Old Skool Day Rave: Liverpool

A daytime rave night in Liverpool, built around the sounds and culture of the 1990s, staged at Arts Club Liverpool. It draws on the club and warehouse scene of that decade.

Old Skool Day Rave: Liverpool is an electronic dance event that recreates the rave scene of the 1990s in an afternoon format. The programme is built around the music, fashion and spirit of that decade, with the emphasis on fast-tempo dancing and a crowd that moves together. Strobes, neon, lasers and the visual imagery associated with classic warehouse parties form part of the setting.

The music is drawn from the era's dance and big-beat acts, and the event names The Prodigy, The Chemical Brothers, Orbital, Underworld, Fatboy Slim, The KLF, Moby, Faithless, Basement Jaxx, Groove Armada, Aphex Twin, The Orb and Carl Cox among the artists whose work is associated with the night. Other reference points include Leftfield, Laurent Garnier, Phuture, 808 State, The Shamen and Josh Wink, along with The Future Sound of London and The Crystal Method.

The event is aimed at people who went to raves in the 1990s and want to revisit that period, as well as those who came to the scene later and wish to experience it. It takes place at Arts Club Liverpool, a concert and performance venue at 90 Seel Street in the city centre.
