I was a late bloomer. I waited until 2002. Ferry @ The Mayan.

Was heavily into the music since '99 though. What a great year to start. ;]

oh yeah, I'd been listening to EDM for several years before Delta Heavy, that was just the first opportunity I had to hear it played out and loud.

first experience to edm: used to listen to some euro-dance stuff popular in the 90's from bootlegged cds from the asian garden mall if that counts. but really got into it when... i'll admit it, remember the happy2bhardcore series? yeah, part 3. that was classic.

first rave: first one at that rave at palace park in irvine in 2000. 16 yrs old. i remember hearing better off alone dumonde remix and i was amazed lol. and the jungle room tripped me the f' out. not too long after, went to the good ol masterdome. i think paul-e or thee-o or someone was playing in the main room. ended in a big fight involving asian gangsters and the group i came with. i still remember the lights turning on and the dj announcing "some idiots had to ruin the night for us. why cant we keep the peace love and happiness here." our bad lol

first edm clubbing (21+): ferry corsten in avalon, in march last year. i think. when he had that residency at avalon for a bit.

First EDM Tracks ever heard: KLF- What Time Is Love? and 3 a.m. Eternal, Veracocha - Carte Blanche, on Armin Van Buurens ASOT #3, and BT's - Flaming June. Cathy Dennis Remixes and Art of Noise. (people are prolly like wtf.. lol

Tuned into EDM from collecting music since 84, as a kid growing up, I collected Movie Soundtracks and scores, and listened to Freestyle for a number of years like Stevie B and Buffy.

First Rave Cassette Tape (yes Cassette)given to me was fom Dyloot, a Red Cassette with SKILLS printed on it. If I recall the first track he opened his set with was PVD - For an Angel.


ok, I'm showing my age as well when I can say my first rave was around I wanna say 92/93. The name of the first one I cant remember but I'll throw out the names of the parties from back then...Toe Jamm and Old MacDonalds Rave are the only ones coming to mind right now.

Do you remember the song that was hardcore-ish with the Sesame Street beat? How about SpeedRacer one? I know the Sesame Street one goes back to atleast the year 92 as that was the year I turned 21(now you do the math).

I had a cassette set(haha) that we bought at some party. One was blue and one was green. Again, my memory has failed as to who it was.

I just totally dated myself but I dont care. I am YOUNG at heart!!

Be Cool!

Well, I had been clubbing locally in Savannah, GA starting in 2000ish on the local breaks and house scene...but i really had no idea what any of it was nor was i pursuing it all that much...just something to do on a sat night...lol

BUT... my awakening to the true power of EDM was at an outdoor rave called Sommersafari at Airfield Gross Dolln, outside of Berlin, when I saw PVD for the first time in 2001 on the Out there and Back tour... after that night, I was never the same


Posted by DjWoody on Mar-08-2007 05:04:

OMG!!! Silvia! That was when I got into the scene too. Heck, I still have all those song on my vinyl collection somewhere. Remember DOMINATOR? Poing? Dildo? T99- Anasthesia? Hahaha Those were the good old days. I used to love STREET BEAT Magazine too. They were the shits! Oh and URB when it was all about underground raves. Hahaha

Hehehe Heck, now you made me wanna make an old school mix! Hahahaha I have to dust my vinyls, and I might just do it!



Posted by djjoshuaallen on Mar-08-2007 06:19:

My first Rave was a NYE event at NOS called ENCORE 1996/97'
dont really remember much about the lineup or anything, but i remember i had some bomb ass liquid

first club was the week after I turned 21 I saw Judge Jules at the Palace.

the party that really got me hooked was NATION in downtown LA summer of 2000...what a great fuckin party that was.

going to ibiza in '04 after watching the episode of "top 10 party cities" on Wild On E!

of course ibiza got #1

first club went to was manumission night of privilege, second amnesia (foam night = bad), and then space! had no clue of what dj's i saw...but it was good


Posted by Techno_Twins on Mar-08-2007 08:17:

We love you EDM!!!!!

Good question damn can't even remember. I do remember the moment when I knew that this is it, there's nothing else I want to listen to. I remember walking into 1015 when we were 21 or 22 & the lasers were beaming all over the place, it was packed, the music was awesome & everyone around me was smiling. I was like damn where have you been at? Even though we had listened to dance music for a while before went to undergrounds & so on, that was the moment that I fell in love & have been since.

EDM is all we listen to..true to the very core! You'll never catch us listening to anything else in our car, home or any other place for that matter.
I am captivated by this concealed yet acclaimed music.

Ya thats the 99 one I think. I rememeber complaining because the ticket prices, and that tranceroom being so godawful hot. I stayed in front of the fan blowing in the middle of the room with a bunch of ravers sitting on the floor.

Anyone have any pics of past events and stuff???

I have loved the music since about 99/00 but didn't make it to my first party until Monster Massive 2001, with SweetCandy Girl. It was definitely an awesome experience.
