yup, that exactly why i never go out anymore. the only things i go to are house partys now, and even then you really need the right people or else its shit
exactly, shitty music, shitty people, many people are affraid to dance, because they would be laughed at go there in jeans and normal t-shirt? forget it just social network prostitution
the statement from scumtek was probably one of the most professional and reasonable things ive ever heard from a rave/drug group. They know what they are doing.
rave/drug group you've clearly no idea what you're chatting about people who go to free parties do it because they don't enjoy the corporatized regimented high street night life so they tend to be smart people
Which is just so dangerous.The more secretive they become the more likely unscrupulous people will come.You also run a huge danger of the secreacy causing people to die.If someone is overdosing people wont want to call the police due to them fearing the party getting shut down.
@@dcfanchris i totally disagree. At a RAVE we are responsible for each other. The older ones watch those who are not yet used to know their own limits, bring water or whatever it takes to make somebody who is in a bad condition feel comfortable again. It was like that - Always! This kind of unselfish acting is what Techno and music in general is made of. So stop beeing scared and talk about what could happen.

I'm 37 now and I haven't been to a proper underground rave since 2004, but those nights still remain my most wonderful and special memories. Two raves in particular really stand out "first two nights I tried MDMA and back when it was pure in 1999" The tracks that were played still stir up emotions I don't get from nothing else. It was all about love and feeling connected to everyone. The atmosphere was perfect, nobody took too much, everyone looked out for reach other, making sure you didn't get too hot or drink too much water, just perfect all around. I wouldn't trade those nights for anything!
Classic shit! I grew up in Detroit and experienced the most capturing time of my in the scene! Not one regret and it was a staple in my youth / young adulthood. I’m 36 btw
Word!! I have a few older friends who raved back in the 90's and then others who did when we were in HS in the early 2000's (I'm almost 32 now), and I wish that I had gone to them back then!! I've heard so many great stories from other OG ravers, I liken them to how the scene was when I first started raving back in '09..way more PLUR and music-oriented. The scene has always had its ebbs and flows, but it has DEF changed quite significantly over the last 10 years, ever since it's become more mainstream/legalized due to EDC and other EDM festivals..which don't get me wrong, I love festivals, I just miss underground illegal parties too lol..esp desert parties!
All these raves have one thing in common: a really nice woman attends all of them. She's beautiful, outgoing, she makes you feel like a real man. She's always so understanding. She doesn't nag you about anything. She tells you you're doing the right thing, no matter what. I met her a few times.. I think her name was.. Molly..
VICE has done a fair job of capturing many different cultural phenomena, sometimes with impressive results. However, the magic and feeling of a rave is something that's impossible to put to words or capture on film, and I think this video only serves to underscore that point. The best parties will never be filmed, and it's for the best.
Unless it's a gonzo report with like 10 punters with cameras hidden on their person and they film it .. then edit it and put it together.. Parties everywhere.
Gotta stay hydrated. Also, the fuckers who laced beer with Ketamine that killed that kid are scum. Don't fucking lace anything, ffs *oh, watched the rest of the video and I guess the kid knew but without knowing the dose or tolerance took too much. That sucks. Kids, it's OK to do drugs, but have someone with you with some experience to keep an eye out
@@chucklebutt4470 wasn't laced. in the video he said they put it in the beer as a group to take the ket through drinking it but he overdosed by drinking it all at once
Yeah legalize breaking into someone elses property to have illegal parties wihtout their consent or them even knowing. Great Idea you fucking imbecile.
Raving in london mid late 90s was .... a dream. Very little incidents, organisers were lovely , ravers looked after each other and we never felt unsafe. Such fun times, people genuinely wanted to dance and have fun, just and only that.
I'm a 55 year old farmer from Australia and this resonates with me in such a positive way. Youth having fun. The war on drugs is barbaric and has caused much harm but it has led to cool cultures like underground raves. Go kids.
fooglez it was glorious i remember jumping around New years eve wearing a be top and jeans in the snow and dancing as the sun came up Some time in the 90s in Some field on the middle of nowhere. Noone had mobile phones and there was No internet so you would meet up at service stations on the highway and go in a convoy..... Amazing
I'm so pleased that these kids can experience what I and many others experienced in the late 80's & 90's, and that they're keeping this special scene alive.
