  • GET SORTED!! THIS IS THE SOUND OF ALTERN-8!!! (Chris Peat, Mark Archer)

  • Big up Stafford...

  • Bet Ricky Gervais stole some moves from that dancer.

  • Comment removed

  • DY ANTWOORD

  • Fuckin stupidly good!

  • I like that dancer blokes spirit, but lets face it, he looks a cunt.

  • @1FineYoungCannibal precisely why the rave scene died...cos of shithouse cunts like you who think judging how others dance is ok. Back then was better because it was devoid of your type.

  • @hypercatjohn The rave scene was a victim of its own success, It was never going to stay underground forever was it? The likes of Altern8 going on Top Of The Pops didn't either help did it?

  • @hypercatjohn Back then raviing was purely about raving. You didn't show off what you were wearing, no one gave a fuck what anyone was wearing. No one went to pull it was purely about the music and that was that. Simple, chemically enhanced vibes. Aaaahhhh those were the days!!! :)

  • @RealTalkerMan What were the girly perms for then?looked good though,mwah!

  • @RealTalkerMan Chemically enchanced vibes for the fucking win ugh...the fucking things id do to go back to the 90's its horrible this day and age its fucking bollox now dodgy drugs dodgy people...No love anymore man....

  • @hypercatjohn wtf are y ou on? It was because of music styles, and the changes in musical styles and the various version of rave being made. How others dance? hahahahahahahhahahahahah. @ you being thick.

  • @MinistryOfSoundOldsk The fuck're you talking about you utter nonce. I was simply stating that back then it was a lot more care free...image is king now, it stops people from properly letting go. It's massively ironic that you've commented, actually. considering you claim Ministry of sound had a 'purpose' back in the day. It's only purpose was the money mate, everyone knew that, that's why it died on its arse and became the laughing stock of the house community...

  • @hypercatjohn Lolz at hypercatjohn, being totally thick. Lolz at that.

    Who here is talking about the MoS? not me, im talking about how Rave died. Rave and MOS are completely different. The sounds played were different.

    Jungle, hardcore, yada yada yada, the styles that killed off rave.

    And of course Mix Mag in around 92/93 telling Prodigy to get its act together.

    Which it did with Glited album, and later on Fat Of The Land.

  • No amount of mix CD's by MAW will ever change that, that's the sound of MAW....not the vibe that went down at Ministry.

  • @hypercatjohn Whos talking about MAW or the Ministry, fucked up cunt.

    Were talking about Rave and how it died. Lolz at you being a div thick cunt.

    Unreal.

  • @hypercatjohn exactly, it wasnt a fucking fashion show right, we were stomping around in the mud half the time no one gave a shit....that WAS the look, the "i don't give a shit" look!!

  • @hypercatjohn the rave scene died cos they won so nothing to rave on about now, they made them illegal if i remmeber correctly with the agenda that we all inject our eye balls with heroin ,snort coke,take 20 Es and shove poppers up our ass's 24/7 and it worked made everyone get drunk & jump into the box so they can all get a turn at being taxed and told what to wear. & do, the military took care of the rest went in and shot them all and those left killed each other over a amen break, true story

  • i was alright with the cheesy shirts least we didnt have to wear ties , but banning smoking killed it for me :S back to the outside world me thinks, was getting cramp anyway heh

  • @1FineYoungCannibal better to look like a cunt, then to actually be one.

  • @TheHexeract hahaha, I made that comment ages ago and I'm still getting grief for it. I was only joking.

  • 1:47-1:52 Wicked Glitch!

  • KRAFTWERK interference!! at 1:47

  • YEESSSS!!!

  • damn the song is so cool in 1992 i was 2 years.

  • OMG i remember buying this on 'cassette' in woolworths - tune!

  • love this 12 when blasted this out ! 31 now love it still !

  • @MrPagey33 - S&F£ R&V£R

  • does it not sound like Steve Aoki ripped this off in his song Warp w/ The Bloody Beetroots?

  • @DestroyR0Senses

    yeah he had this rave synthesizer Altern8 play @ the beginning of the video^^ but i can understand it coz it sounds just awesome :) I use it too in my tracks^^

  • @DestroyR0Senses Yes. This is hoover bass or Dominator bass (from Genesis VST plugin)

  • Top tune

  • got this tune on an "old skool"compilation cd, love altern8 ..... always wanted the mask and gloves....does any1 know if theyre still about/making music?

  • @MrTeejaysingh Yeah mate, Mark Archer still does DJ sets as Altern 8. Top One Nice One Get Sorted! :)

  • This reminds me of being cained to fucking bits.

  • Back in the day I thought Altern 8 were shit, but now that I look back I wish I could live those days again and do things differently... Altern 8 are just one of those things.

  • @shtookatz Altern-8 *were* shit.  Quite cheerfully unselfconsciously crap. That's the best thing about them. It was all a bit shit, badly-done and hastily thrown together back then, and the music was all the better for it compared to the overproduced baby food mush smeared all over the charts today.

  • Fucking love this. x

  • mark archer from altern8 is playing at the source, hare and hounds pub, kings heath , birmingham, tonight april 1st along with frank de wulf and glenn aston 9pm -3am get on it!

  • Altern 8 - absolutely awesome. Play it loud as hell. Still can't freakin' beat there tunes.

