Parts of this amuse me because in the 80s here in Chicago house music is what we were dancing to, and serious dancers were everywhere. You didn’t go to the clubs to be beautiful you went to dance hardcore

It's annoying how every UK documentary, just ignores other European influences such as German, Belgian and Dutch scenes Didn't even mention Berlins love parade 😂 This docu. Is like cheese full of holes

Can't believe I'm just now discovering this!! Amazing!! So many memories of the music that has been there throughout my entire life!

It doesn't start well. Right in the intro, this being a British program, Elba says that "clubbing is the most significant British cultural export". Except that those who started the British club scene, namely absolute geniuses like Tony Wilson and Rob Gretton, always freely stated that they had imported it from Detroit and New York.

Yeah, a place like Studio 54 in New York in the 70's was a disco nightclub so most def clubbing isn't a British invention

It's so refreshing to hear the Police Chief say the MUSIC WAS WONDERFUL!!

I was there in the UK fresh from my home town of Chicago. What a scene. Still happening! Could have done without seeing Jimmy Saville. He's as creepy as they come, then and now.

That was amazing , thanks so much!

I needed this today! So good

BIG THANKS FOR VID BRO !!!!! :))))

Wow thats the best i have ever seen...grew up to half the music featured....as i was very into the music and scene in the 90s.....very well done thank u😍😁

Thank you, Mr. Elba, for getting the history pretty right. Cheers from a Chicago/Detroit boy.

I’ve learned so much from this documentary. I assumed that europe invited most of the EDM. I love that my people created it, And the UK cultivated it.

Great documentary!

I don't know if the UK can reclaim to create a clubbing I think it was something that happened in a few global cities all at the same time FYI it started with the discotheque movement at the end of the 60s into the 70s. And their Paris was the center then moving on to New York of course with the opening of studio 54 which truly was a global phenomenon. I can agree that the UK single-handedly created the rave culture. I remember when it was important to hear to New York and they started having the first raves in closed factories in Astoria Queen.

Absolutely. What hurts is that the people who created clubbing in the UK freely admitted of importing it from New York after New Order spent some time there. As explained in this documentary: kzread.info/dash/bejne/q6ul2LWSc6yvhbA.html

This is the best documentary I've watched in a long time, not documentary, actually, history and collection of electronic music coming out of the counter-hegmonic and into the mainstream, but truly into our hearts!

For me, its all about Blue Monday... heard that and it was over.. hooked.

36:58 A Called Gerald. I've had a CD from that guy from I think I bought it for maybe $5 CAD, not ever knowing who he was, but loving the sound... until this moment.

amazing!

Watching this, it's a bit of a challenge to consider that Idris played the character Charles Miner in the US Office. Great actor.

Love's Theme by Barry White, Trans Euro Express by Kraftwerk, Move Your Body by Marshall Jefferson , Can You Feel It by Mister Fingers and Good Life by Inner City are 5 of the best songs, ever. Peace to King Tuby and Dub music. Peace to Frankie Knuckles Cool Documentary.

Amazing watch

Great show and was nice to watch, just seeing it now. I do not necessarily agree that with the whole US to UK back to US thing. Here in the US, techno and house was taking off in the early 90's and we had our own warehouse party scene. We also had super clubs in the 90's. I was big into the DC/Baltimore dance scene in the early 90's with clubs like Buzz & Fever and festivals after the warehouse parties started to get busted too early. It was always there, just not mainstream. Very nice show and loved that New Order was mentioned a couple of times.

In chicago it was and is clubs a bit less now. From the Green Mill jazz club to the gay bathhouses this is where two kinds of music grew up. Three, jazz blues and techno, or house. We didnt call it anything just techno, then jungle came in 91 from london over new york straight to chicago. We made our own version of this too. Then the undergrand clubs filled with people from trax recording wax trax, like al jorgenson and ministry came out of my neighborhood in chicago at the same time the 80s and 90s was it here. Total creativity musically and fashion for a short time for some as some lasted forever.

Yo String, where Wallace at?!?

I hate to admit it but I couldn't stand any of this music at the time, I'm so thankful to have the opportunity to fall in love with it now 30 years later.

Is this how I learned about Elba's obsession with clubbin?

Your Love - Jamie Principle

I really want to like this... but it just feels disjointed and superficial. Great tracks, great heads, and everything is 'right', but it's just a bit all over the place. It touches on some pivotal moments but it just feels a little shallow; the contents don't quite match the label, either.

Very Educating on the history of clubbing..... Idris!!!

*Lol no House and Techno was huge in the states* I dint know what Idris is on about

You missed out on a heck of a trip then....and a different way of hearing electronic music. I know you can enjoy music without taking conscious altering substances as I did that too a period that I needed to calm down on xtc intake but there's a whole dimension to feeling music that you can't say you know about unless you've grasped it high on xtc.

Boston Had a House music movement early 90’s

I like the music but this whole movement wrecked a lot of people’s lives because it was so hard to resist and then break free from the drugs.

GRAND ILLUSIONS AND THE VENUS, BOTH CHICAGO JUICE CLUBS IN THE EARLY 1980'S THAT PLAYED HOUSE MUSIC. THE BUZZ THEN WAS MDMA TICK OR HAPPY STICK AND PLAYING VIDEO GAMES.

gets good around 40 min in. Though I am not sure all of these spots are what I would call "pivotal moments" in club history they do touch on some great points.

The sad part is that this genre of music is; ill speak for Detroit, is it's not given airplay because of R&B & HipHop rule the airwaves. Sad that the innovators of Techno, can't get airplay in the city which they represent, although only one radio personality did, but that one wasn't enough and it was short lived. I can't speak for LA, NYC or SF.

Stealing way too much credit & glory from the NY and Chicago scene. This is just one example in the video about this. Look at that place, there aren't even any black people there! Just one. Studio 54 was black, white, straight, gay, locals, celebrities. Who the fuck are they kidding me with this. Pump Up The Volume is the best documentary on clubbing

rewriting history is a very bad habbit of the engliish.