YUP, in 88 the umbrella of rave drew in the 70s punks, rockers and hippies and falkland vets, it crossed 3 generations, it helped smashed hooliganism as mdma outsmarted cocoaine in a hearbeat , it does not discriminate in age, looks, gender, financial status, race, creed or being ugly/beautiful, you just gota want to be part of something outside of what we all keep being told to be in society. Fuckin rave on x
Twenty years ago i was into the same thing and I'm happy that the next generation still wants to carry on the tradition, albeit that the inner cities are all camera'ed up making things a lot more difficult in present day. The need for freedom and to express yourself never dies.
Man this brought back memories of my teen years and young adult life. I'm 35 and I still have a few of these raves left in me lol. Freedom to party is the freedom to live. Great documentary. Music dance liberation!
Dr Tune Ah okay...I would fckin love to go to such a spontaneus rave party, but I've never heard of them in my country....and english house is the best house anyway. (Is it House? I am not sure xD)
i dote It's possible. But to get to that natural state without the initiation of drugs is probably hard. People are cowards in the beginning, so they do drugs to see themselves. There has to be a rolemodel or a teacher who knows all the steps.
what im saying is, even if you think you have attained the natural state and then you use drugs, it will be a challenge coming out of it because drugs probably get you in a higher state than you can imagine
Awesome, glad to hear illegal raves are still happening. I enjoyed the late 80s early 90 raves. At the time, I never realised that I was part of a dawning culture and was just enjoying and living it. The excitement of being part of a dance trend is a buzz in itself, being at an illegal rave just heightens that excitement. People are always going to push the boundaries, its part of learning and growing and it creates some truly exciting memories based on an underworld culture. Raves are about acceptance and a joining of minds. Didn't matter who your were, where you came from or what you did for a living, you were all there for the same buzz. There are always going to be individual casualties in whatever risky activity you do. Give people the knowledge to enjoy it as safely as possible, because, it isnt going to stop them even if you create a culture of ignorance and more fatalities will occur due to the ignorance culture. Anyway, love it - Let's av'it! :-)
you're breaking the law, you are not allowed to break and enter into people's property how would you like it if i broke into you're place and threw a party? do it at you're place or rent a place to have a party do not break and enter into people's property
Break-in's were the norm for the rave scene in the 90's. I participated in quite a few of them. It's very cool to see it return and very cool to see a new generation of kids digging it.
Yeah, I went to several all over London and the surrounding areas. Usually in condemned office blocks that were security fenced, the laws at the time preventing officers from forcing entry. There'd be someone on the gate unlocking to let people in as they arrived. I went to one a few minutes walk from London Bridge station, but since it wasn't as residential then, people didn't care all that much about the noise and the buildings were usually pretty much gutted before anyone arrived, so there was no criminal damage. Just a soundsystem, a lot of people, and dealers lining the hallways lol. I never had a bad experience at any of the squat parties or forest raves I went to in the nineties and early 2000s before I moved out of London. The wealth divide is too big, the kids too skint, and they don't want to drink, or listen to the more commercial music in the club's. I'm lucky in that I live in Bristol and there are still a lot of good music venues here, some of them while not exactly drug friendly, do turn a blind eye, and there's a fair amount of musical diversity. But there's something about an illegal rave that's just so much more uplifting and euphoric, even without the drug aspects.
It’s amazing how history repeats itself. The same thing happened in Sacramento at the turn of the century until promoters and cities realized how much money was involved and then you saw the big venues open up in San Fran and surrounding areas to capitalize and soon after the scene died. I imagine now it’s back underground. This all takes me back. I applaud the kids for taking it into their own hands and giving police a run for their money;)
I've been to over 25 raves in the last 1.5 years and I will say there is absolutely nothing that compares. Once you are familiar with the producers you're watching it's the ultimate joy. You can get so close with DJ's, there is no such thing as looking stupid at the club unless you're not dancing and you meet other people who come from all walks of life
as a 16-year-old coming from a really conservative family that judges people like this, I find this so cool & exciting, I personally don't see anything wrong with it, they're just having some fun and now I wanna go to one of these.
