bitch city
Localities might play a part, because all of the topic of discussion so far has revolved around London/UK i presume?
Isn't the major political theme within dance/clubbing culture since its inception in the late 70's to have ultimate freedom to be whoever you want to be. Something that specifically attracts working-class and dispossessed (?) communities because of their lack of voice within greater society. And isn't Berghain in Berlin somewhat of a clubbing utopia where you are encouraged to be whoever you want to be as long as it doesn't conflict with anyone else's enjoyment? The amount of times you read in house/techno dj's interviews about how free Berlin is and how you could never replicate that for dance music anywhere else.
