What's yours?
Kum Bah Ya...
I'm sooo wild!
Rave alarm? We choose to go to the moon? Take me to the top- dream frequency?
Awaits endless YouTube links posted up which I can't be bothered clicking..
Camisra - let me show you.
Big chunky piano, love it.
Praga Kahn, injected with a poison.
Not rave per se but it is THE anthem 
That wasn't what I meant at all, it was
K Klass - Let me show you.
bizarre inc. - playing with knives.
Probably anything with a bpm of 130 and up 🙂
I can quite honestly say that I rarely remember a track title, or even the DJ when I was / am raving. Considering that if I did take note, then I wasn't doing it right. 😀
digital orgasm- running out of time
Playing with knives is a good shout.
Rhythm Quest - Close to all you dreams (Hybrid mix) is a favourite of mine.
Or
Let the music use you -nightwriters but I am old and was raving in 88

dj rap & Aston - spiritual aura
omni trio - renegade snares

Age of Love - Age of Love

Plus about a thousand more. Sadly a lot of old rave/house tracks are showing there age now and I would struggle to listen to my old mix tapes.
TRS - Soap on a rope 😆

quadrophenia
i can listen to any of above anytime apart from the more commercial ones anyway.

Love Decade - Is this a dream
Basshead - Anybody out there
Just too many to name.
Ahh... happy hazy nights, warehouse parties in Blackburn... convoys from Sett End... Quadrant Park, Shaboo, Hackets, Shellys, Hac, The revenge parties... got a tear in my eye!
a much misspent youth that I wouldn't change for the world!
life seems so tame now. how old is too old to rave anyway???

One of my all time favourites.
Indeed Lowey! Wigan Pier, Legends, Angels in Burnley, Zone in Blackpool, Dream all nighters in Leeds, Back to Basics. Orbit in Morley. Then giving the police the run around at the motorway services on the way between 😀
All very, very messy! And bloody brilliant fun!!!!!
Faithless - God is a DJ
A lot of other stuff I could list (130 bpm+) would be fine for an actual rave, but that track works just about everywhere.
Origin Unknown - Valley Of The Shadows
Ray Keith - Terrorist
Aphrodite -Bomber
J Majik - Spaced Invader
DJ Red Alert & Mike Slammer - Ruff
Moving Fusion - Turbulence
This thread is ace.
Needs more Altern-8?
Commander Tom - Are am Eye
Nostrum - Brilliant
Don't make me wait!
Some good shouts up there. Particularly liking the LFO one.
This one always brings a smile to my face and a shiver up my spine
And if you don't like this one then you're dead from the neck up. Takes me back to the Arks at Leeds Poly
Faithless? Absolutely NO

Red alert + mike slammer - in effect
Goldie - terminator
It would appear Binners and Lowey that we may be cut from the same cloth 🙂
I'm 38 and I just missed out on the free party scene of the early 90s in warehouses, quarries and beaches. I remember my elder brother going to them and I saw the flyers wondering what they were. I got into it when the scene moved into the clubs. We used to drive to Life at Bowlers in trafford park, I've also been to angels, wigan pier, orbit to name a few. Older, I now listen to drum n bass & dub with artist favourites including Freestylers, Krafty Kuts, Bukem, Nero and Flux Pavilion. It's very interesting to look back at how dance music developed, a lot of these tunes given above bear a lot of resemblance to contemporary tunes.
Me too jekkyl. Jungle was just emerging in London clubs and pirate stations when I moved away to go to college there. Music was changing so fast and so much. Good times to be a yoof
Oceanic-Insanity
Anthem - njoi
'I've said it once and I'll say it again, dance while the record spins' haha 😉
This is the first really big choon that I can remember. Think I was about fifteen at the time!!
I love these threads but I have just wasted about an hour listening to Rezerection and Helter Skelter sets on You Tube 😀
Damn, couldn't get it to embed!
Brings back memories of listening to all this on local pirate radio. Back then though you couldn't find out what the tracks were called to get copies. Still have tapes of recordings of pirate radio shows!
Gonna smash the **** out of this thread when i get home 😆
Helter Skelter was ace. Also liked the Mark EG and Mzone sets.
Ok a little more trancey than above but flippin' eck what a storming track!
Gonna smash the **** out of this thread when i get home
Amen Brother.
Got over 18 gig of old house from late 80 and early 90's at home.
Happy days with so many menories. Massive warehouse party in Nelson getting raided... pandemonem. Beach parties at Star Gate Blackpool after getting out of Shaboo. Watching the Sun come up on Knutsford Services after a night at Shelleys with about 1000 other loons!
Ace.
Glad this went down well. Was listening to acid in 89/90 as a 14/15 year old. Then at 16 rave was uh-mazing. Tape packs, flyers, hanging out in Ruby Red Records in Wolves with Neil and the crew. Truly good times, plenty of smiles and the obligatory after party round some randoms who might have a copy of a Fantazia video.
Just got a bit nostalgic as we moved to Oz and I saw a flyer for an "old skool" night.
*sigh* those carefree days...
Felix - don't you want me
Ooofft!
If you are going to post N-Joi at least have the decency to put a video with Saffron in it. What a honey.
This used to go down soooooo well, happy days...

I always tried to find this tune, but ended up with Liquid Sweet Harmony and knew something was missing... this is proper:
Anything that had Cronk noises in it outside with big sound systems before the police arrived. Never a big fan of listening to it in the house and too old for all nighters now as it takes too long to recover.
Bloody amateurs 😉
Oh , and......
..and well doe to Tiesto for finally coming up with a killer track; belting version of adajio for strings.
Oh sod it *steps away from thread*
Back in the day I probably met half of the people on this thread who went to Bowlers, Wigan pier.
"Alright mate, what's your name? Where you from? What you on? 😆
As for the after club place to go to it was Rivington services for us. Well it was until the police closed it off after rival drug gangs tried to take over the "rights" of selling gear on the carpark and tear gassed the place 😯 😥
FOUND IT!!!! Loved this back in the day and couldn't remember the name of it but here it is
EDIT!!
and this one
Proper rave music.
what you need is some proper acid techno sunday morning in a warehouse in east london squat party tunes.....
