Anyone keen to check out some of Dione's tunes, think: Come Here And Die, Born To Raise Hell, The Way Is Shut, Deluge, Pain Til I Die, Just Kickin' Ass, Out With The Quickness and one of my personal fav's, War Against The Machines. He's also done some brilliant remixes of some classic tunes, such as Skullcrack by Dj D and The Underground Stream by Nosferatu.

Also, some of his tunes under his industrial alias on DNA as E-Noid: DNA Theory(opened my last cd, Judas Kiss, with this, for those that got a copy), Tiny Sparks Of Air, Aggressive Behaviour, Liquid Super D, Antichrist and Intergalactic Spacyness.

Well, thats 10 years ago guys, get wtih the times! Wise up!


Anyhow, good to hear theres jailbait running around and getting into hte freeform madness!

Really, nothing for me will be as big as the hard house movement in 2002-3, awesome era. Goddamnit, why turn this into, oh jesus, the good old days. Whats done is done, and Friday to me, was a resounding success. It proves rave is not fucking dead, it just comes in moderation!

Perhaps the young guns should "wise up" and create what we had 10 years ago maybe even 15 rather than sit back and do fuck all about the scene.

but its not as easy to do (sucessfully) as it was 10-15 years ago...

here's a couple points (with input from a mate of mine too)

1 - Ppl these days have less money and more choices. Where as 10 / 15 years ago ppl didn’t spent money on ipods, dvd recorders, flatscreens for every room of the house. Dishwashers, multiple pc's, laptops, multiple cars. Consoles, games. Digital slr cameras. More things ppl want. Also mortgages and inflation going higher then wage raise. LESS MONEY IN PPLS POCKET = LESS PUNTERS.

2 - Governments recent crackdown In the past few years on substances. We are getting skassed hardcore in this case. Ppl would rather not go out now then have to worry about taxi's or buses just to get places. We have terrible public transport and no one can be arsed with this. And then taxis = more money that ppl cant part with. This is the most recent nail in the rave/clubbing scene definitely. GOVERNMENT CRACKDOWN. also, because of this, there is a big drought atm in adelaide in terms of substances, and despite what anyone says, clubbing/parties and substances use go hand in hand, if one suffers the other suffers too. lack of substances/poor quality/higher prices = less punters going out. this is evident atm in many clubs in adelaide atm

Now we are getting to the stage where adelaide cant afford to/hesitates in bringing over headline hard dance dj's. Only the electro scene is thriving and the turn towards all day summer park parties which cuts out the travelling element and gains a more commercial crowd which they need to be profitable.

another point worth noting as to reasons why the scene is so much "worse" now then it was 10/15 years ago is that over that time electronic music has advanced a huge amount. now there are so many more genres, so the dance punters are even more spread out.

also any one can produce a track these days with all these do it yourself software applications out there, which leads to the market being saturatated with below quality productions... or basically... more junk to get through to find quality tunes/productions.

thats why freeform kicks ass... cuz it draws openminded people from trancey, hardcore and dnb crowds

theres no reason why ya can't have conflicting genres either imho... eg... if done properly a dnb/hardcore show would fuckin kick ass (and by hardcore I mean Freeform/UKHard/Nu-Rave aswell as maybe a little bit of dutch (for some fuckin stupid reason everyone in Adelaide instantly associates hardcore with noise.. Dutch hardcore isn't the only kind of hardcore and I'd even go as far as saying that UK hardcore and freeform is more popular in Adelaide!!

yeh for sure theres heaps of shite music around... but you could also argue that production skills/software have improved massively over the last 10 years so the best tunes are even better than they were!

As anyone who buys tunes would know, the bigger a style is, the more shite there is to listen thru to find gold... but more crap tunes would never even be an issue if dj's who play crap tunes weren't booked!!

Nah not a newb question at all. Its a good question and good to see someone has actually asked it rather than bitch and moan.

Having said that how long have ya got Basically its about revving ya crews up to go out. Not be jaded or judgmental. Enjoy the people and the "family" around you and create fond memories. Create yourselves a past. You can see us old fuckers have awesome memories of the past and keep talking about them. I hate feeling as if you youngens wont have that same thing or have a lessor thing than what we had in ten years time. Also if your gunna go out and get on it do it smart. Dont be a hero and end up in jail or in hospital. It tarnishes and draws attention to the scene that all the promoters and club owners work hard to create for everyone and themselves. Anyways I could go on all day but hey when your young you usually follow the crowd and the crowd at the moment isnt in SA

I agree with you maybe a bit for point 1 Harry. But think of this. When I was a kid I had a bmx, skate board, went fishing, shooting, was a member at many sports associations and so. Do you have all this and pay for it today?

Your second point is just silly.

Dont be a hero and end up in jail or in hospital. It tarnishes and draws attention to the scene that all the promoters and club owners work hard to create for everyone and themselves. Anyways I could go on all day but hey when your young you usually follow the crowd and the crowd at the moment isnt in SA .


Cheers why bother be negative and bitch and moan about something that i love. From when i was really young i loved my dance and over time i have really got into the hardcore, freeform.

I can tell ya now that i have a great group of mates and we enjoy the time we have out raving, this for me is the one place where i can actually be free from all the stress and shit in my life. We look after each other, i mean whats the point if your gonna go just to fuck it up and end up in hospital or jail.

I know that it may be hard to see it but i believe that it will come again

Well, its all too easy to say, the good old days. Honestly, who knows, some people might be living the good old days, and we don't relise it. You take what you can get and, last Friday was proof that new people were into the scene and loving it.

I do agree on some points, like, nothing, for me, will replace the St Pauls days, where there was NO scaffolding on stage, and people taking a rest on the steps just before the tables supporting the decks. On another point, its hardly a good way to get people into the promoting act when you all have a whinge about how it was and how it is now. I mean, I think people always do think of putting on their own shows, but then they look around and then see seasoned promoters going 'no fucking way' rather then, 'this is how we should do it'. I relise it is hard to be postitive at the moment, but it to be positive is the way forward.

*hi 5!!*

with more people like you coming into the scene it'll be back for sure!!


It's easy enough for people to go on about how it was better years ago, but as AV said, if people don't support the shows then eventually promoters won't bother....

Obviously the new smoking laws don't help.. but if someone is not going to see some crazy DJ cuz they can't smoke then they should get patches

I'm kinda curious what kinda things people want to make them get excited about going to parties again... (positive feedback, not bagging stuff!! )

As bias an opinion as it is, I've found that in my short time of goin out that parties like Freeformation, Hard Evolution and Destruction have such a good party vibe and are always heaps fun... so if there was more hardcore/freeform played out that'd make me wanna go every time!!
And as I mentioned in an earlier post... some hard techy dnb @ a hardcore party would top it off!!.. oh.. and psytrance!!!

Has Adelaide ever had an 'underground' rave scene like Sydney?

Or has it always been 18+?
