Acid-house provides a more intense, liquid sound. Techno is constituted of a variety of different types of sounds and is usually the most familiar type of music to strangers to the rave scene. After the vocabulary of music, the most important list to learn is the vocabulary of substances. People are usually on ecstasy, or Ketamine, which is otherwise known as 'Special K'. LSD is also a familiar rave drug.
Clothing also shapes the rave culture.
When I went to raves I wore big pants, which made it comfortable to dance in, and big designer clothes. Other people wear articles with glitter, visors and hats. Let's put it this way, ravers don't forget to accessorize. Storm said she is frustrated with rave commercialization, which has seeped into the typical rave attire. They buy big brand names like UFO and Polo, with Adidas visors.