Sober raver here. I enjoy all sorts of music. Why are raves tracked down when most hard rock metal concerts are full of drugs but supported by the law? Party and be safe. Focus on being safe.
Who needs md when you have dnb?! Maybe some bears and a little skunk to release a litle bit and u in the front line like they say playing the game ;) md is diferent to everybody some people dont even like and start to feel bad, understand that make sense to you, but I dont think so, anyway is just opinions, in the end I think music is what moves people and the rigth to party drugs are a consequence not from raves, from every world in any kind of things
Mdma doesnt do a damn thing to me anymore, i still love concerts/raves. I guess i still have the memories but the music is definitely the biggest part by far for me anymore. Get a few drinks or do a little blow sometimes is enough for me
I was 15 when the rave culture hit the first time round.....ahhh the happy years that followed. Then the scene got commercialised but the tunes were amazing in the clubs, which were still good back then. It made me happy on this vid to see young free spirits going out into nature, round a fire, doing whatever recreational ;);) and dancing in the tent. No bother.... how youth should be. Now older and wiser...I feel that theres something very shamanic about rave culture. We had our own summers of love in the 90s and 00s and this cynical world needs it again....rave on peeps 🙌✌😷
"People have been gathering together in groups and transcending their pathological individuality through music and ritual since the beginning of time..." -JBP Just an excerpt from a conversation that I committed to memory that my late 90's and early 2000's rave scene experience(s) here in Detroit inspired. Even in such a City as Detroit which is said to be the birthplace of this genre, the vibe, the experiences, and the Love were, and still are the most beautiful and amazing memories I have of my youth. "Techno" and the heartbeat of Detroit's minimal techno and house music provided the soundtrack to my young life. Where I was once an acid tripping slam dance and mosh-centric teenager through the sonic energy nu-metal (rage against the machine, Korn, etc.) Provided my young soul, the beautiful heartbeat of this music genre and the chemical soup, of suburbanites and city dwellers alike, I was shown the love and belonging our current society cultures right the hell out of each individual that doesn't seek the deeper truths of our existence. Love these pieces ❤️ Keep em coming vice 💪🙏💯 PLUR
8 years later and I still come back to this vid. From an era we might not ever see again, about an experience I can only ever wish to have participated in. One of my favorite pieces from VICE.
I was in the Portland, Oregon rave scene starting in 2000 to like 2006. It was some of the best experiences of my life. It opened my mind and turned me into a better person.
I can totally relate (though my own experiences date a lot later + were mostly on mostly legal parties). *This* is exactly what is missing from all media coverage I have ever seen: The connectedness, the caring, loving culture, everyone asking everyone if they are okay, if they drank enough water...it's just one big family. Much love to all ravers and dancers and lovers of electronic music
Whoot whoot, 420 crew present.....Portlands scene got a start by like 98, 99. Then full swing by 01. Went to a warehouse party that got shut down early. Miss those days and the crews that ran the streets. Portlands dead
I was still really small but I went to some raves with my cousins and honestly those parties were bonkers. Parties today are so bland. Kids are just taking pictures the whole time, they don't even speak to one another, just oggle each other down like some kind of filth. Really nasty environment.
That's exactly the time and place I started going to my first ones. I used to go to after hours raves at the Paris theater near burnside. Watching this took me back, to some deep woods hardcore events. I prefer the legal festivals now, lol. I don't mind spending the money to not be hassled
I love that last line "The police were approached multiple times for their participation in this film.... Every request was denied." That just makes me laugh.
This was a quality piece of work. I was 13 in 1990 My education was Music, Vynil, Tapes Always felt circular in a square place. Music unites, Repetative beats, timed drops, Piano, every instrument , fuck your beer, vodka WHISKEY MEN. Aye OK Hector Hard Man. Local pubs in the 90s were Fucking class. Thursday night pints. "One more day One More day" the mantra all day. Let me tell you this. All those fridays Taken off, Wish id doubled them. Circumstances being a weekend astronaut, we drove all over the country. Stayed in Liverpool. "2 hour drive every Saturday. It had come indoors but when you got there. Tribal union. Coming back to now. Ive been in lockdown. fuck, 5 weeks. Not a worry for me. Before this my drum was dying man. The young guys doing this are gonna save something special. Im packing my books, getting rid of the fucking rest. All those years those elusive places . All those Hells. Duality 1+1=0. Need to go sunset tune. Toilet role emergency, geez fucking peace.

