Not unusual to bring DJ's, etc., out from London or such for one night. But
it is expensive. Such is LA.

Yeah, but I can do this at home (especially helped by some XL with some R & S.)
I go to raves to interact with people, to meet new ones, to dance myself to new
physical heights, and pretend that maybe civilization _does_ have a hope for
the future....

I dunno... I there's no way I could sit still, either listening to music or
dosed or both.  The lasers would be fascinating, but there's a certain 
plateau of emotion that exists when you dance for hours on end...

Yes.  If I could afford it and others were there too, yes.

Some people get ADDICTED to yogurt. What's your point? I don't see it as a

Well, yeah, in the sense that people go to raves to shed all their mental
baggage, such as work stress and school and such, but many people take 
something away from the "rave" experience with them when they leave.

Well, kids, there has been lots of unanswered speculation and

WELL, here they are:

1. Title: The Orb "The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld:

2. Format: VHS (NTSC)
3. Label: Big Life (Catalogue #: BLV 2)
4. Contents: I VHS Video and 1 (one) CD
5. Running Time: 52'30"
6. Cost: $48 U.S.
7. Style: Montage of video manipulated by Video Toaster, scenes of

	4) perpetual dawn

	6) outlands

9. Other Notes:
	The Music to the Video is Duplicated on the bonus CD. The
show was recorded live at the Brixton Fringe on May 12, 1992. The
live music was digitally remastered for the video and CD. Like the
Rumour says, you can cue up the CD simultaneously to the video and
not miss anything. Sound quality ont he Video is fair, but the CD is
quite up to scratch.

10. The CD is limited edition, and not available separately (at
least that's what the packaging says. One more thing: the Video
comes in a high quality plastic box like the ones at rental stores,
instead of that cheap cardboard crap most music videos do.
11. The CD is ONE track, so you can't skip to separate songs.

I hope this is helpful for everyone who is interested.

There is a place called the Laserium in London, where they bascially
sit you down in a planetarium, and shoot lasers all around w.
accompanying music.  I saw this a few years ago, I'm sure they
must have a techno show by now.

These "best of rave" picks are from several compilation Cd's I
borrowed from a friend... and I do mean "rave" (these are the only
songs which I consider have that rave sound):

"Gaza"	by	Andromeda
"Euphoria"		Euphoria
"Raving Madd"	Middle Finger
"Get On Down"	SBKO 69
"Dominator"		Human Resource (has that industrial power-drill
			                rave sound)
"Bostich"		Yello   (goes "Everybody! Be Somebody!")
"Hardcore Heaven"	DJ Seduction
"Different Strokes"	Isotonik

And the Lords Of Acid album "LUST" is a MUST FOR EVERYONE!
LOA is such an awesome group..  There are four songs which have
a rave or rave-like sound:
"Let's Get High", "Pump My Body to the Top", "Mixed Emotions",
and "Take Control" (which is a radio hit here in Houston)..

speaking of radio hits, here in Houston, Power 104 (KRBE) has
played Zero Zero's "Zeroxed", Messiah's "Temple of Dreams",
and has WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY OVERPLAYED "James Brown is Dead"..
But, other than that, Houston sucks on the rave scene..

Hope this "Dream Rave Compilation" list helps some of ya'll...
..hopefully those eleet-1's will post there dream lists, 2, 4 me..

I hate to burst your bubble, but with the current US>>UK exchange rate
you won't be saving a whole lot of money.  When I was in Ireland (similar
exchange rates) I had to shell out $20 to $25 for CDs.  I bought my import
Shamen Cd in the US last year for $20.  Figuring in the of your plane 
ticket you can expect to pay several hundred bucks for a Cd ;^).

Don't be surprised if all of those gorgeous Cds are overpriced.  
It makes me wonder.  Do  you UKan's get payed more than us 'Merkins
or something?  How do you afford those damned CD prices.  I can't imagine
the cost of importing something from the US!

At a recent outdoor rave here on July 4th, "Let Freedom Rave", a laser 
company (the same one whose number I gave you, Pete) pulled their van up
and from a window projected a 7 watt laser show across the main dance
floor against a hillside. There was a ton of what seemed like non-sequiter
animation sequences and cool geometricities and such, and when I went to
talk to them and say good work, it turns out they were playing a pre-taped
show set to Pink Floyd's The Wall!!!  The only input they had was switching
from red to green on beat every now and then... it was till marvellous, though,
and I don't think it would make much difference to me (unless they used the
same sequence at two different raves).

	Brian

p.s. - a planetarium would work, but how could you convince them to take out
the seats?  And how can you dance staring straight up??? :)

Human Resource ("Dominator, "The Joker") had an album out ("Dominating The
World", I think).  It was a double LP.  Dunno if it's on CD.

The other canonical answer is - if I don't take your "full Techno" quote too
literally - is The Future Sound of London "Accelerator" album, which certainly
does exist on CD and it's something that everyone reading this post should own.
Truly innovative and genre-breaking stuff.

No, no, no, no!!  My siter, when she moved to Dublin, sent me several
"Hardcore" compilations because she thought that I liked this kind of
music.  Another one she sent over had Right Said Fred, Oceanic and DNA.
Fortunately, she's back in the USA where she can't do any more damage,
otherwise she probably would have sent "Red Hot and Dance" with all
of those great (Not!)  Red Hot tracks by George Micheal et.al.
