Club Culture No Longer Dead Shocker



Trend-setting British newspaper the Observer hailed ‘the rebirth of dance culture’ this week in an article examining the recent shootings in Ibiza.



“First reports that Ibiza's club scene was experiencing its busiest season of the last few years reached suppliers acting for the leading drug syndicates last month,” the paper suggested in an article headlined ‘the rave craze returns’,



“The response was immediate. Scores of dealers are thought to have been sent from the Costa del Sol and Britain to Ibiza.”



The newspaper’s comments emerged as rival ‘quality’ paper The Sunday Times also decreed that dance culture is back from the dead again anointing ‘rave’ as their top choice in their Style section’s influential Going Up Column.

.

“New tunes, new renegade parties, new day-glo,” the Times raved, “One, two, three... acieeed.”



Both papers’ assertions came over 18 months after the Daily Telegraph decided much the same, saying "while UK club music is not the era-defining superstar-DJ led movement it was in the mid 90s, reports of its death are exaggerated," a point sociology lecturer turned uber-cool producer Ewan Pearson picked up on at the same time.



"I always thought that "dance music is dead' attitude was highly premature,” Ewan told Skrufff last year, “I don't think it works like that anymore; that notion that you have a musical movement, then you have a revolution and everything changes is an old fashioned model."
