We had a 72h rave in Montreal in 2014 if I’m not mistaken . That rave was busted on hour 32 because of some kids not being slick. That was the breaking point for the police, they literally build a wall at the metro Lasalle on our secret spot under the bridge in the woods, closed down every hotspot where we’d rave . Police became incredibly hostile towards Raving. That was 10years ago and I’m still salty af about it. By miracle I received a map 2 years ago to a secret rave in the middle of highway in the woods and had the time of my life reminiscing my teen years. Cried like a baby at 5am . I’d give anything to experience again the whole … receives a map, goes in the middle of nowhere, thinks you’re lost in the dark between trees until you hear a faint bass. Follow the sound, as you get closer it gets louder .., and you finally enter the hole with lasers beaming and music playing. 😢

Late 80’s, Early 90’s - What a time to be alive…… Best years of my life!!!!!

After the public order act stopped convoys of more than 12 vehicles it put a real downer on the traveller lifestyle and within a few more years pretty well everthing was gone the ITV news on the convoy was almost like a advert for castlemoreton

We still do this like every single weekend. it lives on. Don't listen to the people who left the scene, we're still raving!!!!!

Truly the golden era of raving. This is why UK rave culture tops all else. Raving is a huge part of my life now, but it’s £20-£50 a ticket. Big scale free raves are needed again, even if it’s a short lived renaissance.

@@LeMoHaZe I am from Belgium so I don’t really now much about UK raves except for what is see on the net. We had some illegal raves last year which were insane 😂. But the only good clubs left in Belgium are Kompass and Fuse. Everything is becoming a bit commercial, and to many people on Ketamine 😢. But I do want to join some UK raves in the future💪🏼

'Found' DiY in early 92 and what a relief. All i knew up to then was 'hardcore you know the score'. DiY gave me what id been looking for and was somewhat lacking at the hardcore events. Yeah there were hugs and high fives but the house sound was more universal, more encompassing and more spiritual in my eyes. Heady days.

90's at their finest✌

That is what freedom looks like. Amazing times. Best times of my life. Fantastic.

ah Castlemorton. That weekend I lunched out but my buddies went. I'd been to many free festivals and raves by then. We'd even done some beautiful forest parties ourselves. Even though the raves fizzled out I carried on visiting clubs for the next twenty years. It was a wonderful time to be young.

God I wish I was around for this so bad. Looks like a rad time, truly memorable times. We rave on with these old heads in our hearts.

I was part of the movement from 1987 acid house warehouse parties in Park Royal, London to the summer of Love in 1989-1990. Love every second of it. So happy I did experience the moments of magical connection with wonderful dancing people x ❤

No mention of spiral tribe ? These type of parties (Teknival) still goes on across Europe to this day ....

After this so many sound systems ended up travelling across the Channel to Normandy where i was at the time, we set up amazing parties and even a festival. Wild times.

So happy to start raving a a kid back in late 90s before this new era of kids. If you didn’t know of it back then, you weren’t part of the club. It was only flyers and word of mouth

one of my friends was conceived at castle morton hahaha

6:51 it may not have been a lot of drinking, but there were drugs GALORE.

Wow, Jack Harlow looks different.

🤔😊

guy said DIY bought one of the first "house sound systems in the UK, probably the world." not sure what he meant by this, can anyone clarify? house music had been around for a while by 1992, and there were at least a few pioneering clubs dedicated to house music, going at least as far back as the Warehouse in Chicago, 1977. seems a bit cavalier to say this was "probably" the first house sound system in the world. is this guy just talking out his arse?

Well they did a marvellous advertisement on the ITV news keeping everyone posted on where the convoy was heading they got there public order act and then cheap strong smack arrived on the sites and within a few years the summer travelling scene was gone they were that keen to get rid of travellers it's amazing some of the vehicles they allowed on the ferry lots of which ended there days at the old Berlin wall

FIRST! 🎉

Jack harlow is aging terribly...

Vice misinformation - it was not just castle that led to the CJA it was the ongoing crackdown on whole scene. It was a good event but it wasn’t the pinnacle and many people and organisations partied just as hard if not harder. Furthermore, how un-DIY that DIY choose to do this through VICE. Very sad to see this.

So they even colonized raves 🤦‍♂️
