When i started partying in 2000 it was totally different from what it is now. I know there is ppl on here that have been doing it for a lot longer than me and i bet you they would say that the scene is almost unrecognisable from what it used to be. So the answer to your question is yes.

Maybe its because your new...I dont know...but I hate to tell you, raves have been mainstream for a while.
I've been partying for 5 years and in that time, I've watched raves get proggressively more and more mainstream as the years pass. |

on the contrary, i think raves are going back 'underground'. They hit a peak of popularity in the mid-90's, and have been on the slow decline ever since.
When the first raves out here were happening, late 80's-early 90's, it was a really exclusive thing.... as in, none of y'all high-school kids would've even known about it. It wasn't until a couple of years later that the scene bcame over run with teenagers, which was essentially when it died for a lot of us. It lost it's mystique when it became a massive commercial enterprise, but that didn't really matter because the kids were there, the money was there, and the promoters were there in droves to capatalize on this 'new' phenomenon. I DJed at a lot of raves during that time, but i never saw anything close to the vibe of the early parties i'd attended. What really killed it for me was when crystal meth became popular. After that i couldn't even stand to be at a rave. Still to this day, i find them tacky & unpleasant. whoo-hoo. |
