INTRODUCTION FACTS 2017 The female:pressure FACTS survey is a biennial project undertaken by volunteer members of the female:pressure network. Starting in 2013 [https://femalepressure.wordpress.com/facts-graphic/], the FACTS survey was initiated to address and quantify the deficit in equal opportunity and visibility for female artists in the electronic music scene. The result of the 2013 FACTS survey indicated that barely 10% of artists listed in festival line-ups worldwide are female--and opened up an international discussion about the state of women in electronic music. In 2015 [https://femalepressure.wordpress.com/facts-survey2015/], we conducted the sur- vey anew. Although the inequities within the industry had become a popular topic of debate since the 2013 edition, the 2015 FACTS survey demonstrated the continued lack of women on music festival line-ups. While this phenomenon is receiving more media coverage today than ever before, we believe that measuring trends through the FACTS survey is necessary to understand the true state of inequity in the electronic music scene and to hold decision-makers accountable within the industry. We embarked on FACTS 2017 with the goal of assessing the female-male-mixed [i.e., acts comprised of both male and female artists] gender proportions among artists performing at music festivals in the years 2015, 2016 and the first half of 2017 with a focus on the year 2016. Even though we included many new festivals for this year’s edition, our emphasis re- mains on the regions of Europe and North America. In gathering data from these years, we aim to assess both time trends from 2012 to 2017 and country specific female-male-mixed gender proportions. With 229 festival editions, it is the most comprehensive FACTS survey yet. For this year’s FACTS survey, our team asked each one of the included festivals to participate by submitting their own numbers. Twelve of the 133 festivals responded and filled out our data collection form. In surveying more festivals in more countries than ever before, we may see the extent to which inequity is a systemic issue. Structural sexism perpetuates inequality by creating barriers and disincentives for women, which limits women’s success in the arts to genres and media aligned with the status quo.* Although progress is certainly being made with respect to the visibility of women in the industry since the 2013 FACTS survey, we are reminded that mere coverage or visibility can not sub- stitute for systematic change. Cultural change is indeed happening, as we see overt sexism and prejudices “called out”, but structural change is necessary to truly addressing underrepre- sentation.** As musicologist Elizabeth Keenan argues, solutions must simultaneously address gaps in education and access for female artists. Our FACTS survey, like the female:pressure network, is the result of grassroots activism--con- ducted independently from any for-profit organization and without external funding. The 2017 edition of the survey was undertaken by six core volunteers, nicknamed the “Trouble Makers”, with the aid of seventeen helpers. *https://femalepressure.wordpress.com/2017/08/22/womens-representation-in-music/ **https://www.residentadvisor.net/news.aspx?id=39316 3 female:pressure 2. METHODS FACTS 2017 Aims and Objectives The aim of the present survey was to assess the gender distribution among artists performing at electronic music festivals around the world. Specifically, we wanted to - assess the female-male-mixed gender proportions among artists performing at electronic music festivals taking place in the year 2015 up to mid-year of 2017 with focus on the year 2016 - assess time trends in these female-male-mixed gender proportions from 2012 to 2017 - assess differences in these female-male-mixed gender proportions for regions and countries. Data Collection Data was collected for all countries worldwide with no restrictions. However, the focus was on festivals taking place in Europe and North America. We used a standardised online form to collect single sets of data for each festival edition. The survey’s focus is on electronic music. Festivals were included if they feature a mainly elec- tronic music program. However, once a festival was included into the survey, all acts were count- ed [regardless of their musical genre]. Potential festivals were searched for online. The search was performed on [but was not limited to] the following sites: https://www.festicket.com/magazine/top-techno-festivals-europe/ https://www.festicket.com/magazine/top-20-music-festivals-Europe/ https://www.festicket.com/magazine/top-10-electronic-music-festivals-uk/ http://icasnetwork.org http://ecasnetwork.org https://www.residentadvisor.net/festivals.aspx http://shapeplatform.eu/festival/ https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2017/apr/03/10-best-music-festivals-europe-spain-france-croatia https://www.residentadvisor.net/features/2939 For each festival, the following data were collected: - Name of festival - Country - City - Date - Number of female acts in the line-up - Number of male acts in the line-up - Number of mixed [female/male] acts in the line-up - Number of unidentified acts in the line-up The number of acts were counted per slot of stage time. For example: