Back to the 1990's Classic Rave/ Club Videos

dSTAR

Hey groove birds ..

I know there has been some massive threads dealing with the old school club/rave scene (Asylum) but was looking to pull together some classic rave/club from the 1990's under one roof so to speak if even to have all the links in one place so I don't have to go searching when I am off it and looking to view some hazy footage of some mad nights I had.

I have seen the video from Sides (NR:GEX) and was looking for another entitled Back to 1994 on Mr Springs site that doesn't seem to be there anymore. I know not many people had camcorders back in the day and mobile phone cameras weren't even thought of. Don't matter how grainy it is .. post any footage from The Asylum, Grouchos, Shaft, Sides, Ormond, Olympic, UFO and any other legendary Dublin rave / clubs.

There is a good site - http://www.ravehistory.co.uk/

Here is one of their videos from youtube. Your one at the start is a great
ad to stop people from using drugs!

The audio is very loud, so you might want to turn down your speakers before clicking play

Here are all their youtube vidz:

yeah, certainly couldn't imagine that going on in Spirit! I don't live in Dublin but have been to Spirit twice when up visiting a mate. I must say I enjoyed it, the tunes were class and it was all new to me but thinking back on it now, I don't think I would bother going there again in a rush, the same mate now says he will take me to Tripod when I am up for my next visit.

Spirit is full of chicks far too hot and up themselves for their own good and the lads are all pumped up egos looking to pull one of the pretty gurls! I prefer to strip it down just to the music to be honest.

Yeah i agree mate unfortunately that's the way the scene has gone thesedays...


Anyway here's another vid from United Dance in 1995 in Hertfordshire,England, i was meant to go to this but couldn't get the cash to travel over.

Totally agree. Even if the scene did stay true to its roots it would still be bastardized by some neophyte who thinks the whole thing is a recent invention. Seriously I cringe when I see these **** strut around. I feel like going up to them and saying that I was necking bikkies when they were still in shorts. Jonny you will probably know what I am saying here

Interestingly down here in Melbourne a phenomena called the Melbourne Shuffle started off in the underground clubs/raves in the late 80's (around the time my club/rave days started) and isn't showing any signs of disappearing. Even though I do a bit of shuffle myself I still find a club filled completely with shufflers to be a yawn fest.

Heres a video showing how they get down in Melbourne Town..

Finally found the Back to 1993 video I've been searching for months now. Amazing what the right search terms in Google will return.

His download page is no longer live so I'm not sure what bandwidth restrictions the owner of the site has.
