jonattonyeah Deep East Oakland is another story.

yeah i learned about that from too short lol. i’ll check that doc out, thanks.

jonattonyeah

303abuser too short

LEGEND. Him and Mac Dre (RIP) are Town royalty.

And yeah the doc is good. The end is pretty hard to watch. For me, anyway. But I’m more sensitive than many. The number of people filmed who ended up murdered over the course of making it is just tragic.

I think it’s impossible to pick one year. 1993, 94, 96 and 98 were absolute belters.

LT42 Dan, you once had a thread my friend. My condolences.

Lol!

I only started in 89 but it was 90/91 that i got really into it. Went to a rave every week all over the country,travelling up in a convoy of cars, arriving at a massive rave and seeing lasers shooting across a field, hearts pounding or queuing outside a club and hearing that thud thud of the music and knowing full well you’re in for another good night.

Dubman Techno Trance - what a savage track that was, 1990 was another great year, Lots of time spent on the M25 and in service station car parks waiting for the venue. Fab days indeed

LT42

Dubman Loved the NJOI stuff, played this to death at the time.

jonattonyeah

Dubman hearts pounding

Yup. We used to call them “rave jitters”. That feeling in your stomach as you’re on your way, knowing you’re going to be mashed and having a blast in a few hours.

Techno trance was a big one for me too. First heard it on Key 103.. Stu Allan. Went into Spin Inn records in Manchester to get it.

I can’t remember if i saw them live. I did see Adamski, Guru Josh loads of times.

ArchimedesQ

Dubman saw Guru Josh at Slough Centre around the time of Infinity - think I saw Adamski there too at a similar time, when Live & Direct was doing its thing 🙂

Dubman

ArchimedesQ
I saw guru Josh there as well. Wicked party’s. Outback raves i think

LT42

I always thought Guru Josh was the fella out of Lost Boys with the Sax

ArchimedesQ

Dubman Yeah, Outback, Yikes, Pleasure Zone - Our paths probably crossed - Ello mate, where you from? What you on? 🙂

Dubman

ArchimedesQ
Went to a Yikes but not Pleasure Zone. Did you goto any of the Perception raves.

ArchimedesQ

Dubman I did a couple of Perceptions. I was a ticket agent for a few Sunrise/Energy events and went to raindance a lot. Labrynth, Sin at Astoria and Rage/Land of Oz were my main haunts though. I used to do the Mud Club at Busbys, Dungeons, Full Circle, Valbonnes in Maidenhead. standard 1990 routine.

1995:

So many good nights but Global Gathering for me took the biscuit.

Dubman

ArchimedesQ
went to a few Perceptions as well & Raindance at Jenkins lane. We used to get our tickets from Maxxine in Brighton until my mate Rich became a ticket agent.

ArchimedesQ Sin at Astoria

…yes mate, this and The Trip were the business

ArchimedesQ

Dubman I remember Maxine - didn’t she used to go out with Carl Cox? I used to out with a girl called Magda from Chertsey way who was also a ticket agent for a few. Crazy days. Oh to be 21 again, makes me quite grateful to have experienced it all. These 1995 onwards clubbers probably had a great time, but not like we did at the start. The feeling of love and hope was incredible at the time. A lot to do with the pills, but still……

these threads always make me miss the days of simple hedonism. good music, friends, and chemicals and no real life worries yet.

Definitely a different experience when i returned to it back in the late 90’s.
