"whistle posse in the place, let me hear you make some noise"

"only for the UK hardcore raver"

"are you ready...?"

Wouldn't catch me dancing like that. I'll deny it. Still quite like the music. Must dust down my cassettes.

Lost my first ever job after being observed dancing to the sound of the photocopier the Tuesday after the 1992 Mayday bank holiday.

Most of the nineties were a little like that for me, only more intense:

Strong house/acid influence in that style. You can see in the stuff I posted in the OP it's hardcore but changing towards jungle.

36 but started young ~ 16. I'm very tall so always looked older than I was.

Haven't heard that track you linked to in years.

This was another of my favourites to dance to. There was a little club we used to go to which was pitch black, with matt black painted walls, with a single smoke machine, cone laser, and a strobe and this tune worked perfectly with that set up.

I was out with a mate who I used to go clubbing with a couple of weeks ago, and we were laughing that at our kids weddings, we'll probably be dancing to these sort of tunes; like my parents do to 50s R&R. I can't wait for some dad dancing to the above tracks when I'm in my 50s hehe

Definitely house influence there! The track I linked to is a playlist (check on the top right). I know what you mean: if any fker plays Vera Lynn in my retirement home I'll kill them with my zimmerframe.

Someone posted on Youtube that it's weird; these folks are now probably our lawyers, doctors, bankers, postmen..

I was slightly too young to be into the whole rave scene (I was 13 in '92) but knew a few folks older than me who were into it. Used to be a massive event regularly down at what used to be 'Sterns' in Worthing.

That was me who posted that. biggrin

Yes, I heard of Sterns. Never had the chance to go there as I was mainly in the Midlands in the early '90s so Eclipse (later The Edge) was my haunt. Er, I mean it would have been had I ever listened to such music. Ahem.

Next time I'm with a client, I'll play a Fantazia tape as background music. wink

I was only at Castlemorton that easter time for DiY, was and still am a house man primarily.

My uncles came up through the Powerhouse alldayers so was surrounded by rare groove/disco/soul as a kid. The parties in the Rag Market & up in Hockley were like the next step from that scene so that's what I started off in. Found the US sound through Wobble;

and heard links to what my uncles had listened to. Also found out there were a whole nother class of women in wobble, Steering Wheel & Moneypenny's smile

Those were great days for techno in Brum too, I remember Ritchie Hawtin at the Que in 95 practically knocking my head off. Surgeon & Sir Real somewhere in Digbeth every weekend, ah those were the days..

Ah, I see. You must like funky house/hed kandi/stereo sushi?
