New ASCA Research Groups coordinated by Oliver Seibt and Ian Pocervina. | The “Amsterdam Electronic Dance Music Research Group” is interested in a variety of topics that fall under the umbrella term of electronic dance music culture. Amsterdance departs from the field of popular music studies, from which it sets out an exploration of the spatial and social resonances that are generated by the sounds of electronic dance music. Based in Amsterdam, the group also traces the music’s global footprints in an effort to put both local and translocal occurrences in conversation with each another.
