Crowbar/CS gas retribution at Venom rave Thread on SJ for full story:

sounds pretty dark tbh:
Quote:
i think alot of you are not grasping the situation properly. cops wernt the problem this time, and it wasnt a few hard chavs. it was a gang from acton taking revenge for some stuff that happend to one of their boys last week at synthesis in battersea. i was beaten mugged and pepper sprayed, a girl phoning an ambulance for me was beaten, i had a knife pulled on me twice, and ofcorse we all had to deal with cs gas. the security did all they could but were quickly blinded and rushed. I saw two of the Acton boys telling an ambulance they wernt needed, so medical attention did not come as needed. a girl was rushed to hospital after her skull was fractured by a crowbar. her mates rib wasbroken. one of my best friends was bricked in the head. please dont insult the people who were there by saying "ahh man, the cops are meanies they took my drugs" because it goes deeper than that. i just hope this heat comes off of our precious scene before it goes the way of the tekno parties of old. im terrified to go to acid monkey but i wont let those cunts destroy what i love, so im getting back out there.
somethin to do with the organiser pissing off people, but the punters got the payback.
24 – 7 -2010 Milton Keynes Forest Party Wow, this party was amazing!! Not sure it was due to the acid, or whether this party was actually so amazing!!! Wicked tunes for the 1st half of the night, wasnt feeling it too much towards the end but im sure other people were. Wicked vibes goin on!!
And ive got a question, what was the genre of music, or sub genre that was being played at this party alot of the time, it was like a blend between drum & bass, like remixes of well known dnb tunes, some if it was at the actual speed it of the original, but then it was slowed down and sped up, blended in and out of techno/hard trance kind of beats. I loved it it had me raving hard, i have very little knowledge of hard trance/techno but am a big drum and bass head.
If someone could enlighten me i would very much appreciate it!
Thanks alot, out to anyone who went to the party it was one of the best ive been to.

4,000 at illegal rave, officer hurt A police officer was injured after being called to an illegal rave in a field involving 4,000 people
A police officer was injured after being called to an illegal rave in a field involving 4,000 people, police said.
Wiltshire police were called on Saturday night to farmland near Warminster, in Wiltshire, where ravers had set up sound stages.
Officers were deployed throughout the night to clear the site of up to 4,000 ravers in what is thought to be the biggest rave the force has had to deal with.
A 46-year-old male officer was hit by a car at the site, off the B390 between Knook and Chitterne, and suffered a suspected fractured ankle. He was taken to Salisbury District Hospital where he will undergo surgery.
Police have warned members of the public to avoid the area as hundreds of cars have been left by the side of the road causing congestion. Spokesman for the force, Steve Coxhead, said raves normally attract several hundred people rather than thousands.
"Such events take no account of the safety of those who attend or the inconvenience caused to local communities or the travelling public on which they can have a substantial impact especially over a bank holiday weekend," he said.
"Many of those attending the rave have simply abandoned their vehicles on the side of the road which has caused local traffic disruption with traffic diversions being put in place at Heytesbury, Codford, Chitterne, Tilshead and Shrewton. The public are asked to stay away from the area and regrettably the disruption is expected to continue for some hours to come."
Mr Coxhead added: "We want to advise anyone still thinking of attending that they should not do so.
"If they ignore this advice they should be aware that all vehicle access routes are closed and should they abandon their vehicles then they risk being towed away and impounded.
"Our priority is one of safety to all concerned, and to restore normality to the local community whose bank holiday activities have been and continue to be disrupted by this illegal, inconsiderate, and dangerous activity."

