Community and Continuity w/ Eris Drew and Octo Octa (interview)

For decades, the culture of dance music primarily unfolded in clandestine spaces, its participants forging community and sharing knowledge via IRL experiences and face-to-face interactions. But how can that process continue when our lives are increasingly being lived online? Dance music lifers Eris Drew and Octo Octa are actively working to answer that question. In this in-depth conversation, they’ll discuss some of the methodologies they’ve developed, both online and in the real-world, to push their public communications beyond mere marketing and self-promotion, while also ensuring that their rave wisdom gets passed on to the next generation.
