    Stay Up Forever a Brief History

    Out of the Rave explosion at the end of the Eighties came a massive underground dance movement that combined the anarchy of the free festivals with the music and style of the orbital Rave parties.

    Three DJs from the Hackney area of London called Chris Aaron and Julian Liberator took the spirit of this movement to their own all night rave parties.

    They would fill squatted venues with punks and ravers who lost their minds to the tough and totally tripped out techno sounds that were being spun by these three brothers in arms.

    By 1993 the Liberators teamed up with the extremely influential sound system Bedlam busting into warehouses to make some of the most chaotic free parties London had ever seen. This was to have a profound and long lasting effect on the Liberators in both their attitude towards the dance music scene and their commitment to the London squat party scene playing for sound systems such as Immersion, Underground Sound and Manic and you can still find a Liberator or two or three playing at a squat party in a warehouse on the fringes of London today.

    The music also was starting to influence their direction and by 1994 the boys started the Stay Up Forever record label a chance for them to express what they wanted to hear in those early free parties.

    With the help of local producers Paul Harding and D.D.R. Stay Up forever began to take shape. Originally the label was going to be a techno label with some influence of the Roland 303 machine sound that had created Acid House. What was unforeseen was that the label soon developed its own sound, a unique style that had the heart of British rave/ hardcore due to big breakdowns and the spirit of Detroit techno finished off with intense 303 lines………Acid Techno was born!

    The label soon created a following thanks to some very anthemic releases and support from John Peel, Carl Cox and Justin Robinson. Some of the early hits were A&E Dept’s “Rabbits Name was”, D.O.M.’s “Acid War” and Secrete Hero’s “Control” which helped to gain the label international attention.

    The artists who made the records soon started to feel the benefit of the hype around the label, traveling the world DJing and playing live. These are Geezer, Ant, Aaron and Julian Liberator, Gizelle, D.D.R. and the labels very own superstars Chris Liberator and D.A.V.E. The Drummer.

    Throughout the Nineties and into the new millennium Stay Up Forever expanded to incorporate various new record labels such as the techno styled Cluster and D.A.V.E. The Drummer’s Hydraulix, the Geezer’s bass heavy R.A.W., Ant’s Powertools and schranz maestro Alex Calver’s Glitch.

    The label itself continued to have hits most notably 2004’s Dynamo City “One Night In Hackney” which has been the biggest seller and most influential Acid Techno track of all time. Stay Up Forever is still bringing you big party anthems and fierce 303 salvos, new artist such as A.P. and Sterling Moss help to keep it not just fresh but always ahead of the pack.