in the US, they would have arrested everyone outside, searched inside the warehouse, chased the ones who ran, shoot a couple with tasers, tackle the last one, and say job well done.
Haszyszyn HSN nah I go and see live metal bands that actually have talent of making melodic compositions with real instruments. A rave where everybody is gurning to some sub par shite isn't for me anymore.
i love how most of the vice guys seem pretty chill compared to average media, they kinda fit in a look like they might eve have a little fun sometimes.
you didn't watch this video, what these people are doing is wrong, they are breaking and entry into other people's property, some of these people are being violent and there are minors in these raves, i don't care if adults want to rave in a rented venue that's fine, if they were doing this legally renting a venue having only 18 and up and not being violent then i don't care if they take drugs, have sex whatever there adults and should be able to make their own decision but its how they are going about it is wrong and illegal for good reason, these criminals belong in prison. Do it legally for fuck sake, i don't agree with the war on drugs but how these people are going about it is wrong
@Inthe Garbage no its not, and you are a fucking idiot how would you like it if i broke into your home and did whatever i wanted there? just as i have no right being there, these people have no right breaking an entry into private property they don't own
@@voluntarism335 youre right, but if the government doesnt leave the young any other choice.. i live in a place where the next disco with good music is about 1 hour drive away, and i have never been there in my life! also theres practically no places you can rent just for a party and sometimes that party gets busted by police even! give me one reason why anyone would PAY to organize a party destined to fail. raves will only getiing more popular with clubs closing and police prosecuting said events instead of actually douing something about crime. and i dont even live in that shithole you call america
Respect keep the scene alive I am 55 and still travel the UK for a Illegal Halloween Party. Now taking my son and nephews along. Respect from Norfolk and Good.
Vice needs to do a follow up on this and these folks to see if they are still doing the parties or if they have resorted proper venues. Also to see how if the law is cracking down harder or lightening up. I hope the law is easing up because these kids aren't fighting or killing each other its all about love and love for the music. Respect to these guys throwin down!!!
+Drunken Ira Hayes That is a much used argument, that doesn't really take into account that all those things also happen when people go to legal clubs or bars...
+Whazzar Legal clubs and bars have INSURANCE, and also have BOUNCERS, and the staff are SUPPOSED to prevent drug use if they witness it. So there's a bit of a different between this and legal clubs
Yeah I don't really get why they want those raves to be legal. It beeing illegal seems for most of the people there to be a big part of the thrill. No bouncers and regulations and since most of them are either 16 or act like they are still 16 they all love to rebel against authorities.
Thinking with my adult mind, I'd be concerned about having 800 people in one place that's not equipped for that many people, what if a fire started? It's happened before and people get trapped inside and burn to death, that's pretty serious.
“restricting young people of their freedoms, society has pushed one of their most important rites of passage into the shadows. and as result, has ended up with something that it doesn’t seem to be able to control.” brilliant
Im 15 now, and Ive experienced nothing, This video was really cool to see. All the PLUR and just will to party in all these people is amazing. I really wish I could experience a classic rave
This has been a part of the human experience since before civilization. It is a modern incarnation of the Dionysian Rite. It will never be stopped. It is an integral part of being human.
Nailed it These Experiences and behavior are hard wired into us. "People have been gathering together in groups and transcending their pathological individuality through music and ritual since the beginning of time..." -JBP Just an excerpt of a conversation that I committed to memory due to my underground rave scene Xperiences in the late 90's and early 2000's. Experiencing this level of love and understanding in an industrial wasteland and ghetto such as Detroit changed me forever. My most fondest memories of my youth were encapsulated in these short couple of years. The biggest danger in all of this is the youth with their rudementary understanding of the world and their place in it. Especially the level of responsibility that comes with the ingestion of such powerful psychedelics and empathogens. Then again, these are the experiences that once led me to drug oblivion, are the very same experiences that "cultured" me into the man I am today. Much love and ALWAYS P.L.U.R. 😁😁😁
I felt a huge sense of nostalgia watching this. I used to live in East and went to lots of raves in the early 00's. It was a hidden, underground, magical world full of great music, love and euphoria. Ive never experienced anything like it since. I will forever cherish those memories it was a brillant time in my life. A great documentary which took me back to the good old days.
Some songs that I found that are available on www: Tessela - Hackney Parrot Wigbert - Dynamic Range Maxsta - Mare Street Dick Head (Prod. by Boothroyd) Rido & Counterstrike - Let It Roll Rock Right Now - Darren Styles & Alex Prospect Dark0 - Offence Psychonaut - Pig & Dan & Mark Reeve
I was part of the illegal rave boom in the early 90's onward, Then they brought out the law making it illegal which only broke up the scene to where more clubs put on nights or you had BIG events in fields with thousands in attendance, And you still had the ones putting on illegal beach party's after the night at the club's or an event somewhere & I am so glad I was part of the scene & seen it grow & how it's changed compared to the nineties, I'm 45 years old now & still go to the club(Not every weekend now thou ) which we used to attend every couple of weeks which now my mate runs ,Its name has changed thru the years first it was "M.O.I.S.T" then "NOSEBLEED" & now the night put on are called "REUNION " at CJ'S in Rosyth ,Fife Scotland, The name Reunion is fitting for the club name as that's what it's like a BIG REUNION of party people that some we haven't seen for years & new faces too !! The scene is so special & these nights that my mate puts on like every 6 months or 3 a year that people come as far as NEW ZEALAND just to come to Reunion as it means that much plus my m8 also does a Saturday night on RADIOSILKY.COM called "Get Loco" (Old Skool night) & "Crossover" which ranges from manky Hard Trance with a twist of Acid thrown in !! They will always find a way somehow to put on a night no matter what laws they bring out so enjoy it & the scene will never die .. #OldSkoolRule #Radiosilky.com #ReunionRosyth #NosebleedRosyth #Moist
I've been to plenty of real raves in my time. How would you know what I have or haven't done when you don't know the first thing about me. Again, this video is just thuggish idiot kids. Not the real rave scene at all. North of the Scottish border, things are very, very different and waaaaay more chilled out. Fannies like the ones in this video get kicked out or driven away and dumped in the middle of nowhere, very fast.
30 Years ago in America, and NYC we called them outlaws. They were held in warehouses, under bridges and in fields. 90% of the time the cops broke our balls. The Music was Hardcore, Hard Techno and Acid Trance. This is a Global Culture, it will never end!
wth :D germany is like one of the biggest rave countries there are. u have multiple whatsapp groups all full, where there post 10- 20 events every weekend and thats just around hannover. techno and goa is so big in germany
I live in the U.S but this takes me back to my younger days of club houses and pop-up raves! I may have gotten older, but those rave beats are forever in my heart! 🔊🤩🔊😎🔊🤗🔊♥️🔊
hahaha you clueless fucks don't even know. south africa, specifically the western cape has one of the biggest "underground" rave scenes in the world in the name of psytrance festivals. try five day long parties with 3000 people and 24/7 music on a massive system ranging up to like 200bpm in the fucking african mountains. the shit you get in europe is weak in comparison tbh. rave is alive everywhere

