[lawrencek89]

Was there that night when that northern mug came out with that shit, remember half the crowd fucked off to the raindance tent. Twat was lucky not to have been lynched,

it was prick's with attitude like his that killed that scene!

[tezmccarthy]

Was the first big ass rave I was at and in the tent when these boys came on...head spinning body shaking mad as fuck event with Prodigy giving my brain something it had never experienced before! take me back!!

Top Buzz the best!!!!!!!!!!!

[blakjakblakjak]

Walk down memory lane. I actually organised this party with Raindance! I used to be the Head promoter, monthly nights in Leicester and sometimes Birmingham and Coventry, started in 88. We had Sasha, Top Buzz, Carl Cox, even Judge Jules, before they were famous.

I burnt through any profits from raves pretty quickly. This was the last big one for me and I quit UK in 92.

That time was the last great underground youth movement, the last punk rock. My old partner in crime, DJ SS, is still around.

[kenboon6969]

I slighty disagree, the death was after Amnesia Wedding, that was THE final underground movement of the scene, everything after that was full of what we call nowadays 'chavs'.

Sdaly miss the underground atmosphere and scene.

Thank god for sites like this keeping the memories alive!!

[shelfsider77]

the buzz will give you pleeasure

[sam3317]

[djad54]

[magicktorch]

That is 'The Energizer EP' by Dave Charlesworth. One of my all time faves.

[djad54]

ok so i need this set really badly!! can anyone sort me out.. i didnt get into the whole hardcore thing till 93 then by the end of 94 it was stupidly cheesy (thanks hixxy!) after that got into dnb.. This sounds awesome.

[FranticLes]

If my memory serves this was held just outside Melton Mowbray, and two giant searchlights shone up into the sky to guide you in....

Learn to fly ....... with the Top Buzz

[DOOGULS123]

@FranticLes yes i think your right i was buzzin when we saw them wicked night

[londondave91]

The funniest about that night was bumping into my college mate who was there with Top Buzz ...just standing there looking at the weird lights on the top of the tent ....awesome ...quadrophonic sound system was awesome ...one minute dancing to nothing and then feeling the bass hitting you ...great night ...apart from the stupid coaches from Stratford !!

[matsonit]

Cool upload!!!! P Oldscool Fool : )

[leahnjoe]

t.o.p b.u now double up the z and it will make you feel great

[carl271sheep]

i was a dancer at this in the head tent with my pal stibby, any one remember at the end of the night the dj remixed your love?

[Dixiecat07]

1991 was my year- aged 18/19 and a proper little raver .. It makes me wanna cry when I hear all those sweet pianos, vocals and thumping bass all over again. What a special, magical time we had.

[LIVERNIL723]

I know what you mean my friend, I cried a whle ago when I was listeningto a tune from 808 state.

[titchbarn]

how u feelin, how u fuckin feelin.

[bassmasterflex]

[waynele3]

[bassmasterflex]

[toejamm89]

it was a circus tent and i was climing up one of the poles and mad p told me to get down

[darkhelmit1234]

wot is the first tune called? pleeeeze been tryin to find out for 15 years

[coffeeshopping]

If it's the piano tune, it's....(drum roll)

'Dance the Dream' - Desired State.

[flickdatbean]

does anyone have the dj sy and dynamo set from this rave?it was the best ever...and hardcore mc was incredible on this set.

[coffeeshopping]

6:00 = E n e r g i z e r. A monster tune.

Dayumm! I love the hardcore.

Such good days. Ah well...(sniff)

[GONG1971]

giz a shout if you want this on disc,this nite was the buzz in top form,best set ever

[honeynutnut]

Anyone know the name of the tune at 5:55?

[cheesyquaver]

Simply one of the best mixtapes ive ever heard - even if its practically a carbon copy of their Fantazia set, its got a wicked intro and kicks off with Dance the Dream. Awesomeness.

[vegunited06]

he keeps shouting, "get down" but from where? speaker rig i guess ???

[becca27inaus]

yep, the speaker box prob, they used to get psd at people sitting on them, feedback and all that

[FranticLes]

@vegunited06 ... the venue had two giant (supposedly heated) bigtop tents ... around the bottom of the rigging support poles they had wrapped boards and some people had climbed on top of the boards and begun shinning up the poles... (quite how I remember this in such detail remains a mystery)

[bal0nostik]

anyone got the formation tune.. big bad head with mad p's sample innit from this ??

[LIVERNIL723]

Maximum respect to my mates in Rushey Mead School circa 1991/92 - you know who who are - our generation rules!!!

[kallikov]

I couldnt of said it better myself.

respect mad p.

[robbooldskool]

the buzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[kenboon6969]

Midlanders - awesome, The Buzz obviously loved the Eclipse in Coventry!!

[kenboon6969]

Does anyone know how I can get in contact with DJ Excel who played directly after Carl Cox??? from Manchers he was - friends with Vinny, Shaun and Dave, we used to go to Lutterworth to chill out and get monged!!
