  • omg RaverX! I remember back in like '01 seeing your first vid of you dancing in front of the arcade machine...been pleasing expanded-minded people ever since! thank you Eric!

  • Comment removed

  • March 2007 my friend came up to me doing waves with his hands saying he was learning liquid and I should give it a try. I'd never danced before

    I looked 'liquid dance' and found this video.

    Five years later and every time I get on the dance floor people stop and watch, all because I saw this video and it inspired me.

    Thank you for giving me the best thing in my life mate

  • @TheSatafly Much love man,

    Check out what we are doing now! dark matter squad.com

  • @TheSatafly  Much respect :-)

  • E,what is the name of this track man?

  • @ShereKhan77 Eden Transmission - Im so high

  • That was really awesome.

  • Respect to @LPERIC since I am a friend of @Tiny1Love and the other Liquid Pop Collectives! Respect to him for putting out that Liquiding is not related to Ecstasy [unlike what the Greek Houses, the Praise Dancers, the Mimers and the Governments say about Raves].

  • @jdm9499 I know. if you find out please tell me.

  • @jdm9499 - I feel I must say again, that I mean no disrespect! Your liquid dance is incredible, ground breaking and inventive. It's amazing, especially the underground scenes from your late 90's.

  • @bakanu Nope..

    

  • @LPERIC So you dont know how to shuffle? I had a feeling it wasnt you.

  • Liquid dance + digits + wave + robot = AWESOME!!!!!

    NICE VIDEO

  • i would really enjoy one day having a dance of with you just for fun ^.^

  • The song is Im so high by eden transmission, try searching for Eden_Transmission--Im_So_High_­ED_005-Vinyl-1991-dL

  • do you give real lessons?

  • @VAB666

    Yes!

    Come check out our event Axiom!

    Google Dark Matter Squad Youtube will not let me post a link!

  • I've got the OG VHS tape of this routine, great to see it again :D

  • I'm gonna marry u!

  • OMG- It's like DEJAVU!! I saw your LP '99 video (an actual copy from you guys given to a friend of mine) back in 2000-2001 and learned A LOT of stuff from your moves! Seeing your video (when I was like 15) was how I discovered LIQUID, and have been loving it ever since. Definitely have improved, I am impressed! =-)

  • so...very...flow...

  • Which underwater camera were you using?

  • I wish Eric would focus less on his hand work and more on full body expression. He's got such good rythm that his moves match the music very well. Nobody wants to see a dancer barely move their feet while his hands look like they're playing a game of tag on acid.

  • im using this vid to learn liquid in my lightshows

  • How long did u need to learn it? ;)

  • When I first saw your arcade videos 12 years ago, I wanted to be able to move just like you!

    ...

    Not much has changed in 12 years *thumbs up*

  • Are you the same dancer as the guy from the video of a liquid dancer in a rave in March '99?

  • @MrZaach

    yup

  • @LPERIC Can you get your hands on the music set which was played back then? I'm still searching for an mp3 file of the set, but guess what... can't find one.

    Do you have any idea to search for or get it from somewhere?

  • @Wokkaiser

    The same of the song is called " Im so high" by Eden Transmission. Search on youtube you will find it.

  • @Wokkaiser I think it's oldschool psy-trance, one of the tracks is of french band Total Eclipse...very organic

  • this men is epic

  • 4:09 is trippy

  • U FU_KING SUCK!!!!.......... IM A HATER CAUSE I SUCK AT LIQUID POPING,,,, Id like to learn from you but, dont want to bite off your moves,,, id hate to be a copycat.... Id like to expand my mind and think more liquid & rippled, My habbits is, im wayyyyy too stiff......

  • whow!

  • I've loved watching you dance since I was 15!!! I'm 25 now and still can't stop watching! I LOVE YOU!!! You are the man!

  • Ace, man!

  • Incredible

  • Crossing at 1.55 just made me slap myself silly.

  • Comment removed

  • I've seen this solo a thousand times to try to learn your style, im damn good now(not like you) but i branch out more into popping stuff, anyway i have learned most of my entire liquid style off this video and as the years go by and i rewatch it i realize im steadily having all the small style breakthroughs you had and im able to watch more and more of it and understand it where originally it was just a blur. watched 1001 times and still impressive, intricate, and inspiring. liquid for life

  • crossing at 1.55 is just insane

  • what's with his facez? lol

  • been a fan for a long long time...geezus u ain't no joke!

  • This is simply superb. I've danced liquid for over 10 years and the control you display is just unmatched. I'm based in Europe and all I can say is that we have a unique dance culture back in the States.

    Choice of Eden Transmission's "I'm So High" is also perfect - very subtle and appropriate to the development of your dance moves. And that's what makes the dancing awesome - perfect combination of impressive and subtle gestures.

    Thanks. You're a big inspiration.

