A platform to discover electronic music, artists and events.
RA was founded out of a passion for electronic music. Our platform, which started in 2001, helps people discover music, artists and events. Over the years RA has evolved and grown, but our ethos has remained the same. As an independent company staffed entirely by dance music lovers, we're dedicated to shining light on the passionate people and communities around the world that make electronic music tick.
We believe that local scenes are at electronic music's core. It's in these communities where DJs get their first gigs, where promoters throw their first parties. It's where like-minded people with a shared passion for electronic music connect and collaborate, forging new ideas, sounds, stories and friendships.
Dance floors are incredible places. They bring people together for moments of shared joy and inspiration. They provide safe spaces for the people who need them. There is immense power in the positivity and creativity of electronic music.
Our purpose.
RA exists to champion electronic music culture. At RA's core is an editorial platform. It's our aim to cover the scene with both accuracy and warmth, shining light on the best electronic artists, events and communities around the world through a blend of news, features, reviews, films and podcasts. We work with a global team of writers and contributors who represent their local scenes on RA with depth and nuance. Our multimedia journalism captures the voices, faces and stories of the past, present and future of electronic music, creating an archive of cultural value not only for current readers but future generations.
Our mission.
RA's mission is to bring together the world's electronic music communities. Our contributor network participates in local communities around the world, ensuring we support and represent local scenes in a genuine way. Our country and city managers are actively involved in the communities they represent. They strive to help local artists, promoters and other members of the community get the most from RA, taking on ideas and feedback for how we can improve.
