Those people also aren't bringing attention to the media and goverment like
alot of people on other drugs are. But as you said this is about music, not
violence.
Where I am we have very little to no "IDM" scene, we have a rave scene. The
reason i feel that the drugs and what i mentioned earlier are killing it is
because with new goverment regulations and restrictions in my area (New
England), this is causing promoters to hire more security, get more permits
and follow more laws or else face the chance of getting fined and or
persicuted. This causes ticket prices to go up since the performers won't
lower thier prices. Due to the increase in ticket prices, attendances at
shows has been getting lower causing promoters to loose money (a local
promoter just lost roughly $10k at his last event and is debating retiring
from throwing events). Promoters loosing money makes them want to quit, and
I don't blame them. When they, the promoters, quit theres less show's, less
bookings for the performers and less people being exposed to various forms
of dance music. When performers have to get real jobs to support themselves
(i know alot that live off producing and performing) that gives them less
time to dedicate to music and slows down the production and evolution of it.
