Abstract
A denominada música eletrônica de dança pode ser caracterizada como um subcampo de produção musical compreendendo uma rede de agentes que inclui músicos (sobretudo DJs/produtores), editoras discográficas, discotecas e salas de espetáculos, lojas de discos especializadas, promotores e programadores de espetáculos e canais de mídia especializados (imprensa impressa e online e rádio). Tendo recolhido informações por meio de entrevistas semidirigidas com membros do staff e pela análise de sites oficiais na web e páginas bandcamp, comparo nesse artigo três editoras dedicadas à música eletrônica de dança (Príncipe, Groovement e Discotexas) tomando como dimensões de análise valores e princípios estéticos, suas políticas de distribuição e sua relação com outros mediadores, como certas associações culturais e espaços noturnos (discotecas e salas de espetáculos) e os meios de comunicação (imprensa e rádio).
The so called electronic dance music could be described as an international subfield of music production comprising a network of agents which includes musicians (mostly DJs/producers), record labels, clubs and venues, record stores, booking agents and concerts programmers and specialized media (online and printed press and radio stations). Gathering information through interviews conducted with staff members and some analysis of websites and bandcamp pages I will compare three electronic dance music micro-labels in Portugal in relation to their aesthetic values and principles, distribution policies, and relationship to other music mediators such as cultural associations, venues and the media (press and radio).