Almost all the illegal drugs come to England through the port in Liverpool. They are right at the source.
I think you're on to something Holmes lool 😂
I thought drugs would make people bad and violent ? Wait the government lied to us 😳😂
I went to Wales for raves a few times and even without MDMA the people are proper chilled, great country.

Such fun times, people genuinely wanted to dance and have fun, just and only that.

fooglez it was glorious i remember jumping around New years eve wearing a be top and jeans in the snow and dancing as the sun came up Some time in the 90s in Some field on the middle of nowhere. Noone had mobile phones and there was No internet so you would meet up at service stations on the highway and go in a convoy..... Amazing
love seeing the reporter get into it, really great that vice sends out people who are open to this type of experience
I'm so pleased that these kids can experience what I and many others experienced in the late 80's & 90's, and that they're keeping this special scene alive.
YUP, in 88 the umbrella of rave drew in the 70s punks, rockers and hippies and falkland vets, it crossed 3 generations, it helped smashed hooliganism as mdma outsmarted cocoaine in a hearbeat , it does not discriminate in age, looks, gender, financial status, race, creed or being ugly/beautiful, you just gota want to be part of something outside of what we all keep being told to be in society. Fuckin rave on x
Twenty years ago i was into the same thing and I'm happy that the next generation still wants to carry on the tradition, albeit that the inner cities are all camera'ed up making things a lot more difficult in present day.
The need for freedom and to express yourself never dies.

