ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ส.ค. 2024
- This year marks the 25th anniversary of one of Belgium’s most iconic dance labels: Bonzai. The importance this local powerhouse had on ravers and dancefloors worldwide was just astonishing. Multiple generations of fans have grown up with these timeless classics that span from trance to progressive, or the sturdier electronic genres. From bringing out the first record to ultimately becoming a global force with around a dozen sub-labels and hundreds of releases to date, Bonzai have engraved themselves in the definitive history of dance music.
To mark this special occasion that is a quarter century of Bonzai, Red Bull Elektropedia has teamed up with the guys behind this legendary institution to bring you this exclusive one hour documentary, showing you the story of the record label and the worldwide impact it had on the electronic music scene.

Ich erinnere mich an meine erste Mayday 1994 in Dortmund. Da war ich 17 Jahre alt.
House of House...
Bonzai...
Ich habe heute noch Gänsehaut,wenn ich zurück denke.
Danke für die Dokumentation 😊
J'avais 18ans en 1990 j'ai connu Boccaccio Cherry globe la Rocca Balmoral et tout le reste 7 ans de sortie de 90 a 97 7 ans de folie des weekend de 4 a 5 jours non stop de boîte en boîte. Quel folie les années 90 avec la house music bonzai et tout les autre label qui non on fais dancer.
Dit is en blijft toch goud om te zien. Het zou eigenlijk verplicht in het lespakket moeten zitten... maar tot die tijd doen we het met deze docu!
The first rebirth became such a legendary track.
Jones and Stephenson FTW.
15 minuten werk :-0
First time hearing this track at a Rave in early nineties blew my mind ...getting goosebumps just thinking about it
I just found this channel. JUST AMAZING!!!! i was 16 in '92, so missed the best years of destelbergen bocca, and globe,..... We and all friends, had a wonderfull time!! Cherry moon, montini, illusion, carat, globe, extreme,...... We were so lucky to have this moment in time..... With fisherman's, and many other great party things... But without the music it would just never not be the same, but completely not existend!!!! And this, is a periode that we could enjoy, and gave every week a reason to look out to the next weekend.... Untill 2000.... Police started razzia's and just with ridiculous excuses closing every disco. But even now.... They still dance to the same kind of music. What music style survived more then 30 years???!!!! Just 1 bad thing, DJ's like REGI, that wanted commercializing and money.... Nothing about good music, or this culture. He was one of the reasons that the music got less unique and mind-blowing.... Commercializing and the law fucked up the entire peace, love and xtc world!!! Now it's my age, at 46 I'm just old, but still feel the same when I hear this music... I wish all the best for the channel. I hope to see more and more about this period '88 until '99. Many thanks.... Peace?...... No just XTC!! that is a word that explaines the entire moment, and best time for someone that discover going out at 17years.....
zo gelukkig dat ik dit heb mogen meemaken in mijn jeugd... 25 jaar geleden was alles zo veel beter en leuker. We hebben de tijd van ons leven meegemaakt en ze gaan dit nooit meer van ons afnemen. Thanks Bonzai !!!
Born in the 70’s, raised in the 80’s, raved in the 90’s 🎉😎👌
België ja manne , we hebben het toch gestart! Fier zijn!!!!!
en dit jaar allemaal op TML 2018 gestaan ;p
Belgians, yes men. We ´ve started it. Party on. Is that the translation? Translation try from Germany.
@@CRe-pn8yq close, 👌, Belgium, yes guys, we did dit start it, we can be proud!
@@IcEMystPrivate Belgians have a quite good football team these days. They´d deserve a win. If (fucking) Corona let´s it be...
I wasn't born in a time when this music was floating around, but can still appreciate it!
18:30 is so important. You had to go to the club in order to experience the music. No internet, mp3, no major label distribution. Only the clubs first. Harthouse limited the number of records they pressed.
bedankt dj fly , bonzsai records en alle dj's .Bedankt voor al die classics waar ik nu nog naar luister .meer dan 25 jaar later . En ja ik stond in de cherry moon , illusion enz ook te zwaaien met 500 bfr voor een tape , om af te spelen op weg naar huis in een boom car . wat een tijden , dikke merci nogmaals daarvoror !!!!! .
I consider myself to be blessed, because I could play all these killer tracks back in the day in my club. Thank you very much Bonzai for giving me the best time of my life.
Loved this, brought me back to browsing records every Saturday morning in Abbey Discs in Dublin circa 93/94 and seeing many Bonzai records. I actually have an old Members of Mayday mix tape, which has Thunderball playing in it. Great memories! 😊
Great docu. Always loved the Bonzai sound. Respect from Rotterdam
When I lived in lieden I used to shop in cyber records little did I know it was the home of bonzai records, I lived in the haven in Leiden only 300 metres from the shop and I remember the tunes banging out next to new times bar and often went to buy some new tunes. I visited Leiden last year and took a walk down the harlemerstratt to see where it all began. Thanks for the music as cyber records will always be my favourite record shop in Holland in the year 2000.
Extraordinary. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Long live Bonzai Records and its amazing legacy. Listen to good music!. 🙂🎛🎚🎵🎶🚀🌌
thanks r.b - takes me back - bonzai, deruyter - yessssssss - a true story of dance music and what we stood and stand for
Bonzai RULES! Knew it then, know it now, know it will in the future!🙌🏽🙌🏽🤘🏽💖👌🏾
Back to the old days. I whas there! Great memories!
BONZAI TOUTE MA JEUNESSE CES SONS ET CEST REOARTIIII!!!!!
Geweldig om te zien! Rotterdam (Hardcore) en Antwerpen hebben duidelijk hun stempel gedrukt!
Yves deRuyter , Cherry Moon en bollen , the holy trinity !
Respect voor zulke mannen als "Fly" om gewoon ballen te tonen en een label op te richten en het zo GROOT maken!!
Ik ben er mee opgegroeid de "hardcore scene" toen 15 jaar oud. Nu 43 jaar de "Kick" is altijd gebleven💿
Het zit in ons hart en stroomt door onze aderen , gaat er nooit meer uit😍 ben 43 nu en de beste tijd van mijn leven gehad toen
Kippenvel deze reportage! Terug naar vroeger zo hard op gefeest het is een tijd die mij voor de rest van mijn leven zal bijblijven!
Booonzai🖤💛❤you stoled my heart💙😍💯🥳✌🏻👍🏻in 1992-94🥳😜,that was an increadible Partytime for me and a lots of other Ravers all around Europe, and maybe around the whole World✌🏻👊🏻🤘🏻,not even the Recordlabels from Frankf.../ Südhessen couldn't change my mind at that time love love love and Oldskool never die Bonzai forever 🥇🏆🥇🔊👣🖤💛❤💃🕺🖤❤💛👣🔊🤗🤘🏻
Bonzai,Kult der 90er..😇die gute alte Zeit 😢
Sound of BELGIUM 🇧🇪❤
Als ik aan de Cherry Moon nog eens passeer in Lokeren krijg ik nog altijd een crop in de keel. Wat een periode ! Die sfeer in die mega clubs toen met Bonzai muziek, dat blijft toch uniek.
Na zoveel jaar, al die platen op een deftige hifi setup afspelen toont ook goed hoe sommige platen in elkaar zijn geflanst, maar als dat aan't knallen wat in de dance tempel met +100dB maakte het allemaal niet veel meer uit. Zelfs zonder drugs kan je perfect in trace geraken met deze iconische schijven. Leuk ook om dit stukje te sluiten met El Punto Final ! Mooie reportage.
El Punto finale!!!! What a trip down memory lane. Thx!
Des sous titres disponible en français ce serait génial. Toute la Wallonie et le nord de la France ont adhérés et contribués au succès de ce mouvement légendaire. Love bonzaï 💙
Oui ce serait génial
En français
Reupload avec des sous-titres en français alors. Je suis sûre que tu va avoir beaucoup de views.
Bonzai Records! Only but ❤️ forever!
Ja zeg! De muziek was super! En serieus zotjes! Het feesten dat er aan toe kwam heeft veel coole dingen gedaan! Namelijk een nieuwe generatie dj's gemaakt! Cultureel gezien kan Bonzai tellen!
Simplemente cultura y arte . Hermoso documental . Gracias por esto..... ♥️✌. Bonzaiforever. Vinylforever.
Legendary story about legends. Thanks!
en of het toen feesten was, dankzij Bonzai hebben we de beste feesttijd mogen meemaken , THX
It braught me back to my youth. FANTASTIC
Thank you very much for this, a real master piece of our recent music history.
Ik heb ergens een cd liggen uit 2001 van bonzai met reaching out. Wat een track is dat!
Sam Paganini
wow, i have a new respect for redbull for making this documentary.
Love bonzai 4 Ever 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😮😊🎉
Glad to be part of it 🖤👊💫
The best.... It's Bonzai records 🤷 !
We`ve left the classroom and went to the toilet to listen just for some minutes to tracks like "the first rebirth" on our AIWAwalkmans.
amazing label and documentary😍
amazing!!! thank you. the best label in the world. Bonzai Records ❣️✨🎶🔝👌🏽
Our floppy disk ran out of memory space!
BONZAI "wie is daar niet groot mee geworden" absoluut het beste export product uit Belgie.
Hello from Belgium , i'm electrician at work but also an electronic music dj especially "retro techno) , cherrymoon bonzai at the villa la bush montiny h2o la rocca and co .....i miss thoses days .......
PS : 1977 boy i knwo what i say ^^
The Bonzai truck on the Loveparade was Legendary (Loud :))
That old intro from their website
10:28 was played during the legendary PCP club night on HR3. Great track.
Worldclass timeless sounds!
El punto finalllllle......... Omg!!!!!! I thought I was old and just not for me anymore....... Just listening after 25years..... I get the same feeling. Yes the Beatles, many many great songs made in the 80's...... But do they give the same effect as this?! I thought it was great xtc, but just listening it again.... Feels still the same!!! I hope that before I die, they give me just an xtc and the good old '90s house!!!! And die in peace.... What can go wrong?
thanks MIKE!!!!!!
Bonzai

