It was proper underground raves, when the music exploded and the scene took off, first half of the 90s, if you were there you know, be it in Detroit, London, Germany, wherever - it was bigger better and longer than Woodstock, every weekend, a real sense of global community and kinship better than that which briefly made an appearance in the 60s, by the time it got to be the soundtrack to commercials and became a fashion term, it had just about ended. If you weren't there, I'm sorry, but it happened and was the most significant cultural epoch of this generation, and in many ways marked the end of historical cultural movements.
Everthing in the music scene since has been derivative or either it (eg Justice style 'electro house', nuRave), or previous cultures - rock, blues, and rock and roll.
Sorry kids, but that was it.- I was there. But it was still commonplace. Epic for me, but nothing like telling people I was at woodstock.era4O4
