I remember recording this on vhs as a 14 year old. It blew my mind. I taped the Hitman and her the following week and they were in a sausage fest Ritzy full of blokes in a shirt and tie dancing to Kylie. Hard to fathom both genres in the same year
I used to go to the eclipse and the edge back in the day. It was a really friendly place at the beginning and met loads of nice people but got rough towards the end and a lot seemed to have an attitude. Good 💊 and top DJs every week though,👌 awesome times🙂
My wicked years un England,used to work in Stratford n was reachin Coventry n all the places where raves were on, i wanted to fully live n share these awesome events wth my mates n all the pple un there. I would kill to get back to this. Thnx to all the DJs, the brits for sharing n involvin me to these blindin events. Will always be on my freakin mind.
Amazing that they were dancing to grease megamix in the ritzy in '91 and in a year they were gurning to breakbeats and bleeps in warehouses. Hitman and her caught the last musical revolution live. We could do with another.
@Sol Cutta mate you'll remember the Rave FM days then and of course BPM and Marcus Garvey with MRB awesome I'm from Derbyshire so Notts and of course Renaissance and Zest nights in Mansfield we're the place to be!!! Not to mention the D.I.Y scene around Nottinghamshire
Hell yeah. Ecstasy was one hell of a drug. Although to be fair - it was a confluence of events : cheap computers & electronic gear plus the drug. ( most rave tracks were made in the bedroom ).
And here we all are roughly 30 years on from the Second Summer of Love Acid House and Rave explosion watching this beautifully caught nostalgic view of the early 90's alot of the time at night time or in the early hours on a Saturday night thinking......'I really wanna be back there somewhere different to where I am now watching all of this tucked up in bed'....'I wanna be out there chasing those lasers and 'dancing like no one is watching' and making new mates coz after all 'strangers are just friends we havn't met yet!'
RELICS92 you sound like one of the permanently damaged individuals because of too many of these nights lmfao. I'm only joking I hope you know, I wouldn't be writing this seriously it's in jest but actually people were abusing drugs back then,you either loved it or hated, I hated raves I liked getting pissed in the dance music clubs better
Brilliant sets. Copied this onto cassette from my VHS copy and wore it out. I was at school when this was broadcast and God did I want to go to a rave after watching this. Brilliant music, ace mixing, mad ravers, excellent!
Never got to The Eclipse, but, heard all about it from Mixmag Update and Pete Tong. I was 13 years-old in 1987 when I started getting into Acid House / Rave and other artists like S’Express, Bomb The Bass, Inner City, D’Mob, The Beatmasters.... the pre-cursor were The Pet Shop Boys and as they were quite dance-y it was a natural progression. A musical revolution was taking place as we entered the new decade and the 90’s are remembered extremely fondly.
@@patricksmith3432 if you never experienced the eclipse you missed out ! I've been to many many different venues back in the day and I never seen better.
Thats because this is the fake legal cheesy rave that was a million miles away from the original Balearic spirt - that was here and back then in 87/88/89 czcams.com/video/b43Tb5PrqR4/video.html
so at 46.09 this is the moment Pete realizes his small show is not the main attraction anymore and has become a sweaty sideshow! Time to go back to Bananarama !
You can complain all you want these days about prices going up but It’s amazing that the girls being interviewed said it was £20 a ticket and even now in 2023 raves can be had for around that or even less. 🖤
Watched this a good few times, what a club, apart from shitman and it, im glad they did it cos there isn't much about from back in the day is there, there's the pleasuredrome one but that's it really, I'm 45, used to go Hippo's in Middleton, what a club that was, I'd smash something like this now, Bolwers is on again next April 2021, DJ Nipper is sorting it out, just needs to be hardcore like this
The best Hitman & Her episode by far. Carl Cox ripped up those two copies of visa/let me see you move. Anyone wanting 2 hours of obscure & rare oldskool tunage mixed live, catch me on www.rave-radio.com every Sunday 2pm Uk time !
Best years of my fucking life, makes me sad really, im 47 now and im a broken wreck from it all, didnt stop until 2016 a few years after a heart attack... I want to go back, having had my body rebuilt with an exo-skeleton and mechanical organs and do it all again!!! ❤❤❤❤
In a short space of time, The Hitman & Her were totally out of their depth. A revolution had happened which they weren't a part of. I was though, almost every weekend at The Eclipse / Edge or Rage in Leicester for Amnesia House, Fibre Optic. 😅
I just watched an episode from 27th January 1990 in Blackpool, and a lot of the crowd are wearing suits and ties, and have moustaches and mullets. Amazing how quickly things changed in the space of 2 years.
Dragon Energy lol these raves were full of drugs, it was so fast and repetitive the type of music your head was battered less than an hour in this place without drugs. The slower dance music was much better like on the hit man and her . Everyone is full of pills on here and every rave I'm not joking. Mikaela was spot on it was always over full hot and sweaty total head f**k without drugs. Most ravers didn't sleep all weekend and there brains still damaged today off the amount of drug abuse
