Omniscience Beltane Celebration
Review by Arial AElise

There is something magical about Psytrance and live music in a forest glade by a lake! This particular heck of woods welcomed us on more than one occasion!

The Mud! The Horror! The Human Waste!
It didn't take me, or any other sentient being, long to realise that something was Badly Up with last year's Sunrise Celebration – less than ten minutes from finally getting through the main gate on foot, in my case.

Luminopolis: First Impressions
review by Alexia
photos Jam Gorilla
As I passed the awareness raising stands about the third world, the economics of fair trade, the sheet painted with anti-capitalist slogans, I felt the sneaking suspicion that some – if not all - of the people helming the Good Ship Luminopolis might be veterans of the late 90s free party scene, like myself. My suspicions intensified when I entered the second to last room, where a “Birth of Rave” discussion going on. A panel of talking rave-heads sat on a stage tossing ideas back and forth in front of a camera lens, a-la chat show.

Walk The Plank
@ Rhythm Factory 8th Feb 2008
Review by Minnie Mouse

Three things that made me and my friends brave a “Brass Monkeys” February night, and had for this party: one was the fact that my friend was involved in it; the other that DeadSilence Syndicate and Jerome Hill were on the bill. And finally, we went because it was held at the Rhythm Factory - one of east London’s friendliest and most accessible, venues.

6000 Gardeners Go Nuts in Cambridgeshire
Secret Garden Party
27-29th July 2007
Abbots Ripton near Huntingdon
Review and photos by Zee
At a secret location in the heart of Cambridgeshire a festival is about to take place. It has been referred to by the Independent as being the small festival to attend this year. The event has dispensed with all corporate sponsorship in favour of unbridled lunacy. It is apparently less of a festival and more of a massive garden party gone completely bonkers; it is the Secret Garden Party.

Nu Dawn
@ Rhythm Factory
27th May 2007
Review and photos by Minnie Mouse
With just 6 parties to date, Nu Dawn is a new addition to the rave scene, but judging by the large friendly crowd, they’re already earning a good reputation. The people I met were a good mix of different ages and backgrounds, which always seems to make for a friendly vibe.

Cosmonation
@ Medussa
20 April 2007
Review by Le Mufti, photos Jam Gorilla
This was a lively night with good music throughout. Yeah, this was a brick-a-brack night session. Cosmo is a new crew with some fresh ideas and a whole crew of mates to see it through.

Review by Le Mufti, photos by PixieLix
Bingly Bongly “Spring Roll” was a ray of sunshine. It blossomed into full colour at 491 Gallery, Leytonstone, in partnership with “Sofa Sundaze”: a fortnightly chill out.

Xtra bass presents Valve Soundsystem
@ Ministry of Sound
9th March 2007
Review and photos by Mandi Peers
This was the final night of the Xtra bass tour, hosted by the BBC’s urban music offshoot, 1xtra, and it was actually one of the best drum & bass parties I’ve ever been to.
The quality of the sound coming from Valve’s speakers, which totally lined the walls of the main room was nothing short of awesome. Ministry’s own speaker system is one of the best in London, but even that didn’t compete with Valve’s massive sound.

"Feeding All Your Senses"
Spacedout Infinity Sounds @ Medusa
17 February 2007
Review by Le Mufti, photos Jam Gorilla
Welcome to the twilight world, a forgotten place at the back of nowhere. A rundown nothing of a place, after a walk down the “Front line” past the estates, past the alleys and poorly lit side streets that follow the railway line to Loughborough Junction. Welcome to Spacedout Infinity Sounds magic and welcome to Medusa.
