Freaky Dancing celebrates 5 years during which we've thrown over 60 of the best underground techno & breaks parties this city has seen, partied in pretty much every venue in Newcastle and played host to many of the biggest names in techno and breaks.
We're please to be joined for the night by 3 of the key figures of the UK techno scene over the last 15 years in the form of the Stay Up Forever Collective's Chris Liberator, D.A.V.E. The Drummer and DJ Rackitt.
Over the last few years Chris & DAVE (Henry is his real name) have become firm favourites with the Freaky Dancing crowd following several storming sets, so we figured we'd get them both up and watch them blow the roof off for our birthday.
Stay Up Forever
Formed by the Liberator DJ's, Chris, Julian and Aaron, the Stay Up Forever Collective is arguably the most influential group of dj's, producers and labels in the UK's techno & hard dance scene, being almost singlehandedly responsible for developing and pushing the London Acid Techno sound in the mid-late nineties, before branching out to cover the range of minimal, electro, tech house, techno and of course the acid techno sound that made them famous.
Stay Up Forever Collective owns and runs 19 labels, including the eponomous Stay Up Forever, Cluster, Hydraulix, Power Tools, and R.A.W. which between them have been responsible for close to a thousand releases!
Chris Liberator
Chris Liberator is 1/3 of the Liberator Sound System, co-founder of Stay Up Forever and owner of Cluster, Maximum Minimum, Yolk and Wah Wah labels, a producer of numerous underground techno classics & a DJ who's played with everyone from Spiral Tribe onwards while always retaining his underground punk ethos.
D.A.V.E. The Drummer
With over 200 releases to his name, Henry Cullen aka D.A.V.E. The Drummer is one of the most prolific techno producers in the world, as well as running Hydraulix & Apex, 2 of the most influential underground techno labels, and spending to years Djing across the planet.
DJ Rackitt
Having played with many of the biggest and most respected squat party / rave crews of the last 10 years including Bedlam, Virus, Manic, Malfaiteurs, and Underground Sound, DJ Rackitt personifies the tough underground London Techno sound, as well as being the force that holds Stay Up Forever Collective together.
It's also her birthday so buy her a drink eh...
