change in partie attitudes?

[The Overfiend]

i drink at parties.....not because i have to be drunk to enjoy the music...its because i love beer, and adding 2 things i love in one night kicks ass

techno+beer=fun

It's cause you got chipotle on the brain guey.

[Miromiric]

techno+beer+sausages and greasy barbeque=fun

Hi to everyone by the way. I think drugs and dance music in general are part and parcel with eachother. Fair enough u can go out and listen to techno and not do any drugs and still have a good time or even an amazing time (if the music is quality) but u also can have sex with a condom (which is safer) but without is much better. This scene was built on music and drugs and i feel if it is to carry on and improve drugs still need to be a big part of it. From the people i have met and people i know i have gatherd that people feel that the dance scene has become bigger and better beacuse of more people coming into the scene and because it is more wide spread than it used to be, but imo all this has done has diluted the scene and definately diluted the quality of the drugs in it.

For those Bill Hicks fans out there u will recall in most of his performances he refers to the Beetles and other bands of that time and the great music they produced because of the influence of drugs and that nowadays most of the music is uninspired due to the lack of drug taking by these so called government approved bands who are against drugs. Im worried that the way things are going with dance music becoming more wide spread and more generally accepted or tolerated theres going to be a load of djs/producers out there who are making and mixing music without ever taking drugs and not fully appreciating what the dance scene is about and making crap music but thats just my opinion.

Some of you may say that the dance scene is not all about drugs and i agree but like i said if the foundations of dance music was part built on drugs and you take those foundations away its gonna fall.

I havnt taking drugs since i was 18 yrs old not even a single spliff, however i have experienced the dance scene on drugs and i feel if i didnt i wouldnt have the same appreciation for it as i do now. I can go out sober as a judge and not even drink and if the music is good il be dancing till the end. A bit contradictory u might think seeing as im for drugs and dance music but my point is without drugs i wouldnt have the appreciation i do.

Somebody said when they make tracks they make it with people drinking alcohol in mind. Im sorry but i cant understand that if its dance music and especially techno that is being created . Every track i make i make it thinking how is this going to sound on a big fat ass system to people off it on drugs and how high are people gonna go when listening to it. If i thought how will my tracks sound to people drinking alcohol and started making a track that i think people would like when drunk id probably start knocking out something that resembles an abba greatest hits cd im sorry but thats just my opinion.

People-Drugs-Dance music-Higher levels of consciousness-No boundaries

imo it shouldnt be any simpler or complex than that.

I think people are taking less drugs because the drugs are not as good as they used to be and dont want to waste anymore brain cells on shit stuff. Thats in some way why i stopped taking drugs (and the fact i realised i no longer needed them:)).


Did i answer the question???

Good post.
Agreed - If I hadn't done stuff when younger, I'd feel very differently about the scene now.

Drugs get young people into the scene, who then grow out of the drugs and more into the music. Every scene needs young blood. Techno is no different. Take away the drugs and you take away an entry point for youth.

[audioinjection]

yeah thats how the rave scene here in L.A. got so popular was because of the extacy......it brought alot of youth into the electronic scene, and i guess the older they got they either stuck around or are listening to 50 cent now

I think I said that already.

People need good droogs though, and most of the crap punted out by the gangsters is pure shite these days.
We need a new drug revolution.
A new summer of love.
We need some mad scientist to develop something new for the kids.

spot on.

i wasnt going to say what i thought coz last time i got slated for saying techno is drug music :lol:

but for dance music to move forward we need new drugs. sounds sad but its bloody true. people are bored with the shite thats about at the moment.

cast your mind back (those old enough) to mid 90's, the whole scene was getting pretty dull. then what bam..some decent pills came out and re invented the whole thing and trance went massive.

mitsibishis saved clubbing then.
we need some propper shit on the scene now before it all goes tits up.

some new designer drug that actually gets people buzzin again...coz lets face it.theres no atmosphere at the majority of techno nights anymore

[BloodStar]

techno=drugs,. if there would be no drugs , probably there wold be no techno and maybe also music, as i think Mozart was heavily on coke.. heh.
if there would be just djs and producers or people not on drugs, there would be no atmosphere on party. kids needs drugs or they will not come,.
good drugs, good party, bad drugs, bad party,.

personally when i go out, i want to have fun first, hanging out and talking with my friends,. as i really love good beer,, i can drinkin it all night. Pilsner or Budvar rules,,thats for sure.. also loving loud techno music, as it can be very hypnotizing even without drugs,.

im well up for that, drugs ahve bn getting shitter and shitter for a long time, evn mdma crystals dont seem to be at the same standard any more.

any scientists on boa?, any free time to create something new for us party ppl?

[Technobitch]

saying that give me a sunny day and an outdoor party and im a happy girl regardless of the drugs!

[oldbugger]

[, evn mdma crystals dont seem to be at the same standard any more.

nothing to do with how much you have taken over the years?

pure mdma cant get shit.. we just get a tollerance ;)

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :cheese: yeah no doubt that has a great deal to do with! bigger bag next time then ;)

so does that mean then that drugs havent got shitter its just that we have been taking them for a long time and they dont work anymore and so the change in the party scene (if there is one) is that we have hammered too much drugs and so for some ppl it just dnt feel the same anymore when really its them that has changed and not the scene? ;)

[eyeswithoutaface]

[oldbugger]