Boys youS have no idea what the 90s were like.....
how were the???
BurntDZN damn
They want to do it because it's natural not because it's not allowed. What's wrong about dancing and jumping around?
its the drug involvement thats not allowed because otherwise there are clubs and house parties
i dote
Yea. Are the drugs really necessary to go wild? Is there no other way?
probably not...thats why its very difficult to stop drug use after you start them
i dote
It's possible. But to get to that natural state without the initiation of drugs is probably hard. People are cowards in the beginning, so they do drugs to see themselves. There has to be a rolemodel or a teacher who knows all the steps.
what im saying is, even if you think you have attained the natural state and then you use drugs, it will be a challenge coming out of it because drugs probably get you in a higher state than you can imagine
Awesome, glad to hear illegal raves are still happening. I enjoyed the late 80s early 90 raves. At the time, I never realised that I was part of a dawning culture and was just enjoying and living it. The excitement of being part of a dance trend is a buzz in itself, being at an illegal rave just heightens that excitement. People are always going to push the boundaries, its part of learning and growing and it creates some truly exciting memories based on an underworld culture. Raves are about acceptance and a joining of minds. Didn't matter who your were, where you came from or what you did for a living, you were all there for the same buzz. There are always going to be individual casualties in whatever risky activity you do. Give people the knowledge to enjoy it as safely as possible, because, it isnt going to stop them even if you create a culture of ignorance and more fatalities will occur due to the ignorance culture. Anyway, love it - Let's av'it! :-)
Why
tldr old man
Raves seem more like an excuse to be high and pissed
Electric Bear I miss it
you're breaking the law, you are not allowed to break and enter into people's property how would you like it if i broke into you're place and threw a party? do it at you're place or rent a place to have a party do not break and enter into people's property

Break-in's were the norm for the rave scene in the 90's. I participated in quite a few of them. It's very cool to see it return and very cool to see a new generation of kids digging it.
Oh i hope someone breaks into your home one day.
Harald von Hinten nice
@@haraldvonhinten8921 They're breaking into abandonned warehouses not houses you idiot
Yeah, I went to several all over London and the surrounding areas. Usually in condemned office blocks that were security fenced, the laws at the time preventing officers from forcing entry. There'd be someone on the gate unlocking to let people in as they arrived. I went to one a few minutes walk from London Bridge station, but since it wasn't as residential then, people didn't care all that much about the noise and the buildings were usually pretty much gutted before anyone arrived, so there was no criminal damage. Just a soundsystem, a lot of people, and dealers lining the hallways lol. I never had a bad experience at any of the squat parties or forest raves I went to in the nineties and early 2000s before I moved out of London.
The wealth divide is too big, the kids too skint, and they don't want to drink, or listen to the more commercial music in the club's. I'm lucky in that I live in Bristol and there are still a lot of good music venues here, some of them while not exactly drug friendly, do turn a blind eye, and there's a fair amount of musical diversity. But there's something about an illegal rave that's just so much more uplifting and euphoric, even without the drug aspects.

Maybe if you didn’t spend so much time on YT you would’ve noticed your primarchs falling to chaos
It’s amazing how history repeats itself. The same thing happened in Sacramento at the turn of the century until promoters and cities realized how much money was involved and then you saw the big venues open up in San Fran and surrounding areas to capitalize and soon after the scene died. I imagine now it’s back underground. This all takes me back. I applaud the kids for taking it into their own hands and giving police a run for their money;)

I've been to over 25 raves in the last 1.5 years and I will say there is absolutely nothing that compares. Once you are familiar with the producers you're watching it's the ultimate joy. You can get so close with DJ's, there is no such thing as looking stupid at the club unless you're not dancing and you meet other people who come from all walks of life
as a 16-year-old coming from a really conservative family that judges people like this, I find this so cool & exciting, I personally don't see anything wrong with it, they're just having some fun and now I wanna go to one of these.

Just don't go too far.
Sober raver here. I enjoy all sorts of music. Why are raves tracked down when most hard rock metal concerts are full of drugs but supported by the law? Party and be safe. Focus on being safe.
no offense and I don't mean to sound elitist but you honestly cant understand what rave is if you haven't dropped md at one
Who needs md when you have dnb?! Maybe some bears and a little skunk to release a litle bit and u in the front line like they say playing the game ;) md is diferent to everybody some people dont even like and start to feel bad, understand that make sense to you, but I dont think so, anyway is just opinions, in the end I think music is what moves people and the rigth to party drugs are a consequence not from raves, from every world in any kind of things
Mdma doesnt do a damn thing to me anymore, i still love concerts/raves. I guess i still have the memories but the music is definitely the biggest part by far for me anymore. Get a few drinks or do a little blow sometimes is enough for me
I have been to many metal shows the only drug I have seen is pot. In genral metal shows are at proper venues so there is nothing illegal

