Rave music may either refer to the late 1980s/early 1990s genres of house, hardcore, breakbeat, acid house and techno, the first genres of music to be played at rave parties, or to any other genre of electronic dance music (EDM) that may be played at a rave.

Direct action occurs when a group takes an action which is intended to reveal an existing problem, highlight an alternative, or demonstrate a possible solution to a social issue.

This can include nonviolent and less often violent activities which target persons, groups, or property deemed offensive to the direct action participants.

Examples of non-violent direct action (also known as nonviolent resistance or civil resistance) can include sit-ins, strikes, workplace occupations, blockades, or hacktivism, while violent direct action may include political violence or assaults.

Tactics such as sabotage and property destruction may be considered violent if people are hurt in the action.

By contrast, electoral politics, diplomacy, negotiation, and arbitration are not usually described as direct action, as they are politically mediated.

Non-violent actions are sometimes a form of civil disobedience, and may involve a degree of intentional law-breaking where persons place themselves in arrestable situations in order to make a political statement but other actions (such as strikes) may not violate criminal law.

An online magazine is a magazine published on the Internet, through bulletin board systems and other forms of public computer networks.
