It's great you guys still appreciate these times. It was a fantastic film to make, but I wasn't responsible for the voiceover, it was added later by the BBC to suit a middle aged audience. I made this film in 1992 - the police were dead genuine and I could only find that one woman who objected. Good times! (I'm the filmmaker, Boris Mcgooligan.)
Lol how old does this look It reminds me of something we watched in theb99's about the 60's and 70's and said they look well old Started raving in 91 and still got great memories from many of years of raving . A great time to be 18
@mcgooligan AWESOME! glad to see this 18 years after you made it... and people around the world are viewing it. Thanks for documenting history! - Mike (California, USA)
House? People carried on making house, but by ‘92 hardcore was on the cutting edge... thats why most all the tracks played in this video are hardcore breakbeat tunes
89-95 great times and it was fantastic to be in your late teens/early twenties then. Never once saw any trouble at raves. A copper at the time told me he preferred policing raves over town centres full of drunks anyday as all the people were loved up and were no trouble! I feel sorry for youngsters today, what have the poor bastards got other than P. Fucking Diddy and eating plant food.
thoses were the days music was at it's best & a night out was a good night out not like these days where people get so drunk talk rubbish have fights & listen to the same old music that is played on the radio over & over again
I used to visit some back in the early 90's but I wonder are there any raves these days in the UK or are happenings in the fields today all official festival things and legal commercial stuffs ?
I happen to enjoy the scene as much as I did since the late 80's, too many winers who say it used to be better and now its crap. The only thing I can think of that is missing is the freshness factor, music is produced way better, of course now there is more people who think they can produce good music. It seems most people just grow out of it and say it sucks now, I happen to love it still, no complaints here. Good film!
"It's a rave" and they wre fucking brilliant, doves, new yorkers, apples. Abd guess we're all still here, no mental issues. Big fuss about fuck all, like we didn't know.....
I had this on VHS and watched it more than once. It was a well-balanced non-judgemental documentary. I thought the police were great in it, common sense coppers. Great job Boris
Guess "people" hate others broadening their conciousness though acid house and there-after. Now they got drunken rockers, R&B freaks and teenage girls running wild on mass-produced pop boy bands.
Seriously whats worse? A rave with no attitude and good vibes or every town centre in the uk every weekend now, with drunken fights, stabbings and feral kids running wild?
That copper is right at 9:38, not everyone took e, or anything else. I often went with just my camera, and boy do I have pictures that could ruin careers now! Good job I don't know who the hell those people were!
And the mad geordie raver later on "yeah i like raving...put a tent on the top of windermere that's me!" aaah aahh ahaha ah Fackin hilarious. Good times.
@M4dMo77o Relapsed (Intense Mix) Urban Hype. Yes, Urban Hype! You heard me right. Best tune they released. Well compared to that pile of shit "Trip to trumpton" anyhow.
@welshhibby you are so right man, these days they're using electro house and this electropop shit and nu rave and calling it rave. And calling these electronic clubs and concerts with high prices raves. Bullshit. Raves are free and fun.
I wanted to live in the UK so bad in the early 90's. The US was going through its grunge phase, and pretty much all electronic music was basically ignored. There were raves here, but they consisted mainly of goths, druggies, and snobby rich kids. And they weren't underground parties. They were heavily advertised and sponsored by corporations who were trying to be "cool".
Is funny the way he said 12 hours of frantic dancing lol omg frantic dancing someone call Isis FFS, it's the end of the world, dancing frantically for 12 hours straight OMG I've never heard anything so crazy loads of young uns moving their arms and legs in continuing motion, somebody better call the cops, there off their chops lol

Do you have this on a dvd at all Boris, as in one complete program?
@@BarnacleBill77 Unfortunately not - we lost the master during a reshuffle of our office a few years ago. I wish we did still have it.
@@bmcgoo6027 ok thanks....what a shame you lost it....i'd love to see all the film that was edited out too :)
Boris, how is it? Still Raving... 😁
it's a rave. 12 hours of non stop dance music. That is one hell of a sample!!!
I was there all night. Friday 13th December 1991 and Friday 13th February 1992. Superb.
Lol how old does this look
It reminds me of something we watched in theb99's about the 60's and 70's and said they look well old
Started raving in 91 and still got great memories from many of years of raving .
A great time to be 18

That police officer is one of a kind!!!!
@mcgooligan
Memories mate. Great Documentary on BBC 2 if i remember right. Thanx for sharing it, i could'nt believe it when i stumbled across it.
Quite funny watching this now - Smokey Joe is a friend of mine who I dj with - I never knew him when he had hair!
Drug pushers?? I don't think anyone ever had to push drugs on someone at a rave. LOL
House? People carried on making house, but by ‘92 hardcore was on the cutting edge... thats why most all the tracks played in this video are hardcore breakbeat tunes
89-95 great times and it was fantastic to be in your late teens/early twenties then. Never once saw any trouble at raves. A copper at the time told me he preferred policing raves over town centres full of drunks anyday as all the people were loved up and were no trouble!
I feel sorry for youngsters today, what have the poor bastards got other than P. Fucking Diddy and eating plant food.
The DJ with that CLASSIC Arsenal shirt/jersey heh heh heh...

@mcgooligan great work mate!! love this :)
That cop at 9.15 is a sound fella.
SUperb! happy days indeed.
Andy Carrol's (West Ham United) long lost brother :)
@letallnf track at :22 is called Urban hype feat mikee B - Relapsed (General Surgeons remix)
putting up that 'portable warehouse', as the commentator calls it, looks fun!
thoses were the days music was at it's best & a night out was a good night out not like these days where people get so drunk talk rubbish have fights & listen to the same old music that is played on the radio over & over again
I used to visit some back in the early 90's but I wonder are there any raves these days in the UK or are happenings in the fields today all official festival things and legal commercial stuffs ?
Those where the days, we had fun and the police just stood by, no trouble and everybody went home happy.
@kolakube123 dude that's the funniest shift I have heard in quite a while. Props
@Smiffster2006
You've summed it up perfectly matey!
this is hardcore not house music
Quality days \©/

"It's a rave" and they wre fucking brilliant, doves, new yorkers, apples. Abd guess we're all still here, no mental issues. Big fuss about fuck all, like we didn't know.....

They were the days.....dance all night like an idiot and could not walk the next morning. ohhh yeahhhhhhh
The good ol' days
The tune at the beginning is Mikey B and Urban Hype - Relapsed (Surgeon Generals remix)

Fuk this is so old Boris was probably there bopping lol
@justinium77 No wonder I lost the Id to this CLASSIC !! Hahaha , mate your a star ;-)> BIG UPS !!!!

@itsonlyoldskool Thanks mate :)
@SirCalvingunner
Just being honest mate. I can actually remember dealers being called pushers back then too. haha, great days back then.
Seriously whats worse? A rave with no attitude and good vibes or every town centre in the uk every weekend now, with drunken fights, stabbings and feral kids running wild?