Dasha Rush & Donato Dozzy back-to-back DJ-set: categorized as 1 mixed act. Electric indigo [audio] & Thomas Wagensommerer [video] a/v set: categorized as 1 mixed act. Lucrecia Dalt & Gudrun Gut live: categorized as 1 female act. ‘Acts’ include musical and visual artists [if listed in the line-up], with the exception of CTM [Ger- many] which also includes panel and discourse acts. 4 female:pressure FACTS 2017 For the purpose of this survey, gender data is distinguished and collected only as male or female. Transgender artists are assigned according to their chosen gender. If the gender of a trans person is difficult to decide, the person should be listed according to the pronoun s/he uses for themselves. In addition, articles about the artist might be checked to judge, if this person is generally referred to as she or he. Cis male artists with female aliases/monikers were regarded as male artists. In cases which could not be resolved, artists were assigned ‘un- identified’. Data was provided by Trouble Makers members, by female:pressure members, or by festival or- ganisers. Festival organisers were emailed a standardized letter explaining the background and the purpose of the survey along with an invitation to enter their festival data into a short online form. To minimize data entry errors, we were able to verify about one third of all festival editions by double data entry. Data Analysis Data was analysed descriptively. Female, male, mixed, and unidentified gender proportions are presented numerically and graphically: overall, by year, country, and by region. In addition, trends in time for specific festivals [with data for several time points] are presented. Mean [i.e. average] percentages are calculated by adding the number of acts for the specific gender divided by the total number of acts [times 100] for each festival. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this document may not add up precisely to 100%. Festivals were also categorized and analysed by size [defined by the total number of acts]. To see if gender proportions depend on the size of the festival we used the number of total acts to categorize festivals into 3 groups: small [up to 25 acts], medium [26-50 acts], or large [more than 50 acts], as well as into 5 more refined groups: very small [less than 20 acts], small [20-29 acts], medium [30-45 acts], large [46-90 acts], or very large [more than 90 acts]. 3. RESULTS In the new survey, we collected data for 229 festival editions [of 133 different festivals] from 2015 to mid-year 2017. The focus was on festivals in 2016 with 116 festival editions and on 2017 with 48 festival editions [s. Table 1]. In total, the present and all previous surveys comprised, we col- lected data for 322 festival editions [182 festivals] from 2012 to June 30, 2017. Table 1.

This study will look at the transmission of music teaching and learning that takes place in a more informal, musical 1 environment, namely at a popular music festival. In particular, it will discuss the OM music festival, which has taken place for the last six years in northern Ontario, Canada. Through in-depth interviews with four people, individual musical experiences are explored. These individuals’ recollections help to demonstrate that there are unique forms of the teaching and learning of musics from a variety of cultures and genres that take place at the OM festival.

  • Drug Use and Nightlife: More Than Just Dance Music Tina Van Havere1*, Wouter Vanderplasschen2, Jan Lammertyn3, Eric Broekaert4 and Mark Bellis5
    Van Havere et al. Substance Abuse Treatment, Prevention, and Policy 2011, 6:18 http://www.substanceabusepolicy.com/content/6/1/18 RESEARCH Open Access Drug use and nightlife: More than just dance music Tina Van Havere1*, Wouter Vanderplasschen2, Jan Lammertyn3, Eric Broekaert4 and Mark Bellis5 Abstract Background: Research over the last decade has focused almost exclusively on the association between electronic music and MDMA (3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine or “ecstasy”) or other stimulant drug use in clubs. Less attention has been given to other nightlife venues and music preferences, such as rock music or southern/funky music. This study aims to examine a broader spectrum of nightlife, beyond dance music. It looks at whether certain factors influence the frequency of illegal drug and alcohol use: the frequency of going to certain nightlife venues in the previous month (such as, pubs, clubs or goa parties); listening to rock music, dance music or southern and funky music; or sampling venues (such as, clubs, dance events or rock festivals). The question of how these nightlife variables influence the use of popular drugs like alcohol, MDMA, cannabis, cocaine and amphetamines is addressed. Methods: The study sample consisted of 775 visitors of dance events, clubs and rock festivals in Belgium. Study participants answered a survey on patterns of going out, music preferences and drug use. Odds ratios were used to determine whether the odds of being an illegal substance user are higher for certain nightlife-related variables. Furthermore, five separate ordinal regression analyses were used to investigate drug use in relation to music preference, venues visited during the last month and sampling venue.
