Calvin Harris’ first ever job in London was at M&S in Clapham South.

Tru fax.

A friend who works in the industry shared a trade magazine article about “EDM”; how festival attendance was down and the Vegas clubs weren’t doing as well. That this boom era was coming to an end. I can’t vouch for it, mind, but I remember them making good points. This was over a year ago so it was not a COVID issue. I’ll see if I can find it but I don’t remember the magazine title unfortunately.

    After COVID everyone will be gagging to get back to festivals/clubs/EDM mega RAVEZ

      A lot of the people who were really into all that are starting to age out. The younger generation, being naturally contrarian, move on to different things. And then there’s social media. Hedonism is all but dead with the people who’ve grown up with Instagram and the like. They’re much more careful about how they appear online. They know that 8 mitsubishi-deep face on a Friday night could make for a very embarrassing Saturday morning. Shame, really, but it is what it is.

          If you are 8 pills deep on Friday night you aren’t going to be too concerned about anything on sat morning, jy. Absolutely still at full flight then!