Sensi-tize, Gt Yarmouth 31/7/10
Saturday at 9:00pm - Sunday at 6:00am
We all got in late as the police turned up with sniffer dogs to search all the crews flight cases etc. However there was no problems. Well what can i say for a legal party this was up there with the best ive been to, anyone else go?
I was there with my mates crew in Room 3 (jungle and oldschool), big up the norfolk raver bizzle :wink:.
As for Room 1 fuck me, ive never seen a rig so big. I dont really no what was in it im not that great with all the speaker types, but it blew me away literally. It was Nocturnal's and Chronic's stuff mainly tho. Picture of the rig is below:
The next one is in setempter some time i recomend hitting it up if you have nothing else planned.
Headfuk HEADFUK Interview:
When did the HEADFUK Collective start?
As an idea it started way back when a couple of us were at secondary school. We had plans for a 303 marching band and loads of free drugs related shenanigans. We were into acid and the whole psychedelic mind expansion thing. It sort of remained an idea until the spring of last year when we decided that it was about time to get off our arses and actually do something. We've been pushing full steam ahead since then with our parties, the record label and other general elevatory tactics.
What was the original aim behind the group?
We were disillusioned with what we saw as the deterioration of the Hardcore rave scene and the way that society is steadily going downhill. At the very least we wanted to put a bit of purpose in our lives and give us something to talk about when we bumped into mates we hadn't seen for a while. Really, we're just a diverse group of headz who are interested in aspects of everything. This is reflected in the diversity of the various projects and events that we're working on.
What are your upcoming projects?
All sorts of things are due to kick off this year. We're currently working on a night which will combine our pretty irregular breakbeat sessions with our Gabba night which never saw the light of day because Hackney Council came down on the venue we were due to use for our first night and made it clear that they weren't going to let it go ahead. Something about licence infringement or something. It's about time someone brought back the Gabba to London and the breakbeat night was something we felt quite strongly about as well what with all the breaks related clubs being full of poncy media tarts who are only there because it's the latest place to be.
Apart from this event, Pressure, which should come about in the next couple of months, we're working towards our main objective of getting our own sound system.
Then we can stop using club venues because that was never what we wanted to do. With our own resources we can do things entirely on our own terms and not have to charge on the door. With the warm weather, the summer season also brings out all the protests and civil disobedience. We'll be at the Cannabis Action event on May 1st and are preparing something of our own for the June 18th international day of disruption. As we near the end of the millennium we are expecting things to boil over and that means we're going to have to organise to stay on top of the whole mess.
You are about to release a record. Can you tell us something about that?
The whole thing that sparked off the label was because some of our DJs wanted to play out some of Ronin's tunes. We then realised that it really wasn't that hard to have a record label. From then on we decided that we had one and it's gone on from there. Not only do we want to change the rave scene and the way it's run, but we also are pissed off with the way Hardcore dance music has taken something of a turn for the worst. The only way to make a difference is to get the music out there.
This is why we'll be doing our own distribution, and not sucking on any executive cock, selling them onto record shops as per usual but also selling them to ravers at wholesale price. Instead of doing some 12" with a couple, or even just one, tune on there we're gonna be doing four track EPs with loads of different styles on one record. Hopefully people will buy it for one track and get into some of the other shit that's on there. We'll be playing it safe with a short run to start off with and all the profits going back into doing more records and getting a collectively owned studio.
Are you looking for other people to become involved?
Always. We initially started out as a bunch of mates and other people we'd hooked up with at raves and parties. Since we've been doing our own events and generally getting around at protests and whatnot we've expanded to include crews from Swindon, Luton, Oxford, Brighton, Cardiff and Cambridge, although we are based in London. We bring a positive message to people and make it clear that no one will make any money but hey, we'll put on some wicked parties, have a good time and everyone involved will eventually become far richer than they think. Money is pretty fucking worthless when it comes down to it and this message strikes deep. People are looking for change and we can only do all that we can to speed up the reaction.
The Unite The Systems bash in Lea Bridge Rd looks set to be your biggest event to date. How did you become involved with Cabal and Shtonka?
This rave definitely looks set to be kinda phat and it's the first proper collaboration with other sound systems. The stuff we've been doing at Trenz is mainly organised by us with our co-conspirators helping out with the rooms. We've recently got to know the crew from Cabal who are working with the owner of The Dungeons and we decided that we wanted to do a party together. It ended up as a three pronged attack with Shtonka coming in on it as well. Our crew are all fairly new to being on the other side of the party and we're glad to be working with some established crew who have made a good name for themselves in the past. The venue has a great history and we want to pick up where it left off.
Where can you see the Collective developing?
At the moment we plan to just keep on doing what we're doing. It's already begun to take us places and we're happy with that. Who knows where we'll be in a few years time. We predict that things will have changed dramatically in this country by then so it's anyone's guess. Basically, we're mainly doing one kind of thing whereas we want to move into warehouse raves, outdoor stuff and the whole Europe thing as well. Some of our lot from Swindon, Brave Nu Kru, have all sorts of plans for travelling and stuff this year and we'll definitely be along for some of that.
How do you see the rest of the rave scene in the UK at the moment?
Most of the original members of the collective started out at the big pay raves and clubs coz that was where the scene was for us. That all got a bit shit and it had been for a number of years with us not taking too much notice, probably because we were very young at the time. We got fed up with the extortionate entrance fees and typical promoter scams they always pulled. The only thing which kept us there, the music, took a turn for the worst and we quickly dropped out of that whole pay rave thing.
Since then we've been far more involved with the squat scene but a lot of time the squat parties in London just don't have the right atmosphere. We want to create a halfway house, where you get the proper electric atmosphere of a whole bunch of people going totally apeshit but within the underground because that's the only true place where Hardcore can develop. We've always been very politically minded and the underground scene is far more clued up in this respect.
On a different note, do the initials stand for anything? (!)
Hmmm, they've meant several thing over the years and we couldn't tell you what they stand for at the moment but we leave them in to make it clear that yes, we do stand for something.
Any parting messages?
Simply that we don't want to be the be all and end all. We urge everyone to set all their plans, hopes and aspirations into motion and we'll help out wherever possible. If you aren't happy with a situation then you need to find the antidote. People will sit up and take notice and maybe, like it's been for us, things will quickly take shape and lives can be changed for the better. It's 1999 and we need to make it stand for something more than just the eve of the millennium. Positivity is the only thing that will see us through whatever lies ahead.

Party ON! raaa
Lincolnshire party scene In lincolnshire the party scene is small and most parties now are kept just friends which is cool as there are no fights etc. just thought i'd put a few videos to show you what the scene is like up here.
In my opinion the free party scene is going downhill even though its good to be all friends and that i believe we need more people to keep going into the day.
The music played is mostly hardtek, acid techno, drum and bass, hardtrance, lynl style which is really good hardstyle (must listen)Linyl on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads, breakbeat and techno.
