r/Raves

I've been a regular to this club since February, but I won't be going again any time soon. It was supposed to open at 9:30 and they didn't let people in until 10:20, the cover charge was doubled to $10, the music was way too loud, and I was given a full pat-down even though I was only the few people that showed up (and a regular). This place has apparently changed hands many times since COVID. The fact that it is behind Jack's doesn't help it, but none of the previous owners advertised it very well. I'll check out Vice next time.

I’m going to my first rave with a friend and was hoping I could get some outfit help it’s slurpee themed on 7/11 and I know that I want to wear light blues and some pinks/reds for the cherry and blue raspberry flavors

Anyone going to the 4th of july rave tn? I’m going with my gf and her friends and wanna meet some new ppl! Let me know if any of you will be there and wanna meet up! :) ( I’m 19f )

Philly area!

Alright long story short I was posted on an "are we dating the same guy" Facebook page by a scorned ex. 90% of it was outright lies, but that's besides the point. Would it be funny or offensive if I got a custom shirt that said "As previously seen on are we dating the same guy". Thoughts?

I used to be very into raving before my bf and I got together… and long story short he has no interest in going because it’s “not for couples”. He states he’s afraid of the way women at raves dress, including the way I would dress at a rave. I told him I would go covered head to toe if it meant we could go and he still won’t budge on going with me or letting me go on my own with friends because it’s “not for couples”. Am I being unreasonable in wanting to go to a rave while in a relationship? It was my biggest hobby before we got together and honestly I don’t know what to do. If he doesn’t want to go I won’t force him, but I haven’t gone to a rave in almost a year and I miss it. Any rave couples able to chime in and give me some advice on it?

I dress pretty extra for most people’s standards but when i go out for techno related things i dress up a little more then i already do. So I’m a bit confused what a casual dress code would mean for a rave since i also see a lot of people dress extra for raves.

Oh yeah its groove and bounce

How is the event going to be, what to expect, what about Ty xx from dice and transferring and is it worth it

Wir (zwei junge Erwachsene) sind dieses Wochenende in der Stadt und suchen nach einem authentischen Ort zum Raven. Wir haben uns schon etwas umgeschaut und haben folgende Adressen auf dem Schirm:

-​Bahnwärter Thiel

​-Lieberscholli

-​Rote Sonne

​Wir sind musikalisch eher auf der Techno-Schiene unterwegs.

Vielen lieben Dank für eure Hilfe.

Currently single and ready to mingle and hoping to spice up my dating game. I’m considering doing a fun thing where I hand out QR codes (“boyfriend applications”) to guys I find attractive and the QR code takes them to a google form letting them know I think they’re cute along with a quick fun questionnaire that lets them drop their contact info.

This is mostly just a fun/silly thing for me with a small hope that it could lead to some cool interactions. My only concern is I don’t want to offend anyone or come off as super weird. Guys, how would you react if you received a dating card like this?

Edit: I realize that the QR code/questionnaire may come across as sketchy, but its main purpose is so that they can leave behind their contact info and I don’t get my contact info passed around to random people

Когда впервые хочешь попробовать кокс, но в последнее время и так чувствуешь себя как на американских горках.

What to expect, plz advise where people can transfer dice ti xx and is it gonna be fun

Here we go...

I hereby apologize for the length, I just can't control my rantings... but keep on reading, you might find it interesting or questionn8ng.

Anyway what's done is done.

One of my fav music has quite evolved since I first got hooked by Ed Rush, Optical & other UK or commonwealth artists, Dieselboy for the us of a...

It evolved so & so that at my great [& unpleasant] surprise it has been labeled, quite horribly imao [-> Neurofunk !!! 😳😩😔]

Anyway I recently began to refocus on music, even found myself wanted again to attend parties, parties that I stopped enjoying then going to when what I predicted in our early years of "ONE PPL ONE RAVE" [back in 1991 if I correctly recollect] came true :

I quote myself --> "Today we are seen as degenerates, they call us RAVERS with disgust and disdain and claim that 'popping pills while frantically moving your body till sunup (and generally back to sundown ! 🤪) ain't & wont ever be my thing' like they are our betters we dumb, debrained junkies and our 'BOOM-BOOM-BOOM'.

