OG UK ravers please read !!!
Hello! I’m currently a third year sociology student completing my dissertation which will be about the decline of UK nightlife. As part of this i’m doing 2 mini docs, and one of these I will be using Jungle as a case study to demonstrate the cultural and social importance of nightlife.
I would absolutely love and appreciate the opinion from OG UK ravers, from any scene but jungle would be most helpful.
So my questions are… (feel free to answer as many as you like or none! or simply throw in any memories in the comments!)
What did raves mean to you back then, was community a big aspect?
Is it different to what raves mean/are now?
How did Jungle change the scene? Would you say it diversified the dance floor?
What did it mean to youth identity?
Was it all as exciting and amazing as it looked?!!
Thank you so much, any answers or any stories would be a huuuge help <3
Or even any footage I could include!
