    This is what I call House.

    Bring back the Humpty

  • RHV  IS DA BOMB

  • Oh yeah 90-93 were the best years. I remember them very clearly. I still have most of the flyers from those years. The house parties, the raves. Every weekend was a different house party. I remember K-RAVE at Knotts in OC. New Years Eve '92. The Paw Paw Patch in '91, Grape Ape in '93. Power Tools comes on the air in April of 1992. Richard Humpty Vission, Dr Sisko, R.A.W. (the DJ not the Rapper). Renegade Radio on 96.7 in Santa Ana. Don't forget Loonatix the clothing store. The GAT store in LA.

  • Hell Yeah... when you brought up Grape Ape... it made me and my homie talk about how when we left that rave you had to pass all the cops in riot gear.... How about the thick ass fog on the way home... Trippin on acid following tail lights home.. You brought back old school memories.. Word

  • O shit, you know about Loonatix? I never have met someone else that knew of it. I thought it use to be spelled Lunatics though, it has been that long. I bought some tagging mean streaks from there in 92'.

    R.A.W. is one of my favorites!

  • 96-00 BAD INFLUENCE

  • i was in the scene 94-98 and i will always have great memories forever.but my older brother was in the scene from 90-94 and he has told me some crazy stories that i wish i was there.but music wise 90-93 harcore techno was the shiiiiitttttttt!deep house hard house tribal soulfol.i love allthat stuff to and they each had there moments.

  • 1990-1993 rave years agree big time!!!! After that, it was and will never be the same without that classic Techno, Hardcore, and early house up to 94 95. Your brother knows what's up!

    Check out my PowerTools uploads from 1992. More to come as I promised.

  • cool deal brotha!keep the movement alive!gotta educate the people let them know the way we used to do it!peace!

  • yup, i member THE DONE AT FLORENTINE GARDENS IN HOLLYWOD. USE TO GO THERE ALMOST EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT

  • I remember the Attic, Strawberry Sundays, Carnival, but all those do not compare to back in the day when he use to play at Elevation circa 1991/1992. That was the days of oldskool Hardcore, Belgium-Amsterdam-UK Classic Techno Rave. Those golden day are to brag about and Power Tools never was the same since.

  • Oh yeah, not to forget the German and Italo Techno from those best years

  • omg this shit rock i waz like 16 when this came out and purple shield d.p lol

  • Shout out to all the old skool party peeps in the rebel days, let those days forever live on in our hearts!

    PS I'm now a surgery resident which means that the party scene isnt for idiots and losers, it was a way of life, a culture, a beautiful thing...

    CLUB METRO!!! go go girls, battling, stomping your boots.

  • Heh. I went to club metro when it was about to close, they still had a dj in the 'techno' room but there were only five people there. Most of the people who went to club metro before it went down was there for industrial. :/

  • haha here are some memories for me:

    Club Carnival downtown LA

    The ARENA!! (hahah good times there)

    I grew up in the IE party scene, crews like TYO, DOGs, Crooks, Asylum, SOM, Red Zone, Rebel Alliance...wow wow wow!!! memories!!!! My eyebrows...plucked. My jeans....old ass 501's that were 8 sizes too big with a big ass harley davidson belt buckle that i shoplifted from melrose. Razor edge fades friday afternoon so that im ready for the weekend.
