Haha. Bowlers (Trafford park) early 90’s. Oh my god. I went maybe twice, I thought I was into rave until I went there, I think that’s what killed it for me, i reeled it in to just likening dance.

But, one of those memories that makes you think ‘what the hell?’

Ohhh yes an original raver here...80's and the 90's...best atmosphere in clubs, no fighting...Blackpool had a few top clubs...Sequins, Zone, Shaboo, Oz, Main Entrance, Hell, also went to Wigan Pier, all nighter in Morcambe, not so keen on Back to Basics when I went there, Shaboo in Liverpool was good too, didn't bother with all the 'had to dress a certain way' clubs as the atmosphere was never as good or as friendly...no one really wanted to dance a sweat on

They’re a bit Orbital, I think. In a good way.

Actually, Orbital are about to release a 30th anniversary set.

I’m old now, so it’s Jon Hopkins, Orb spin-off projects (Chocolate Hills, Gaudi & Youth, Sedibus) and other really laid back stuff. Boards of Canada.

caught a few in disused warehouses around the north of the M25 area/greenwich with a bunch of my neighbours in the days when they kept the actual location quiet till the night... car chases around first to find where everyone was heading lol

flower pot hats with peace symbols, tee shirts with smiley faces, whistles, light sticks and led finger rings... glow in the dark make up and bracelettes, dungarees with funky logos daubed on them... and banging tunes to leap around to, what was not to love???

good times. Hahaha!!!

Stuck on this rock & a couple of years too young meant never getting to any proper raves but loved the mix tapes & ended up mobile DJing & a huge 12" single collection plus Abstract Hypermoon & Wildstar club lights. In my head I still live in that era musically.

Together, 2 For Joy, Pierre Feroldi, Love Decade, all the goosebumps names lol. I'd have loved to have been a podium dancer as Gemma lol, my dream.

Fantazia crew tshirt still hangs in the wardrobe to this day.

Anyone in the south need a clubbing buddy? My friends are all slowly hanging up their trainers. . . .

I’m planning on seeing bicep this year, plus some old favs as well as new talent. Had a great time in Croatia @ dekmantel and @ Love International. Sunshine and dancing. Bliss. But love being in a dark dingy club, next to the speaker stack with the condensation running down the walls too.

You just can’t find that in a club these days ??

Lol, I know what you mean about age. I was at an orbital gig a few years back, and it was full of ex ravers who were now middle aged bald blokes

I listen to your choice of music too. Try Rival Consoles, Ulrich Schnaus, and Luke Abbott too.

I remember seeing Dub War play at the Cavern in Exeter back in the 90s... Until I couldn't see them any more cos I was right at the front and one of the singer (Benji)'s dreads caught me right in the eye and knocked a contact lens out.

Memorable.

Original "Trade" baby here love my Old skool. Went to Turmills, The End, Clockwork Orange events. Loved the dark seedy underground venues opposed to the big events. Did few warehouse parties n loved the after-parties, more relaxed n underground.

Can't stand the "EDM" movement as it is today or whatever they call it and seeing events on-line where the crowd stand in front on the DJ with their phones in air making videos just spoils it completely for me.

I still listen a lot to the old stuff I grew up on but things change and the current music just fails to give me the goosebumps n euphoria that the old skool does.

Manage the odd night n ave tickets in Feb for the Trade 30th reunion which was meant to happen last yr. Will be interesting to see how long I last!
