Maniac Magazine Issue 2

 EDM Maniac is proud to unveil the second issue of Maniac Magazine, our collectible print magazine dedicated to the world of electronic dance music, festivals, travel, and more.

For 14 years, our social media and web platform has kept music lovers digitally connected to the global dance scene, but the true magic of raving lives in real-world experiences. That’s why we created Maniac Magazine, to celebrate and explore dance music culture and community the way it's done best: IRL. 

Across cover stories dedicated to EDM’s foremost music figures, conversations with top artists and industry players, big-picture features, larger-than-life photo spreads, and interactive games and puzzles, this passion project immortalizes the best of our community in print. 

Issue 02, “The Legacy Issue,” shares stories of dancefloor innovators past and present whose work provides a blueprint for the future, and honors the lasting impact of artists and industry professionals, including our sophomore cover artist, Kaskade, and late EDM Maniac founder Devin Lezama, who tragically passed away in July 2025.

Born and raised in New York with roots in Trinidad, Devin moved to Los Angeles and founded EDM Maniac in 2012, growing the company from a Facebook page into an events company, a respected news source, and a globally cherished social media community. He believed this magazine was its next great chapter. In his absence, it carries on his legacy and vision for the future of the community he loved so much.

At its core, Maniac Magazine is all about giving ravers a tangible, collectible piece of dance music culture to take on their festival journey. This issue will be distributed as a free festival memento for attendees at EDC Las Vegas 2026 (EDC, Camp EDC, and Hotel EDC).

Maniac Magazine was launched in May 2025 at EDC Las Vegas, where we shared nearly 10,000 free copies with fans, featuring our debut cover star, Rezz.
