Oh the Quad! we used to drive over from York to Munroes in Great Harden then head to the Quad afterwards, scary place for a York country boy
Ahhhhh, sigh.
Papua New Guinea will still sound good a hundred years from now........
My forte ...
My forte
In a sound clash I wouldn't have seen have coming, good choice.... in boxing that tune would be a standing count

just remembered this one - turn it up 🙂
And one of my all time favourites, never actually get bored of listening to this.. Best mix of the track IMO.
Party children although people may remember it as warehouse days of glory, true classic
OMG Ben Monroes in Great Harwood ?Brings back some memories of the old sweatbox that does.

Best thread ever, didn't realise their is so many old skool caners on this sight!! But I still can't work out how to embed a video from youtube!

according to the national press at the time every British kid aged between 16 and 25 attended an evil rave every weekend between 1988 and 1994 so it shouldn't be too much of a surprise..
I left quite a lot of my braincells at this place most weekends in 1992..
some god stuff on the thread folks.
I still have half of it on vinyl , is it worth anything ?
Some excellent stuff here! The awesome baselines thread got me thinking of that Gordon Edge - Compounded track, but I couldnt remember the name of it! I remember feeling that baseline reverberating through me on the Sterns underground 🙂 Shades of Rhythm too, havent heard that in a while - Poole art centre NYE or Xmas 1990/1, popping my 1st pill after holding back for so long lol!
Mind you I goddam hated Ratpack/topbuzz/SL2 cheese!

well that's not very love, light and unity is it...!? 😉
That was the yin and yang I suppose.. and the teen mindset.. it's a shame that so many despise the next evolutionary step of their particular teen revolution movement.. but it's sadly as inevitable as the dawn, with any youth movement that you look at throughout recent history..
If we'd all been mature enough to understand it the world might just have become a better place..
I still have a theory that the whole ecstacy/rave thing was orchestrated by Thatcher to chemically adjust the youth to a more passive mindset anyway.. that unescapable trance inducing musical onslaught and hypnotic psychoactive drugs...? A heady and seductive mix..
hmm.. very suspicious
Some of my favourite CHOONS of all time -
Great memories, great tunes
I'm in that Quadrant Park clip! A part of me died when they knocked the place down.
some god stuff on the thread folks.

Some of it might be, but probably not these days. Have a look on discogs.com.
If you've got a copy of this though, then it will be worth a lot..
That Bizz Nizz clip reminds me of how I used to dance. 😆
Top Thread.
This has to be the all time classic from the rave era.

Superfli, Edge 1 - Compounded is the one... classic
Entropy Stoke, where it all started for us in 1990 -

I'd recommend the Nipper and Graeme Park Hacienda mixes, or any of the Sasha at Shelleys Stoke mixes.
I found the classic Sasha at Universe with MC Joe Peng a while ago, it's out there if you google it.

Hero - Mr Kirk's Nightmare[/url]
I was at Fabric in 2007 when this bad boy was dropped. All the now slightly balding grey haired old skool heads went mental, me included.

Your name's not Dan 😆
A long dark tunnel... utter classic! But toward the end of my club daze, it got a bit dark around then?
In a similar theme -
and the Hype mix of the Fugees Ready or Not was good too.
Chillout time :
Pre dates my club days but this is where it began for me
Love that Closer To Alll Your Dreams Hybrid Mix....
some god stuff on the thread folks.

It's a good few years ago now when vinyl was still king but some of these classic old skool tunes like the ones in this thread were going for £15-20 each or more if they were in decent condition.
They might well still be worth something as finding decent MP3s of them to DJ with isn't easy.
BTW in a similar thread before there was talking of organising a little revival rave/bike meetup somewhere - would be funny. Would require someone to actually organise it though.... 🙂
Not really old-school, but pure class and 15 years old now..
Been riding with prog mixes on a lot recently. Silk Royal Showcase podcasts if anyone likes the epic stuff, download one of the Jacob Henry, Tom Fall and Ad Brown mixes.
'95
'89
BD's new album released a few days ago is awesome
Prog DJs have an easy life. An hour set is 4 or 5 records. Still a big fan of the prog sound though. Sasha tune is a top find James.
Classic - only recently found out that this was Charles Webster (Phurry Freaks, Unique3 etc). Still sounds fresh now.
And this just because :
Anyone Bowlers or Kinetic-goers on STW?
HELP -How do you put Youtube clips up??
Hit the 'Video' then paste the youtube address from your browser..
Anyone Bowlers or Kinetic-goers on STW?
I've been to Bowlers, though I suspect it was long past the 'glory days' by then, must have been late 90s I guess. I got into all this stuff a bit late really - never went to any of the original early 90s raves as I was slightly too young.
Anyone Bowlers or Kinetic-goers on STW?
I used to go to Bowlers (Compulsion), Kinetic, The Sanctuary (Helter Skelter and Dreamscape), loads of fun times!
That Lego Rave is one of the best things I've ever seen, haha!! 😀
The Orbit - Osset..
Our son is named after this guy.. 🙂
