Altern8 @ Sonar 2007

[NippleOfNippon]

people of these days seem to forget how to rave..

fuck younger generation.

[AdidasCFC]

was you there muppet the pills where probably shit

[stoffenl]

Ppl can't dance to breakbeats anymore, their primitive reptilian brains demands a plain 4/4 kick in an empty soulless production.

[sayourprayerz]

youth of today - this is sad,standing around wantin tiesto the tranny or some covered and killed classic rave track from the past cranked up to 170bpm for them to take notice,even then they cant dance to it, all they can say is " thats bangin mate" they haven't got a clue about the music that started a culture, is now gone forever, sad. for that reason i wouldn't trade my past for the present, music now is shite, and thats everything from hip hop to rock sad. apart from the prodigy tho, lol

[EternityofNight]

This is kind of sad really, most of the crowd is all too afraid to get into the groove. They need more drugs or alcohol or something to get them loose. The DJ is far away from the crowd like their afraid of them. The light show is weak and wimpy. At 1:34 the MC looks like he is wetting his pants, what a douche.

[Teknoboi99]

ppl need to learn how to dance!! if i was there.. id show them how to boogie down!!

[12GBKT]

damn, i wish i was there.

i thought that altern8 stopped performing on live shows since 1994? are they making music again?

[adamcichocki]

This is great. Loving the dude in the mask, he knows the score. Top one. Nice one. Get sorted.

[Teknoboi99]

[Johnnybloob]

[gugasbauru]

Infiltrate 202

[glitchmunki]

How can this crowd be so friggin static?

[markolin100]

they were a bit..apart from the odd few, mostly british who remembered the tracks. This is in Spain remember...u might just get a reaction off voodoo ray.. Still everyone went mental to Outlander - Vamp. My favourite part of the festival

[yashimash1]

remember seein altern 8 way back in 90,s withe the prodigy in birmingham,all nigther,what a can remember top night,the still can knock them tunes out

[qwertla12]

altern 8 kinda rule again. why the hack the audio doesnt sync the picture? cant make a picture out of this.....

[randyj420]

Wow! didn't know they played there - A reason alone to travel to Spain - would have been hard to dance after shitting in my pants - thx 4 posting

[josh59finley]

half of these dnt no how to get da rave on.. id b stompin till i had no trainers left!!!! :) looks like pritty bangin night tho

nice vid

[allways28]

WHY THE FUCK WASNT I THERE!!!!!

[haitek]

nobody is dancing...

[3DegreeSydney]

That's a common thing now.

E.g. Recent outdoor Cut/Copy gig: Retro DayGlo Punk kids too busy being cool, standing around texting on their 'phones or having group hug sessions to bother having a proper dance. Felt like an anarchist in comparison!

Altern8 were an integral part of my 1990s soundtrack, in high school and at Uni.

Full On Mask Hysteria is one of the oft listened to classic albums in my music collection.

[nextickles]

the dude in the mask is Haysey from Blackpool - did a sterling bit of atmosphere controlling that night on jacko's shoulders - was a wicked night!

[nextickles]

i did wear the mask at the start - look at pt 1 ;)

[thunderpants]

it was proper toasty that night you'd of died in that boiler suit and mask! Ever thought about gigging Iceland? ;)

[johannesauvinem]

no masks????

[ghostface2006]

hahaha the old school heads forgot how to dance!

[thunderpants]

"rusty raving" - it's the nu-rave doncha know! :)

[allways28]

can you give me his addy too please ... cheers bud

[Pauluk33]

i found marks myspace and he replied the day after just coming back from this. awosme tunes and i wish they would reissue the album cos its only available in japan so mark tells me

[thunderpants]

can you PM me his myspazz addy - cheers!

[3DegreeSydney]

CD and vinyl would be good. Perhaps put the LP on iTunes.

Then again, you could have those silly mash-up DJ-ing types mixing the life out of the material until it was only vaguely recognisable...Hmm.

A reissue could very well have this music "rediscovered".

The whole retro thing is creeping ever closer to 90s Rave...

I think we're already up to the mid-eighties with music and fashion influences. In 6 months the kids will all be wishing they were in a Chicago House club in the Summer of '86.

[techg78]

what a party!!!!

[galonsogr]

great video! But I can't see myself :-)

[thunderpants]

that's not you in the mask is it!? ;)
