Thirty years into this thing we do, and I'm still hearing the same tired argument: electronic music isn't political; it's just escapism, just hedonism, just 4/4 music and ravers preaching PLUR in dark rooms. If I had a quid for every time someone's tried to tell me (or I see it as a comment on social media) dance music exists in some apolitical vacuum, I'd have enough to fund a proper artist fee for every DJ who's ever played a benefit night.

The truth is considerably more complex, and infinitely more interesting. Electronic music has been political since its inception, born as it was in the marginalised communities of Detroit, Chicago and New York during an era when being Black, gay or working class meant your voice rarely got heard anywhere else. The dancefloor wasn't just a place to lose yourself. It was a place to find yourself, and to find others like you.

Understanding this requires us to reframe what we mean by 'political' in the first place. We've become conditioned to think of politics only in terms of elections, policy debates and Westminster posturing. But activism and politics have been woven into music for centuries. The question isn't whether music can be political. It's how we've allowed ourselves to forget that it always has been.
Matthias Frick first self-released music as Sieren - his mother’s maiden name - over a decade ago, back in 2011, but his music has long stretched towards the past: in the mid-aughts, his productions dipped into the sun-kissed sounds of trance, and in the first half of the 2010s, he donned his current alias and fell in with the dreamy world of post-dubstep, which is itself a veritable constellation of sounds, ideologies, and genres. He hasreleased music on labels such as R&S Records and Christian Löffler’s Ki Records.

That melting-pot approach is clear in his new releases on imprint Friends of Friends, a potent distillation of umpteen styles that nevertheless feels like something entirely new: it’s 8-a.m. rave-ups and 11 p.m. ambience; it’s 1992 and 2026; it’s both sides of the Atlantic with somewhere in between thrown in for good measure; it’s field recordings ripped from a club night that never happened.

Cercle Records kicks off the year with the release of HVOB ’s “Attention”, reimagined by Hernan Cattaneo & Mercurio
There’s a conversation that happens in every green room, every studio session, every after-hours wind-down. A producer mentions their track became an underground anthem in Ibiza but they never saw a penny. A DJ who’s played 300 gigs that year shows you their royalty statement: £47. An artist with millions of streams and packed dancefloors who can barely make rent. We’ve all heard these stories because we’ve all lived some version of them.

For thirty years, I’ve watched this pattern repeat. The anecdotes pile up, the frustration simmers, but hard data remains conspicuously absent. Collection societies point to complex licensing frameworks. Producers shrug and assume that’s just how it works. Venues pay their fees and trust the money ends up somewhere appropriate. Everyone operates on informed speculation and the occasional horror story.

Throwback Thursday - Surrender

What made 1999 particularly interesting was the state of electronic music. The Prodigy, Fatboy Slim, Daft Punk and the Chemical Brothers had successfully brought rave culture into the mainstream.

Major labels were investing in anything with a breakbeat, rock magazines were running features on drum machines, and electronica was being discussed as the new alternative music now that Britpop had largely run its course. The timing allowed Simons and Rowlands to either repeat the formula or try something different.

We’re opening up a new chapter at Decoded Magazine, and it starts with building a proper community space. We’re launching our Discord “server” (i.e. community group) – a place where DJs, producers, promoters, music fans, and industry folk can connect away from the chaos of social media.

Let’s be honest: social media has become exhausting. The algorithms, the arguments, the spam, the politics bleeding into every conversation. We reckon it’s time for something different. This Discord community is about getting back to what matters: the music, the culture, and genuine connections with people who share that passion.
