Control… Release : dance music scenes’ reflections on a pandemic
Richard Anderson
Documento (.pdf)
AbstractThis paper chronicles the reflections of participants within dance music scenes regarding the impact of COVID-19 regulations. Drawing upon analysis of ethnographic data from Facebook Group discussions, an online survey, and interviews conducted during the UK’s ‘lockdown’ it reveals the extent of dancing’s significance and value at a time when prohibited. The paper also looks in depth at the discourses surrounding reactions to illegal raves in UK warehouses and fields during the summer of 2020 as some people sought ways to dance, and illicitly escape pandemic restriction’s social controls. Such discussions are framed within societal theories surrounding the broader, oppositional ethical stances which underpinned the pandemic experience. The paper also examines dancing’s importance for well-being in the lives of clubbers and their articulation of an anticipation of release, and a return to the dancefloor.
