Elizabeth Muirhead @ Dance Music 101

Elizabeth Muirhead is the Head of Legal & Business Affairs of BMAT® | Music Innovation


Life: when was the moment you figured out that Dance Music was meant to you?

When Carl Cox gestured to everyone to get down on the ground, minutes before dropping I Can’t Get No Sleep by Faithless, on the Space old terrace in 2005.


Laugh: when was the last time you had real fun?

Singing I Just Can’t Get Enough by Depeche Mode with Emi, Emilio and Sarah, also from BMAT Music Innovation, karaoke-style but with live band when celebrating the company’s 10th anniversary at the end of March.


Love: name the one thing you love more than anything – and why is that?

The Parents, formerly known as Wendy and Dave, because they are, quite literally, the best.


Past: name a significant moment in your career in Dance Music – and why is that?

Being elected to the Executive Board of the Association for Electronic Music.


Present: what do you think that is trending today in music, clubs and festivals?

Personally, exploration and travel. With services like Spotify I love finding new music and then seeing them live and it’s probably made me more open to going to gigs suggested by friends when I’m not familiar with artists - most recently attending a death metal event. Then there’s travel. I suppose they go hand in hand. I’m looking forward to experiencing Primavera Sound in Porto, Portugal this summer for example - though that is not so new but more and more are looking outside of their own countries.


Future: where is industry heading in the years to come?

Heading towards connecting the dots. There is a huge amount of music out there but finding what you love and having those amazing musical experiences with like-minded individuals in magical party settings, is something that isn’t always so easy to come by.