  • 1:56 to 2:01 was my favorite part. especially a little before 2:01 his hands look like they warp through each other

  • the shit with his fingers at the beginning is so SICK. Reminds me of like some crazy underwater deep sea creature or some shit. It's probably one of the coolest look'n moves i've ever seen

  • Man you've been, are, and will remain an icon for soundwave embodiment.

  • name of artist and song please....all i can hear is ..."im so high"

  • omfg :D he's amazing

  • Liquid Inspiration. Literally. :)

  • This is another one of the videos that made me start dancing. I will be 90 and watching this video lol. Thanks for the inspiration!

  • I stay in San Gabriel valley, but on the real liquid is a true form of expression. As for me I incorporate popping, locking and concepts of liquid(body and arm waves mainly). When i dance to EDM, Much re respect to all the practitioners of liquid. Much resect on your views- tukkerchamp, RMBMike TizzMonkey420.

    420 Fest- Fresh Anniversary.

  • Utah here, I liquid a bit. :) The Scene is meh.

  • if you really want to see the truth, check out reunions Aahz and Firestone in orlando, and Simons in Gainesville. The rest is bullshit.

  • you were 5 years old, quit trying to participate

  • Eric Your Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!! RAWR!

  • Happened on this by accident, but I loved it!

    The move at 2:00 made my brain hiccup. Awesome!

  • I do liquid all the time at LA raves and I see many people do it as well

  • Yo Eric. Dont know if you read these but thanks. Ton's of variety and inspiring stuff in here. It was really fun to watch. Now to try and learn some more and add somma that stuff too. : ) Peace.

  • I am still trying to break his flow down...

    We need this in La music scene, shuffling is played out..

  • @WarriorFootball

    Or maybne a style which combines both :D im trying this too but needs a LOT of practise... worth it tho

  • Easy. up, up, down, down, left right left right , a,b,start. Then dance for years.

  • u could always pick up old school candywalking..we call it stomping out here in the east coast

  • that was for warriorfootball =)

  • @warrior footgall...what you need in the LA music scene is the lack of gangs and fights that break out @ clubs there. I was at the Mastrodome in San B and at the Technoclub in Koreatown and fights broke out @ both places. Canc that shit and you'll be well on your way.

    Just 'feel' the music and it'll come to you. I've been doin the liquid pop and lock since '99 and still haven't got it mastered but am well on my way. Keep 'flowing' and you'll get it!

  • FUUUUCK YEEEEA SHUFFLING GOT OVERLY BURNED!

    it sucks but its true,,

    me and sum friends started doin liquid at raves and i havent seen any1 else do it yet

  • It was big back in the late 90's and early 2000's before the rave scene flatlined here in the midwest.

  • @mrCANO562 hell yea son. doin the same shit and no one has any idea what the fuck do to about it haha. fuck shuffling. keep the liquid flowing brotha. you live in southern cali?

  • actually yea i do,Downey to be exact.u? haha yeah every1 just stares buts its super dope cuz u can get really creative with it.. Goin to wonderland???

  • yea i live in Carlsbad, haha and that was my next question. yes im goin to wonderland. like i would miss Paul van Dyk haha.

    that why i stuck with liquiding even after going to my first rave and watching mass people shuffling. liquid has a lot more potential to create your own style and yea you can be a lot more creative. i use a lot of liquid and digits in my lightshows too.

    we should meet up. ive never met another liquid dancer before haha

  • forsure man im down,, i told my friends that wen we see other people that do liquid, instead of trying to battle them or show off like they do in shuffling, we should keep it koo and keep it peaceful cuz wen u dance to compete at raves it kinda kills the fun,,

  • agreed. everyones there to have an amazing ass night. I have the same philosophy just havent seen anyone do liquid except me yet haha.

  • who knows we might even find more poeple that do liquid there too,,

  • I'd love to see this at a rave...

  • 1 min 59 sec. AMAZING transition, cant figure it out. :(

  • @Neogma-Yeah...that tripped me out too! watched it a few times, like a magic trick! Always better at a rave or club, tripping balls or rolling coasters!

  • or dead sober b/c you dont get wasted anymore

  • You Rule Eric...

  • That's fuckin awesome man!

  • he makes art from simple movements

  • hahahha thats so awesome@!!!! i never see ppl dance like this ne more. fuckin cool :D

  • This is the reason I do liquid dancing...though I need my firger rolls to improve...

  • 1:57 omfg HOW??

  • if u seen that watch from 4:08 Explain that! :S his moves are unqiue Eric is Awesome :D seen most of his movies and from first movie where Total Eclipse - direct motion play's that is awesome...

  • I love your style. :)

    The musicality is better in this one than the edited one. It is nice to see your facial expressions, too.

  • haha, i love it. I been all over the world to different clubs and raves and you could always spot someone who was trying to rip eric style, his clothes his moves etc. it must be pretty cool to know you started a world wide trend. I live in australia and liquid is known everywhere now. the infamous pinball machine clip. old school.

