), the positive and negative effects social media have on EDMC, and whether the transition to digital communication modes is absolute. Finally, it will pose the question as to whether any further research on social media usage among EDM fans will be or has been performed since the recent media consensus that the mainstream EDM bubble has burst, and that North America is on the precipice of a post-mainstream EDM future.
