Mejores Prácticas

• •Prioritize "Authenticity" in Every Message: Always use language that reinforces the brand's genuine connection to the scene. Use terms like "original," "authentic," "from the archives," and "official collaboration."
• •Speak as a Peer, Not a Corporation: Write in a first-person plural voice ("we were there"). This builds a direct, personal connection with an audience that values shared experience.
• •Educate and Share History: Use copy to tell a story. Whether it's the history of a specific rave flyer, an artist, or a music genre, every product description is an opportunity to reinforce the brand's role as a cultural preserver.
• •Emphasize Niche Over Generality: Avoid generic "rave" language. Instead, use specific terms like "acid house," "jungle," "hardcore," and name-drop iconic events like "Helter Skelter" and "Telepathy" to attract the target audience.
• •Highlight Value Beyond Product: Always connect the product to a larger value—nostalgia, history, art, or community. A customer isn't just buying a t-shirt; they're buying "a little piece of authentic rave nostalgia."

Percepción Social

Within its specific niche of old-school UK rave enthusiasts, it is perceived as Legitimate, Respected, and Culturally Significant, largely due to endorsements from key organizations like Raindance. For the general public, visibility and perception are low to non-existent.
