ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC AGAINST DICTATORSHIP: TECHNO THERAPY AS RITUALIZED PERFORMANCE

Summary/Abstract: This essay will focus on the relationship between ritualized performance and transportative experiences theoretically conceptualized by Richard Schechner, and the party ,,Techno therapy“ performed by DJ duo Noise Destruction in Novi Sad, in 1994. As a genre still shrouded in secrecy, at least within the local academic community, electronic dance music presents a broad and inspirational field for research. Not only that relatively new form of popular culture is in question which resists fitting only and exclusively into frames of musical performance, but it also gets characteristics of transitional phenomenon. The phenomenon is suitable for thinking, analysis and discussing through the lenses of interdisciplinarity. In pop-cultural shape and sub-cultural meanings, sound/music and performance/theatre become part of the unique image while their unity emerges as dominant.