I was 15 when the rave culture hit the first time round.....ahhh the happy years that followed. Then the scene got commercialised but the tunes were amazing in the clubs, which were still good back then. It made me happy on this vid to see young free spirits going out into nature, round a fire, doing whatever recreational ;);) and dancing in the tent. No bother.... how youth should be. Now older and wiser...I feel that theres something very shamanic about rave culture. We had our own summers of love in the 90s and 00s and this cynical world needs it again....rave on peeps 🙌✌😷

Just an excerpt from a conversation that I committed to memory that my late 90's and early 2000's rave scene experience(s) here in Detroit inspired. Even in such a City as Detroit which is said to be the birthplace of this genre, the vibe, the experiences, and the Love were, and still are the most beautiful and amazing memories I have of my youth. "Techno" and the heartbeat of Detroit's minimal techno and house music provided the soundtrack to my young life. Where I was once an acid tripping slam dance and mosh-centric teenager through the sonic energy nu-metal (rage against the machine, Korn, etc.) Provided my young soul, the beautiful heartbeat of this music genre and the chemical soup, of suburbanites and city dwellers alike, I was shown the love and belonging our current society cultures right the hell out of each individual that doesn't seek the deeper truths of our existence.

8 years later and I still come back to this vid. From an era we might not ever see again, about an experience I can only ever wish to have participated in. One of my favorite pieces from VICE.
I was in the Portland, Oregon rave scene starting in 2000 to like 2006. It was some of the best experiences of my life. It opened my mind and turned me into a better person.
I can totally relate (though my own experiences date a lot later + were mostly on mostly legal parties).
*This* is exactly what is missing from all media coverage I have ever seen: The connectedness, the caring, loving culture, everyone asking everyone if they are okay, if they drank enough water...it's just one big family. Much love to all ravers and dancers and lovers of electronic music
Whoot whoot, 420 crew present.....Portlands scene got a start by like 98, 99. Then full swing by 01. Went to a warehouse party that got shut down early. Miss those days and the crews that ran the streets. Portlands dead
I was still really small but I went to some raves with my cousins and honestly those parties were bonkers. Parties today are so bland. Kids are just taking pictures the whole time, they don't even speak to one another, just oggle each other down like some kind of filth. Really nasty environment.
The 90's in the US '95-'98 best days of my life!!
That's exactly the time and place I started going to my first ones. I used to go to after hours raves at the Paris theater near burnside. Watching this took me back, to some deep woods hardcore events. I prefer the legal festivals now, lol. I don't mind spending the money to not be hassled
I love that last line "The police were approached multiple times for their participation in this film.... Every request was denied." That just makes me laugh.

shame the police declined to interview. i was honestly curious about their reasons behind banning these raves.
+Drunken Ira Hayes That is a much used argument, that doesn't really take into account that all those things also happen when people go to legal clubs or bars...
+Whazzar Legal clubs and bars have INSURANCE, and also have BOUNCERS, and the staff are SUPPOSED to prevent drug use if they witness it. So there's a bit of a different between this and legal clubs
Yeah I don't really get why they want those raves to be legal. It beeing illegal seems for most of the people there to be a big part of the thrill. No bouncers and regulations and since most of them are either 16 or act like they are still 16 they all love to rebel against authorities.
Thinking with my adult mind, I'd be concerned about having 800 people in one place that's not equipped for that many people, what if a fire started? It's happened before and people get trapped inside and burn to death, that's pretty serious.
i mean, it'd be real nice if it weren't made illegal then

Just an excerpt of a conversation that I committed to memory due to my underground rave scene Xperiences in the late 90's and early 2000's. Experiencing this level of love and understanding in an industrial wasteland and ghetto such as Detroit changed me forever.
My most fondest memories of my youth were encapsulated in these short couple of years. The biggest danger in all of this is the youth with their rudementary understanding of the world and their place in it. Especially the level of responsibility that comes with the ingestion of such powerful psychedelics and empathogens. Then again, these are the experiences that once led me to drug oblivion, are the very same experiences that "cultured" me into the man I am today.