  • Brings back memories!

    I used to love Altern 8 and.... Bomb the Bass

  • I'm 35 now I loved this song have this song on viynal I just rem.. I was like 14 when this song came out reminds of the real raves back in the days only have memories so glad to live those days

  • 1:48 -- Whoa, what was that? That was unexpected. I love it.

  • @coolme08 Actually, what WAS that? I mean, I look at the MTV logo, and it shouldn't be glitching up.

  • Comment removed

  • @MrAdeyb i still got a 16v gti--and this is still played regular--sound system has been replaced since them days tho :)

  • @MrAdeyb ... iknow why!!!!

  • one of the all time, unheard of tunes....

  • then MTV was really a music television, nowadays is all about fame, celebrities and shit music...

  • Love the Boglin Introducing the Band at the start of the Video.

  • choooooooon

  • Ripping the shit out of Derrick May yeah.

  • @djmigueluk and the rest mate but didn we all???

  • @entrokid yeah, there was a lot of ripping off going on back then for sure. I suppose synths and drum machines were expensive though eh!

  • These 2 guys have become knobheads since those good ol days anyone know why they paranoid all of a sudden?

  • I was in the studio when we recorded the vocals for this. I have a version of it called Ejacul8 which we recorded for fun. I could put it up for you but only if Mark Archer and Chris Peet give me permission. It is very funny."

  • @MrErnieball1 Yes please !!!!!

  • @MrErnieball1 Please do! I'd love that!

  • @BooksMusicMe17 Only If I get the permision from Mark And Chris. Even though they used to tie me to chairs and wheel me out onto the street outside Stafford Jail. I respect their musical property.

  • @MrErnieball1 problem is ernie the state of affairs of their relationship and getting them both to agree on anything as im sure you know.....always wondered who the poor tied up fucker was lol

  • Altern8 is fantastic

  • Actually went out with my mate Jim and bought matching NBC suits when we were 16 - not the most comfortable club wear with charcoal linings :)

  • Much as I like Bez from Happy Mondays, the guy in this vid is a far better dancer- reminds me of times when I could dance like that!

  • bad boy tune

  • highly underrated producers.....

  • this is from when MTV actually played music ...

  • @jetcarman Right geeza!.

  • @jetcarman "This is when MTV actually played heterosexual music" FYP :)

  • It's sad to think there are kids who watch MTV today who don't know they used to show videos....

  • @jetcarman i was just thinkin that:)

  • So far, 13 people have proven to be DEAF.

    I'm loving this tune, it's so awesome. And, this black chick is cute! :)

  • There hasnt been a new sound in music since the late 90's. Fuck me, at least in the 80's we had old school electro and breakin, during the nineties we had raving - since 2000 we havent had shit.

  • Hey!, Who remembers the music being from the Midnight Club Street Racing Intro?

    (Without singing)

  • I NEED THAT FEELINGGGG!!

  • faikin madness!!!

  • Is this a wind up? The video's budget was probably about £3.50

  • @KINGofALLtheMERCIANS . Are you trying to Infuri8? All rave tracks had very low budget vids. Even now.

    They weren't really about to throw a huge ammount of money at 2 wreck heads from Stoke anyhow.

  • how could they make a song that sounds exacly like being ouvit on e's if being being ouvit had a sound..... genius

  • @paulymac90 I remember reading an interview with Altern8 around the time of this track and they said they popped a cheeky half before making music so could hear the tune as others would when it was played.

  • 12 ppl missed the like... 

  • i can remembere them shooting this video at sandon road motors in stafford and round the town by the high house.best days of my youth.top one nice one get sorted.

  • i cant believe mtv used to play good shit like this

  • @Mr1974gjb scene not sean. Sean is a name. This was 1992, they had been going for about 4 years at this point, with Nexus 21, so ALtern8 were really there from the beginning, it just took so much money to get noticed that by the time they made it people thought they were baand wagon jumpers. Infact they were true pioneers over here. Their better stuff were all the remixes on the singles. Love that much more than this stuff. Check out my message to you.

  • Holy crap I'm from the US and I'm offended at the "chav" references to this music. This IS your fathers techno bitches, what helped start it all, so f off if you don't understand it.

  • yeah ravers unite!!! keep the faith!!

  • chicken dance ]

  • thats PP Arnold singing..

  • Smoked a spliff with chris P and mark A during a gig they did in 91, dint realise who they were till the joint come back round and the pulled up their hoods and put on the masks before takin to the stage! Surreal

  • Good Times!!!!!!!!....AHHHH LOVIT!!!!! Rave then was Awesome....now the shitty Chav's are tryin to steal it....Blue Monkey! Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Gunner Foreskin 91 whateva...ur a ignorant TIT!!!!

  • nobody is allowed to sample "strings of life"!

  • @corelgott Hey, EVERYONE sampled it back in the day - if you were an aspiring act and wanted to put a killer track together and get it played some, you sampled Derrick! :) And A8 ruled like no others; some thought they were cynical piss-takers, others thought they were sell-outs, band-wagoneers or even cheap imitators but they were NONE of these things...they were just ploughing their own amazing furrow. And I miss those days like I miss the sun in Winter.

  • what a tune ]]

  • Takes me back in time when I listen to stuff like this
