Description: In episode 95 of the I'M PEAKING Podcast, we're joined by California Assembly Member Mark Gonzalez: the driving force behind officially recognizing June as EDM Month in California!! We dive into how rave culture has evolved over the years, why the government is finally starting to take electronic music seriously, and what the future could look like for festivals, nightlife, and the dance music community. From the economic impact of live events to breaking the stigma surrounding rave culture, this conversation challenged a lot of our own assumptions. Whether you're curious about how EDM is being recognized at the state level or just want to hear a politician who genuinely understands the culture, this is an episode you won't want to miss!!👇 Let us know in the comments: What's one change you'd like to see for the future of rave culture and what does PLUR mean to you?
