What has 110 to 150 beats per minute, played in sets by various DJ's, where the music is non stop for hours at a time? If you said electronic music, you're right. Trance, House, Jungle, Deep House, Ambient, Hardcore, Industrial... and this is only mentioning a few of the genre’s that are known collectively as electronic music.
Yet the evolution of the genre (like many things time has changed) has lost some of it's roots, meanings and perhaps even traditions.
This upcoming Monday, we're going to be talking with professional DJ, Ian Mariano, who has been a dj for more than 30 years. From settings of small parties to residency in major clubs, from rave's in the middle of nowhere to places you might never think, the history he expands on is both diverse and immense all at the same time.
His own evolution through the years as compared to his playing music for thousands of people might seem to some people like he leads a double life, but it's not. It’s part of a culture that not many people either know about or have heard of before.
Join us as we find out what dancing through the years might mean, Monday at 9pm EST.
As an ‘After the Show’ kind of note, if you are interested in how the electronic dance music scene in Cleveland Ohio (as well as Akron Ohio) began and evolved, Ian was instrumental in forming that with a club called Metropolis. The conversation might seem like a stroll down memory lane, yet it is filled with rich history of the beginnings for a genre of music that would change the lives of thousands of people.
