Listening to these guys while reading this brings back ALL the memories. 90's east coast rave scene was an eye opener.
I have come to realize in hindsight that much of who I am was shaped by Gibson, Thompson, rave culture and all the drugs I could get my hands on. Locked up all weekend with friends a pile of molly, mushrooms and the first kind bud I ever saw.
So much of early tech is interlaced into drug cluture and I dont think we talk about it out in the open as much as we should. That however might be a good thing.
