VINYL JUNKIE and oldskool raver trying to keep the vibe alive. I'm lucky to be able to say I lived through the 1990-1994 amazing UK underground dancemusic scene, and experienced it to the max . I will always love Vinyl Records, because only they can capture the true sound, (digital sound cannot reproduce sine or triangle waves correctly, and as such does not reproduce the true recording as it should be). Of course, CD's & mp3's do have their place in music, and have many advantages over vinyl, but personally I prefer the hands on feel of mixing with vinyl records.

Also ppl who brag about owning 10, 000 tunes, then confess they are all ilegal mp3's from filesharing networks ! And I really hate ppl who release remixes of famous tunes, or who sample famous tunes, and make money from them, yet DONT HAVE THE RESPECT TO ACTUALLY LET THE ORIGINAL ARTIST EVEN KNOW, LET ALONE PAY THEM THE ROYALTIES THEY DESERVE....

True Oldskool Ravers
True OSR will remember the days of the REAL rave scene, back when raving was 80ppl in a muddy feild in the middle of some woods dancing for 3 days. No clubs, no dress code, no tickets, no attitude, just a mad group of people from various backgrounds all enjoying something different, new, and exciting. True OSR will remember when E's actually contained MDMA, and when acid tabs were all the rage.
The first raves I went to, were not full of glow-stick weilding 16 year olds in white tracksuits and burberry hats. Ravers back then tried to look unique and different to anybody else. In the very early days of raves, there seemed to be lots of hippies, travellers, old northern soul boys, grebo's, and other types of party people you would never see at a modern HTID crap event. The music, atmosphere, and overall vibe of the early rave scene united the different types of people. I can remember dancing away with different people who, 5 years earlier, would have probably just wanted to fight eachother. The rave scene died, in my opinion, when the criminal justice bill was passed. There were a few decent big events in 1992 & 1993, but I think after the end of 1993 the whole scene was going downhill. The music split into 'catagories' (whereas before 93 it was all just rave music), and this took the scene backwards. Instead of everybody united and listening to all different types of dancemusic, ppl got snobby again and would only listen to a small particular sound or style.
Nowadays, there is none of the old spirit left in modern so-called rave music. Its sad but true to say that the modern hardcore sound does not seem to have moved on in the last 10 years. The artists just copy what previous artists have been doing, the 'ravers' dress and dance copying what previous 'ravers' over the last 10 years have been doing, and to be a raver these days means you are just a sheep trying to fit in with some stereotype image created by commercial money-making organisations.

Back To The Old Skool7/1/08hey nik, yeah have 2 of those in me collection, but fcuk 30 quid for a choon, thats pricey!!, have you tried a site called "discogs", its pretty handy for old stuff, i've even used ebay to get vinyl, thats more down to luck if some1 is selling the choon your looking for at the time, just a couple of suggestions to a fellow 'vinyl junkie' i've been behind the turntables since '91 meself, luv it!!!, bit harder now with mrs an a kid, but that makes the time i do spent on them much more enjoyable!!! Respect!!! sulley









just thought id drop you some love
Just got some of these carts, £200 a pair. I was dissapointed to find one was FAULTY. I sent it back and got another the next day (bigups to djdeals for good service). The carts are the best I have ever heard, 20Hz bass to 22Khz top end are the widest range of any DJ cart. The tracking is brilli...
