    I concur that Interdance at Sterns was a very special place.
    The excitement on the way with my Brother and mates in the car, a stomping good evening, meeting like minded people, feeling the love and the comedown in the car park with all the different sound systems.
    We still reminisce to this day.

    What a moving tribute to Sterns mate. Respect to you and all the fellow ravers who frequented, not only Sterns, but any rave venue here in the UK. Ah, the 90s. What a time to be alive, partying with like minded people who just oozed love. And sweat!
    It's good to see Sterns has been put to good use and not some corporate office block or student flats.
    Going there MUST have brought a tiny tear to the eye, what with all those (hazy) memories that would have come flooding back.
    Huge love and respect to you Jake and every fellow raver watching this. Big ups guys ❤️👊

      Completely. You certainly accomplished that! Your outlook and insight on those heady early 90s days and the warmth with which you recall them is what it was all about. Your character epitomises the good that was flowing out of the vast majority of rave going folks back then. We just wanted to have a good time, and we did! If we could share that happiness with others, we did. Thank you Jake

    Lived in Worthing all my life and used to goto sterns before acid house came along. I can remember going to the very first rave called Purple Haze which was put on buy some friends of mine. Then along came Mensa and completely changed it. All though I went to loads of parties up there, being a local. We used to use it more of a back up and travel all around the country to different raves
    Sterns was rammed every single week. I still miss those days now as it was truly life changing although that could be those little white birds.

    Great story jake of the club back in the days. Was a regular at the club. Before mensa there was nights called purple haze. They where good but mensa was the man who put sterns well and truly on the map the hype of the club was something else across the southcoast party people from all over the country to party all under one roof. The vibe was always spot on. My friend used to run a lazer on the top floor as you first walked in. Every weekend. Curtain as a back drop. What nights we had, would love to see some off the faces again. Djs for me that played some great choons where from that era was Dr. S Randall pig bag. My track would be zero b lock up. Thank you jake. RlP Mensa interdance. Rip Eddie Stenner empire.

    I’m in my early 20s so there’s something bittersweet about watching this, whilst there is a rave scene now that I do enjoy - I find it hard to believe there’s anything about these days that will inspire memories like these.
    Hopefully time will prove me wrong but man, the people who got to experience venues like these in the early ‘90s are unbelievably lucky.

      Yeah, I turned 18 in ‘91 and don’t think there was a time like it before (even the 60s) or since. We were very lucky and it was so unique, underground (even when the raves were in clubs for the first couple years) and absolutely mental. Acid house lit the way, but there was no real precedent for what we were doing and experiencing and it was organic and exciting af

      @harryarmstrong9816 Před 8 dny

      @@My_Work_Here_is_Done.. I think what exemplifies how unprecedented this era was more than anything is that even in a rave now the tunes that get the biggest response are the ones from this era, there’s absolutely no comparison for that at all - tunes were obsolete after about 6 months to a year back then, imagine a DJ whacked on a 30+ year old record at a rave in ‘92 and it was the highlight - it just wouldn’t happen. Truly a unique moment in time that will likely never be replicated.

    Absolute banging Video mate ✌️✌️👍👍Never managed to go there,Our club we used to got to was a club called Milwaukee’s just north of Bedford on a place called Souldrop Turn ,It was run by a rave group called Equinox, open on Fridays from 10pm - 6am we had the pleasure of Dj,s like Fabio,Dougal,Ellis Dee,Grooverider,Carl cox,LTJ bookem the list was endless. The mc was normally The Fat Controller, This place had a Banging Cerwin Vega sound system your ears still buzzed days later from this place, used to get our gear at the local boozer then head off in a couple of cars to the venue, drop a bit of speed 20mins before we arrived then most of us had Roos trainers which had a secret pocket in the toung which we hid our gear in 😂😂Bouncers didn’t have a clue 👍 This club was amazing,unfortunately now gone 😢 love you channel mate brings back so many good memories. Ps if you type in Milwaukee’s Bedford I’m sure there is some picture of the club in a bad state after a fire on the net 👍👍👍Also there quite a few vid on CZcams of mixes played live at this venue enjoy 👍👍

    Amazing Jake, you captured it perfectly, I started going mid 91 all the way through to the last night in August 93. I also used to do the journey down the A24😂. This video brought back so many memories, still got all the flyers the monthly news letters and my membership cards.
    I visited early this year, it took me a while to get my bearings, was chatting to a couple on the next table to us turns out he was a bouncer back in the day. Loved that place, so many good nights.

    What a great tribute. We all had THAT club. Mine was Kelly's in Portrush, Northern Ireland. I started going in the summer of '91. At that time the war in Belfast was going crazy and people were getting shot every other day. Kelly's was about 30 miles outside Belfast and was an oasis of calm. Everybody was too wrecked to care about sectarian nonsense and the love was flowing. Great vibes and great choons.

    Just the way you describe your nights at Sterns (I never went, but had my own regular haunts in London, Roller Express, Astoria, Camden Palace, Rocket etc..) and drop in the not so subtle nods of our state of being (staring at something on the wall for 10 minutes!!! haha) just fill me with joy and invoke long forgotten memories. Jeez, i used to be in a state some nights! All this interspersed with the soundtrack of our youth, which was what it is all about, just cranks up up my nostalgia to 11. Keep them coming please Jake.