  • yippe,

    I know what you mean. While I have the utmost eternal respect for Eric's talent, and he has inspired my liquid as well, I do not try to imitate his style. We are all different and will always have our own style. Although I think it's ok to take tidbits of his moves and add them to your own.

  • definately man definately. I dont mind "borrowing" from other too but trying to dance, move, dress and act like someone else is not cool. know what i mean? :)

  • We have this guy in DESTIN, FLORIDA and he's blowin every mutha fluffa offa the dance floor, claimin he's the best. If only this artist (eric) can inahalate him on the spot, would i be so damn exhilerated. DAMN

  • It's not a competition man, we all do it for the love.

  • beats susan boyle

  • you're the king man. here I am 7.5ish years later still looking at old lpc clips in amazement.

  • lol dude i'm in the exact same boat as you haha..still watchin one of the grandmasters lol xD

  • yeah you're right its been many yrs since i last saw the old clips.

    taiji master!

  • Yep. I feel ya. This is actually pretty old. But the style is eternal. It's so smooth. So trippy... I really can't find better words for it.

  • good vid!! Liquids cool, if not a tad repetitive....i find popping to be much more technical and entertaining. Check out my vid...tell me what you think

  • Niicee digitss

  • not bad..keep it going

  • if jesus wanted to learn liquid this is the guy hed go to... fuckin crazy good

  • this guys seriosly decent..but one question...im wonderin if theres any where around the uk any1 may know about...liquid doesnt seem too large as a scene in london so im seriosly looking to enhance my already very basic form..id apreciate if any1 knows of anywhere... but as far as this video goes...1 word...legend..makes me wanna progress so bless..

  • This dude is sick!!!!

  • One word: fantastic!

  • This is hella bomb : ) I hope I get this good some day.

  • you're liquid pop itself.

  • i love liquiddddd!!!! ur awesome eric

  • eric, where ever you dance, some kid is sittin off to the side, wishing he knew what exactly you are, liquidists kept me goin back,,,,,absolutely fascinating!

  • also you say thats this is the uncut video? then where can i find the one with all the effects put in?

  • HE RIPPED IT

  • Your digits around 2:15 is ungodly. Eric your my hero. RIP liquid scene.

  • yep, thats cooler than cool :P

  • Rip?! And why is that?

  • The scene has been dead for years. Killed by drug dealers who didn't appreciate the scene and started making bogus beans in their tub and lawmakers shutting down raves everywhere because of the newbies who couldn't enjoy a little rollin with some outstanding music and cool culture. Then the hip hop crowd started showing up and trying to rape girls and make money and the whole idea of the love everybody scene disappered. If someone stepped on your shoe it was a way to meet not fight Real talk.

  • down here in hawaii thats happening 2. some guys came into a rave and were pushing everyone aside saying they were all stupid and started crumping to the rave music. when some kids went over to tell them to get out,they pulled out a gun on him.

    it's really annoying when they just cant keep to themselvs.

  • sorry, you guys are just not looking hard enough. most places have gone underground; smaller, easier to handle parties. a few hundred, instead of a few thousand.

    its only been reborn. you want to find centers for parties? look at toronto, NW new york, NYC, arizona for cryin out loud, and california is still doin' massives. the electric daisy carnival is still kicking. ultra music festival is still going in florida. when you move on w/ life, you lose the pulse on events, and its okay; for u

  • XTC overdose

  • cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oool

  • wack

  • sick sick sick

  • absolutely 1:58 doesn't like a hand, is a water !!!! lol

  • the reason the video looked wierd is most people watched the shitty youtube and .avi video that floated around the net and it skips frames and gives it a twitching type of look to it and makes it look like special effects when all it is is missing frames.

  • lol he looks around like he stepped in shit and whiff checks his shirt and shit that was funny

  • Must feel great to be able to do it. To do and and to have people gasp as they watch you do it. : )

  • 4:22 - STEEZ MAN STEEEEEZ!

  • No one can top this guy.

  • 1:58 is the best part no questions asked

  • yes dude, 1:58 was freakin insane!

  • Woahh I havent seen anyone good at liquid dancing since the 90s!! Rave memories LOL Ur amazing:)

  • Fucking phat. Seriously.

  • 4:05 - 4:10

  • yo eric... can you check my liquid rave video if you have the time? and all you other people that know about liquid can check it out too... it should be in my profile so feel free to check

  • You should come the the World's Electronic Music Festival (WEMF)in Ontario next month. It's the last one ever... it's going to be a huge party. It'd be amazing to see you there!

  • Looks way better than the edited version.

  • the only editing on this clip i've ever seen was the audio, and you are right that it is crapy when the moves and music dont match up, and all b/c some well meaning jerk off he doesnt know what he's doing.

  • sick!!!

  • The only way I could obtain this song was through buying the original vinyl version from Ebay.

  • P.S. Sickest dancer and routine ever!!
