Vacek, Vojtěch ; Hroch, Miloš (advisor) ; Groman, Martin (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the role of a printed music media in the process of commercialization of electronic dance music in the Czech Republic in the early 2000s. The research is based on the theoretical approach of subcultural studies, more specifically on the Chicago school. The theoretical part is focused on the definition of terms such as subculture, moral panic, subcultural capital and commercialization. The empirical part is focused on qualitative research of selected media, consisting of content analysis of contemporary periodicals and semi-structured interviews with selected media editors. In total, 134 issues were analyzed and four interviews were conducted with respondents as part of the research. The results show the role of selected magazines as subcultural media, which significantly contributed to the development of electronic dance music in our country. Using the obtained results, the work defines the main events and meanings by which the selected media influenced the dance music scene of that time. 1