The footage around 7:46 is part of an amazing television broadcast from around 1994 with Gerty Christoffels. The broadcast used to be on youtube a long time ago. Does anyone still have it and care to re-upload it?
I'm also looking for this broadcast for some time now. I think it was called 'Domino' with Gerty Chistoffels. Please let me know when someone finds it .

in de zone precies.
We need good well known good record stores in the UK and get the records imported as all the major stores have gone bankrupt or cannot order them in .curriers don't give don't care about fragile items
WHOOPS
creamm set gezien op youtube van alec ven tja prachtig 👍👍👍
🔊🎶Bonzai tsai tsai! 🤣😜
lol at trying to promote Bonzai in Japan not realizing they were using an old WWII flag on their label, it's like trying to promote some record with an old WWII German swastica flag here, that's just asking for trouble xD
Excelente 🤙🤙
Des sous-titres français svp
❤❤❤
When trance was trance and it needs to make a return badly. EDM needs to die and make DJ, club and rave culture great again. From 1970's - mid 2000's where the underground analog turntablist feel, vibe, skill really thrived. Great documentary though.
Hey Grambo, we should share it with Yvette!😂
@@cyclotronbxl I think we should, But I don't want to create any drama either
that zoom on 23:19 haha
Existe una versión subtitulada al español? Gracias
Hey de miguel hier groetjes.