@@lexithebullterrier3813 ..and yet we can still write grammatically correct, coherent, proper sentences and spell words and peoples' names correctly, especially when the correct spelling of her name is literally shown on-screen at the beginning of the show.. so no, I don't think *their* brains are still damaged today *from* the amount of drug abuse, but yours may well have been damaged from years of being presumptuous and spectacularly missing the point of rave culture.. :D
@@jasensaunders1895 rave culture my a**e! I have friends that have never been the same because they are mentally damaged . Just because a person can spell and string a sentence together doesn’t matter....it’s scientifically proven that drug abuse damages brain cells causing numerous mental illnesses.....so take your rude comment and stick it up your a**e
It's ok, you can use "rude" words without asterisks on here, you won't get told off by your mum pmsl. Unfortunately, I have to decline your kind offer concerning my "rude" comment and what to do with it, thanks anyway, but I do find the irony extremely amusing. I also have friends, perhaps surprisingly, but who are exactly the same as they were back then, they aren't "mentally damaged" at all. There are equally many, many people physically and mentally damaged from the wide-ranging effects of alcohol abuse throughout society, which appears to be much worse than all drugs combined, so what's your point? Your comments belie the fact that you are not a raver, nor indeed does it sound like you ever went to an actual rave, apart from probably that one time when, in your own words, "it was so fast and repetitive the type of music your head was battered less than an hour in this place without drugs." (whatever that word salad means) "The slower dance music was much better like on the hit man and her ." So it's perhaps unwise to lecture Dragon on something you evidently have little or no experience of. I'm sorry if some of your friends really are, and I quote, "mentally damaged", perhaps they overdid it back in the day, as can all too easily happen with any alcohol/substances. I'm sure they must be only too delighted that you feel it appropriate to describe them in that way on a public forum... Just because you weren't involved in a scene, there's no need to demonise it and the people that were involved in it with your presumptions and assumptions. How do you even know your friends wouldn't have ended up with the same conditions if they hadn't been involved in the rave scene? Perhaps it's the result of something else and not that scientific proof of drug (ab)use that you so expertly describe....
They were so late to even dabble in the rave scene. It had been going since the late 80s and by 1992, when this was filmed, the rave scene was loosing a lot of steam.
If ever there was a defining moment in UK history where the Tories realised there was a chasm between the UK population and their evil pernicious greed it was this. The sight of an overweight old balding Waterman trying to keep up with kids on E is hilarity itself.
Er......Except since this country has voted in a procession tory leaders one-after-the-other ever since (except for Tory-Lite-Nu-Labour). The very kids that are in this video are now the core Tory vote. The toytown rave sound and it going into indoor clubs were the death of the original Acid House spirit. This is the cheese scene that came after.
PAYDAY 2 ENDED WITH THE GANG BEING RETIRED. wANNEVI EXPLAINED during the livestream. "Payday3 takes place some years after that. when the gang are pulled back into a life of crime. not wholly by their own choice."
I was there first time round. I loved the music but it wasn't made for lyrics lovers. Repetitive beats lasting 5 minutes with the MC giving it, "HUGE IN IBEE-THA!!!" wouldn't have been great to watch on TV when you're not eccied out your nut. I didn't need drugs to dance all night and enjoy myself. No wonder this show died on its arse when it only had this to show :)
This makes no sense...I've always loved bleeps, beeps, sirens and ravey stuff without drugs. Also this was only a one off at a rave club and they were back at the ritzy in Hull the week after dancing to pop music..i'd look into it before commenting.
Hitman and her lost out to the drugs & rave scene - you can see Michaela and Pete wonder wtf they are doing there (@29:27 I don't think she's joking about not wanting to be there). Clive's given it a miss. Everyone Pete & Michaela interview is off their face! (Take a look @28:29 lmfao) Me? I didn't need no steenking drugs to enjoy myself!! Love Altern8 but rest is pish you need to be on drugs for. They weren't even selling any alcohol there, how blatant is it that everyone's dropping one!!!!

The Eclipse was the greatest Club in the UK from 90 - 92 and if you disagree it's because you didn't go. Rammed to the rafters every week. The Church.

Yes and Sterns down here. Real rave clubs and heavy duty.

27:05 the thought of being there while Carl Cox drops Some Justice in 1991.
He used to play on 3 decks there on occasions. He was at an unbelievable skill level even back then.
Great memories
I did the same: Hitman and Her were bang in there and were truly original in that they had their finger on the pulse: if only they were there in '88!
Just great memories now