Well I tell you that these fuckers we flee to live our thing together, the birth of a brand new cultural movement so big, inspiring and unifying, the emergence of a whole new universe that brings us freedom and joy, benevolence, friendship, generosity, self acceptance & so on... Well I tell you that one day sooner than you may think these fuckers will infiltrate and subjugate our dream, pervert it, and then, defenceless will you witness their appropriation of our culture, the ultimate mockery, the final insult... While diligently pushing your cart through the Pet's food alley of your favourite superstore you'll catch a familiar but unharmonious tune recognising House, Techno, Transe or Drum & Bass patterns twisted, sweetened, perverted to fit in advertisings on TV or any supermarket, everybody loves Techno now ! You've been robbed, therefore returning to your early state of "un-special", the mass has caught you up while you felt complacent, the mass ingested you, or is trying...

So enjoy while you can, that's what I intend to do till' those nightclubs rats and their so called disc-jockeys that are nothing more than vinyl pushers and button pressers [Eat shit David GUETTA & the likes of you ! Curse to your cohorts of brain dead uncultured fans !!! 🤬🤬🤬] self-blowing frauds with no imagination, inspiration, nor ability to make us feel things through their mastering of their MK2's, TB303 etc..., the breaking of their limits, birthing sound waves their creators never imagined rising from.

We feel connected, belonging as we witness the assembling of singular, technically demanding art, new tunes created right before our eyes by pure talent, commitment, all of this for and with us, there aren't no masters nor puppets, we are intertwined, the artist responding to the pulse of the crowd before him as much as the crowd blissfully follows the waves he emits through giant speakers walls... UNITY & INTERCONNECTION !!!

Those truly talented ppl we happily let us catch by the ear and willingly abandon ourselves to, as we follow them through their journey to the sounds, emerging some hours later realizing we are so fucking thirsty or hungry, never angry nor sad, but lighter, no heavy weight on our shoulders dragging us down but definitely lightness drivin us up while definitely so filled and full of emotions, vibrations, so many truly pleasant feelings that we know we share with each human surrounding us cos' we recognise the same bliss, ours, in every glance we meet, in those moments no need to speak, just a genuine gentle, honest warm smile, a glint of mutual understanding and complicity, some flirt even and then the beat makes us part ways, happy, feeling so fucking free and damn good, cadencing to the next adventure the next artist will invite us in... PURE BLISS & MAGICK !!!

Seeing a brand new tune made of two, three, man I saw Liza'n'Eliaz play on 5 turntables. They created that day an irresistible wave of sound made of ultra-pitched House classics, australian H-core, even some STEREOLAB [a marvel of UK pop].

To me a real Dj... Heck ! He's a real and good one when you can't identify from wich turntable comes this and that sound, when you see him twitch full on the one on his left, muting sounds you could have sworn where part of the main tune you are responding to for several minutes, too many minutes by the way, all of wich couldn't be contained on the engravings of this obsidian plate... CREATION BEFORE YOUR EYES !!!

As you may have noticed I am a passionate person and I thank & congratulate each of those who read me so far...

In my return back to basics I had the pleasure of finding ONE mix that engaged me further to my re-exploration of the sounds I scream over, that make me losing my air jumping, trying to follow the beat, then the snare, the tweet, ho let's try the bass... & so on.

That particular set I found on Souncloud was performed by OPSEN and is named KILLCAST 15, TRENDKILLRECORDS.

I truly recommend... then it lends me to EATBRAIN etc...

I should stop...

What are the general norms around posting identifying info about others met at the festival—? What are best practices for this and accepted standards in community?

In this day and age, with proliferation of surveillance and use of information about individuals to make hiring decisions relevant to their careers and it’s ability to affect employment opportunities this is a huge question in my mind.

People deserve their privacy if they want it.

E.g. I took some pictures of cool people I met at the festival with their permission but I’m hesitant to post them to help them find the pictures of themselves because I don’t know what they do for a living and I don’t know what the ramifications could be for someone else recognizing them because I posted a picture of them.

Maybe they told her employer that they were taking care of their sick grandma and then this pops up on the Internet and they get fired. Likewise maybe someone at the festival had a stalker and me intentionally posting a picture of them is what lead said stalker to finally be able to locate where they live or other information that was missing that was keeping that person from being identified.

I don’t want to doxx others and I don’t want to doxx myself.

Not a fan of the music, but I enjoy the atmosphere and fashion of certain spaces, so it's not uncommon that rave related videos will pop up on my feeds- and there's something I've noticed in most of the comment sections. That being comments like-

"Modern raves are so demonic"

"I'm glad I got out before the culture was taken over by devil worshippers"

"People didn't dress like satanists back when I was a raver"

"I love raves but it's so hard to go with all the demonic energy"

"Raves used to be God honoring"

"I wish the scene would return to Jesus"

Etc

What's the context of these sorts of comments? Did EDM/techno/related music genres originate from/with a religious population? Are these trolls? Bots? Apologies in advance if this isn't the place for this post but I've been wondering about it for ages now
