      abstract = {Electronic Cities: Music, Policies and Spaces in the 21st  Century is a welcome contribution to the urban turn in  popular music studies. It moves beyond the analysis of  styles and venues, setting musical practice within complex  networks of policy, economic history and metropolitan  politics. These fascinating case studies take us beyond the  self-proclaimed capitals of electronic music, into a rich  variety of cities whose abandoned urban spaces became  breeding grounds for music seeking to invent new futures.  Will Straw, Department of Art History and Communications  Studies, McGill University, Montreal This book examines  Electronic Dance Music (EDM) scenes in 18 cities across  Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Asia, North America and  Australia. It focuses on the historical development of  these scenes, with an emphasis on the post-2000 context,  including the COVID-19 pandemic and its far-reaching  effects. Expert contributors highlight the influence of  geographical contexts, as well as cultural and political  histories, in the development of mainstream EDM scenes and  underground Electronic Dance Music Cultures. This expansive  work offers additional insights on cultural and creative  policies, planning interventions and regulations associated  with nightlife management, and provides a detailed analysis  of current challenges inherent to the governance of EDM  scenes in contemporary cities.},
