Ishkur's Guide to Rave Culture

[tiedye]

I'm sure someone will post a link to another thread about this site.. but it made me laugh so here it is:
http://www.ishkur.com/culture/

there are some hilariously misguided definitions and "facts" throughout the whole section of the page. I'm looking forward to looking through other sections of it.

[tiedye]

Camo pants
Extremely useful for when ravers need to blend in with their surroundings to avoid detection from enemy snipers. At a rave, this actually happens more often than not.

Breaks (Breakbeat)
House music where the maker forgot a beat here and there. (see House)

Bunk
Probably the single greatest factor that prevents ravers from having as much fun as they could be having at a party.
The first half of the night will be spent lamenting about it. The second half of the night will be spent looking for their dealer.

hahaha, on second thought... it might actually be intended as a joke.

Old news.

[zarlon]

^ amen.

[Mr.Dave]

You suck because you found this at a different point in time from other people!!!!!

[tiedye]

well.. you never know.. right? some of us just don't live on the internet, hehe.

[Clayton.]

That's a bad excuse for being lame dude.

[tiedye]

haha, will you ever forgive me? I just don't know if I can live with myself anymore..

[Mr.Dave]

Heh. I think I'm going to go to an ESL class tomorrow and scoff at all the newbs. Wanna come?

ishkur is a vancouver old schooler man, this site is like sooooooo 1998

[tiedye]

In 1998, I lived 10 hours from the nearest rave scene and was also 11 years old. Next time I'm surfing the net, I'll try to be born earlier...=)

hahaha TOUCHE!

ish (ken i believe?) was the man behind the blowhard, pretensious, "state of the scene addresses" back in the lx days. He wrote some scathingly sarcastic and funny shit!

I always wondered if this site was just a big fuckyou, to "scensters" at the time, or perhaps he was one them?

[ja_raul]

Say what you want, his "Guide to Electronic Music" is _still_ the most exhaustive and extensive of it's kind on the web.

To say NOTHING about how intolerable he got once his site was made mandatory reading for a couple of courses at a US university...

But, get him drinkin' saki and smokin' BC's finest....

Go for: "Give Free"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've never understood why people feel the need to cut someone down because they knew of said information 5 or 6 years ago. It's new to him and undoubtedly it'll be new to a bunch of other people on this board as well.

You pretentious shits need to take a pill or something and leave the newbs alone. Dominate the newbs with your RAVE POWER.

On a related note Kent's review of Shambhala is one hell of an entertaining read: http://www.ishkur.com/shambhala/index.php
