It is a very bittersweet moment as I announce that this will be Hullabaloo’s last season and we plan to cease event throwing on our 8th year anniversary, July 9, 2005. That will be our 44th event in total, a near unprecedented run that only a very small amount of production companies in the entire world have ever reached. I think everyone knew we couldn't go on forever and I wanted to end on the high note that Hulla so much deserves.
The legacy of Hullabaloo is one of the most formidable of the entire history of underground music. Since Hulla is unlike any other promotion and means so much to so many people we thought it deserved a going-out unlike anything before, so we’re giving it a bit of time. That leaves us just four more times to come together and live the magic that has made Hulla what it is. We’ll have three regularly scheduled shows, and then of course a final send-off that we’re sure will be filled with such emotion the likes of which have never been seen.
I started Hullabaloo to promote the kind of music I loved and wanted to hear out myself. Unlike the regular path of a high profile DJ, I knew the scene would be better served this way more than anything else I could do. After all, this music was meant to be heard in one way – at a rave. Little did I know then how much that decision would resonate with generation after generation of partier and such a phenomenon would be born. While Hulla would never have existed if Happy2bHardcore didn’t come before it, the effect of Hullabaloo on the scene and the people who attended our events has been far more profound than even selling over 400,000 Happy2BHardcore CDs.
I’ve been working on a book about my journey and all the behind-the-scenes stuff that no one is privy to, and now that book will have an ending. I hope some of you who have never been take this opportunity to be part of this final chapter instead of just reading about it and for everyone who was part of the adventure along the way I’d like to thank you for your contribution to rave history.
With much love,
Chris Frolic
