The golden era of Old Skool is to be celebrated with you; the raver young and old deciding on who were the best DJ’s, what were the best record label and club & rave of that time and who is still doing it best nearly 20 years on?
No doubt this event concept will cause many a debate and heated discussion as everyone has their own view on old skool and what it means to them.
Some people think of illegal warehouse raves around the M25 others think of acid house/house /hardcore & jungle breakbeat and even some people think of speed garage as old skool but we are predominately talking about the magic era of 1990 - 1993 just before the happy hardcore/jungle split, when the scene was one & peace love & unity was true to form.

The politics on the dance scene can often spiral out of control and everyone is entitled to their point of view - but the love for the scene will always remain strong in every true ravers heart!
Whether you are a new raver to the old skool scene or you have been clubbing & raving 15 years or you are a DJ/MC/Producer/Promoter/ or run a record label or radio station no doubt you want to have your say/rant/moan/ or even praise on this matter!
So here is your chance to put in your 2 penny worth!

If you think we have missed something or someone on the nominations or you want to nominate yourself as a DJ or MC or you just want to give us your feedback good or bad
email us - we want to hear your views!

Please note - some DJ's/Mc's & artists from back in the day no longer want to be associated with 'old skool’ - (since they either don’t play it now or prefer to focus and be known for a more upfront music genre). This applies to people like Grooverider, Goldie, Hype, Zinc, Carl Cox, LTJ Bukem, Guru Josh, Prodigy etc.
All of which do not play old skool and have not for some time now - but if you still want to vote for these artists you can still put their names forward & do so and if they win we will do our utmost to twist their arm to play a specially prepared old skool set!
So get voting now and come and celebrate the line up you choose at one of London's most original old skool venue's -KOKO (formerly Camden Palace) on Bank Holiday Sunday 28th May
