Okay if you like LA parties and Super8 & Tab, then check out this video!!! It's a rough cut scene from my upcoming documentary on Electric Daisy Carnival and the recent changes that have gone on in the LA massive scene. Includes footage from AVB, Tritonal, Gareth Emery, Cosmic Gate, and Above & Beyond performances.
Interviews with peeps who travel from all over the country for LA parties |

The overall question is ridiculous. It's simply where the big massives are. Outside of Ultra, until recently didn't have HUGE massives like you had until the last few years, most of the big massives occured in California, most in SoCal. Duh. Yes, there were others, but the big ones have been here. And it's not like they are all new. Why did it suddenly start attracting people the last few years? The weather? When has that changed. The space? Hasn't really changed either. It's just there's more massive events, withfar more intense promotion. Plus there's the INTERNET.
There was a big scene back in the late 90s, too. And it could've gotten massive like it is now in SoCal if the local authorities didn't suppress the ability to have them after a couple incidents...then the dot-bomb occured as soon as things were recovering from that (didn't TAO '99 or 2000 have like 100,000+ people. When it was in the Coliseum.)
BTW, this isn't really a documentary. This is more like a highlight piece with comments or brief interviews throughout. What is it documenting? Nothing really, unless there's larger frame to this picture. But the style of this video makes me think there really isn't. In the end, it should essentially be a historical record on video. This video is not as it is.
BTW, while some obviously have a blast, most people I know who come to these things from outside the west coast do leave liking the event, but are blown away by how e-tarted the crowd is. Especially when e-puddles were an epidemic. |

And what is your definition of a documentary? This isn't the whole piece. It's just a rough cut of one scene out of many that will be in the final film. Here's the link to the official trailer.

LOL it's definitely not a promo for In$omniac. No promoters would even talk to me for this film cuz it's covering such a controversial topics (full trailer below).
Besides, I think the opinions of the attendees are far more important than the promoters. They're the ones spending money and traveling to experience the events in LA. They make the scene what it is.
