When did you start getting involved within the Rave scene? And why?
Friend 2: When i was 16, i attended my first rave. It was something my friends around me and at the time, older than me, were all into. So it seemed normal and right for me to join in. My first night out on the rave scene brought me and my friends closer together... We had to stick together as their were tonnes of people.. and on drugs.
How often do you go to raves?
Friend 1: Every other week
Friend 2: Twice a week
What artists do you like?
Friend 1: Macky Gee
Friend 2: The Streets
How can you describe the Rave scene?
Friend 1: Colourful, friendly, crazy. It is full of individuals who like to party all night long till the sunrise. Everyone wears comfy but vibrant clothes to party in all night. It is a great way to meet new people and socialise with people who not only share the same interests but experiences. They tell you about other raves to go to.
Friend 2: Dirty, fun, freaky.
Is there a particular way of dress you stick to on a night out?/ What are your inspirations?
Friend 1: I wear mainly tracksuit and loungewear clothing to raves. I like to layer my clothing, as usually its freezing out.
Friend 2: I like wearing bright colours, and i usually have a lot of skin on show.
Why do you think people turn their nose up at rave at the rave scene?
Friend 1: Because we dress out of the ordinary. We essentially go to a party in our home, lounging clothes. Also many ravers show a lot of skin, lots wear crop tops.
Friend 2: Because a lot of drugs are involved.
Do you think the Rave scene and EDM have become too popular? Why or why not?
Friend 1: I would say that more different groups of people now attend raves. I wouldn't suggest it is just one subculture of people who attend them.
Friend 2: Many raves are overcrowded these days and therefore get shut down if there is to many people= more noise.
Do you think things have changed within the Rave scene? Like how?
Friend 1: Yes, 90's ravers used to wear more vibrant colours and accessorised outfits. But now a 2017 raver would wear a comfy for example adidas pinstripe tracksuit.
Friend 2: I feel like the music at raves has broadened and many EDM and Rave music are used in the backdrop of songs and played in nightclubs.