    I saw that Mensa documentary back when it first came out, the first thing I noticed is that Carl Cox has been EVERYWHERE. Second was how wild, and different, most peoples relation to electronic music is compared to mine. I'm sure there were raves about for people cooler than I was but all of my stories involve laying on the carpet in a dark room with my brother listening to a bunch of wild tracks nobody else in Albuquerque, NM would dare attempt listening to. Of course I'm a few years younger so it wohldn't have been this banging rave stuff in 98/99.

    Wicked insight into your formative years, never ventured to Sterns but it was always mentioned in high regard by everyone who went there and you've honoured it well in music and visuals. I think we all had our 'Home Venue' that we hold dear that has a special place in our memories and heart, but like Sterns (and I would imagine most places) they are just that, memories as they have either been repurposed or closed never to accept the pound of beats and feet of days past.

    This is a great selection of tunes. I went regularly from 1991 onwards and you've absolutely nailed the music. My brother used to do illustrations for the Interdance newsletter and some of the flyers (I think he did the one on the wall in the background). He did the 12 days of Christmas flyer. What a club, walking down those stairs and into the underground for the first time changed music forever for me.

    My friend DJ TIMMY MAGIC told me about that venue,didn't know him then but remember being up in a London record shop and seeing a flyer for sterns and when I checked where it was I said no thank you!
    Picked up Carl Cox vinyl grooverider stern cassette from a secondhand shop years ago still got it
    Late 90s and finally,I'm in Empire in Bognor filming and that started my 10 year trips down to West Sussex,we were there last week for the voodoo festival in Chichester

      Yeah I guess if you were London-based...or further North at that time, Worthing would've seemed like a near impossible journey to go clubbing.

    Well done Jake,loved this one.Another ex-raver who never made it down there but heard at the time is was a mental place.Watched the Mensa youtube film last year(wicked and the drum club tune at end is a superb emotional one) went down and visited the site last summer.The table garden was packed so still a popular place !

    Jake I love your passion for the oldskool and hardcore. You take us to nostalgia nirvanna. Read a random comment on YT like 15 years ago now that I sometimes use to describe it. "Once you have had a chemical rendezvous with music the door is always open and never fully shuts." Pretty much sums it up for all us old ravers.

    • @rave-vinyl-reminiscence
      @rave-vinyl-reminiscence  Před 7 dny +1

      A million words couldn't fully translate the experiential polishing that such a rendezvous has permanently laced these tunes with for us 😊❤️

      @@rave-vinyl-reminiscence I know there are 100s of tunes you could have included here, but would have put money on you including The Horn Track (Egyptian Empire)… if ever a tune chewed you up and spat you out in the Underground…. Jesus 😂😎, and Pennywise (Neuromancer)… which still makes me nearly weep whenever I hear it 😂.
      Great selection, though, mate 👍

    Absolutely loved Sterns, and had many mental, lost it nights there. Always in the underground, or in the tea room talking lost it to random strangers. Best club, best people, best DJs and best of times. The night Prodigy played was off the hook.

    Well done Jake! that really took me down memory lane - im sure i met you at Sterns a couple of times . im 48 now . I was surprised you whipped out "get the message" and "bach to basics" - i thought these were random obscure tunes i had bought when record shopping in Brighton and Soho in the early 90s!! i will email you as im sure we may have a few tunes each that we have been looking for and we might have between us!! im from crawley - used to drive down the A24 when i was 18 to this unforgettable place. Maybe your intereseted in finding a small venue to put on a night or 2 ..? house and hardcore .. i have an amazing RCF pa system , lights, music and public liability license.. im just getting back into the mobile djing game .

  • @BillyMustang101
    @BillyMustang101 Před 8 dny

    Sterns was definitely my favourite ever club in the UK. Only Tresor in Berlin beats it for me. That epic night in Sept 92 with Lenny D set me on my path of harder styles and promoting in London and Germany until 2017. Rave to the Grave 🤟

  • @danallery8207
    @danallery8207 Před 10 dny

    Get The Message such a quality rush bit of tunage. The ready-to-move followed by the simple kick drum is such a great part. I still haven't figured out how to consistently mix that bit as it goes off the grid

    • @rave-vinyl-reminiscence
      @rave-vinyl-reminiscence  Před 9 dny

      Great innit 😎
      You have to set it off after just 4 bars of the drums after the vocal. The "Ready to move" vocal is halfway through a full loop of 8 count, if you know what I mean.

  • @logman72
    @logman72 Před 8 dny

    I bought a VHS tape of an all-nighter we went to in 1991. I think they used to sell them for about 20 quid. Unfortunately I didn't live in the house we had at the time when it was sold in 1999. It got lost when the house was cleaned out. I think it was different to the Sterns vids you can find online but I might be wrong. Still gutted to have lost it.

    Amazing vid Jake, incredible choons. I love hardcore but at the same time cannot cope with it if that makes any sense, five hardcore's would have sent me to the Garage room with the True Faith lol. Did you ever like the more blissed out stuff like Soul Odyssey Rapture or Perfect Motion??? Lemon D Something I Feel is a choon I am drawn to these days also LTJ Bukem, did you always stick with hardcore on your journey or did you evolve??? A perfect night definitely has some hardcore though, I do love your output.

      That Lemon D 'Something I Feel' track is quality. Love a bit of Bukem too (I've played some Lemon D and Bukem in previous episodes).
      That kind of rolling, journeying stuff is great to mix with too.