I was part of the illegal rave boom in the early 90's onward, Then they brought out the law making it illegal which only broke up the scene to where more clubs put on nights or you had BIG events in fields with thousands in attendance, And you still had the ones putting on illegal beach party's after the night at the club's or an event somewhere & I am so glad I was part of the scene & seen it grow & how it's changed compared to the nineties, I'm 45 years old now & still go to the club(Not every weekend now thou ) which we used to attend every couple of weeks which now my mate runs ,Its name has changed thru the years first it was "M.O.I.S.T" then "NOSEBLEED" & now the night put on are called "REUNION " at CJ'S in Rosyth ,Fife Scotland, The name Reunion is fitting for the club name as that's what it's like a BIG REUNION of party people that some we haven't seen for years & new faces too !! The scene is so special & these nights that my mate puts on like every 6 months or 3 a year that people come as far as NEW ZEALAND just to come to Reunion as it means that much plus my m8 also does a Saturday night on RADIOSILKY.COM called "Get Loco" (Old Skool night) & "Crossover" which ranges from manky Hard Trance with a twist of Acid thrown in !! They will always find a way somehow to put on a night no matter what laws they bring out so enjoy it & the scene will never die .. #OldSkoolRule #Radiosilky.com #ReunionRosyth #NosebleedRosyth #Moist

I'm so happy I live in the Netherlands where this shit isn't illegal😂
Yeah but the Netherlands is some dead up place
Milo Levinson - Never been in The Netherlands then u monk.
Any scene, any onderground scene is better here.
What do you mean it's not illegal? To go to a building that has a owner and setup a party without authorization? Pretty sure that's not true... :x
It is Illegal...
Wicked Ways hoe kunt ge raves vinde in België?
Great documentary, amazing to see the lively rave scene on the other side of the world :)
this is not the real rave scene. these are thuggish idiot kids. the real rave scene is far different
I've been to plenty of real raves in my time. How would you know what I have or haven't done when you don't know the first thing about me. Again, this video is just thuggish idiot kids. Not the real rave scene at all. North of the Scottish border, things are very, very different and waaaaay more chilled out. Fannies like the ones in this video get kicked out or driven away and dumped in the middle of nowhere, very fast.
lol scotland is worse trust me
Scotland is a tumour on the island of the UK. Awful country.
Palace floor is the typical keyboard warrior, cmon up to Scotland and say it to one of our faces, perhaps come to Glasgow and see what happens
30 Years ago in America, and NYC we called them outlaws. They were held in warehouses, under bridges and in fields. 90% of the time the cops broke our balls. The Music was Hardcore, Hard Techno and Acid Trance. This is a Global Culture, it will never end!
I need to get there. The sound is still utterly mental.
by "there", I mean the British underground
sounds really cool

Clive Martin surveys the UK's nocturnal landscape to see what can be done after half of their clubs have closed down.
So what geographical features separate a nocturnal landscape from a daytime landscape? Use diagrams to support your answer

Smart-ass
It's owt new been going scince the 90ts
In Lithuania we have good quality RAVES, that's why I love to live in there
This is one of the best Vice vids out. Period
I live in the U.S but this takes me back to my younger days of club houses and pop-up raves! I may have gotten older, but those rave beats are forever in my heart! 🔊🤩🔊😎🔊🤗🔊♥️🔊
Meanwhile in Africa...they have the whole wilderness to throw a rave but no speakers and shit...
right enema, right... (^^_)
Spencer Meyer shut the fuck up kid
this nigga thinks all of Africa has no speakers. u stupid and ignorant
@ redi .... Acid pepe isn't a 'nigga'... that would be an insult to proper niggas.. (^^,)
hahaha you clueless fucks don't even know. south africa, specifically the western cape has one of the biggest "underground" rave scenes in the world in the name of psytrance festivals. try five day long parties with 3000 people and 24/7 music on a massive system ranging up to like 200bpm in the fucking african mountains. the shit you get in europe is weak in comparison tbh. rave is alive everywhere
19:00 - 20:37 darren styles - rock right now ... keep commenting to put this on top ya legends
Thank fuck I found this comment, actual legend!!!
Thank you so fkin much you are a unit
We have the same things in France here and there, I like how Europe has kept this rave culture and underground techno life
Love how they all are wearing angerfist’s masks @ 15:15 !
