【今晚】11月23日，算盘呈现: 90年代锐舞 | 90s Rave

11月23日，算盘将带来地下电子音乐黄金时代的代表人物，在那个黄金时代，“仓库派对”还是一个非常普及的活动，而且，并不是每个人都可以参加，直接把Club文化引向了我们今天说熟悉的文化和音乐。

第一批“锐舞” 因受到美国Acid House运动的影响，起源于80年代末的英国的地下运动。一群思维模式相近的人喜欢聚集在一起跳舞（增强彼此的意识形态），在每一个工业区，田野间，机场外等任何可以搭建声场系统和些许灯光的地方，都会响起这种思想超前的电子音乐。这些锐舞活动创造了一个充满了同情心、兴奋以及热舞能量的魔术般的幻境。阶级，政治，种族等等都不复存在，所有人一起跳舞直到天亮，直到永远。

这种疯狂又紧张的时代赋予了电子音乐在这个特俗时段的定义。在此之后，不断更新的技术让音乐制作人们不断竞相推出最新鲜或最奇怪的声音。随着音乐节拍得不断加快，更多小样得不断诞生，Breakbeats的重新排列组合，创造出了一种全新的音乐氛围从而将英国列入了世界电子音乐的版图中。一代又一代的DJ在不断播放欧洲和美国的唱片的同时，开始在自己的唱片袋中加入了来自他们自己家乡本土的声音，而之前放的那些音乐，已然成为了历史。

我们想要重新展现那个黄金时代的锐舞场景，还原那个时代最真实的Party声音。期待在那时代最重要的歌曲再次响起，从时间的河流中打捞出来那些已经被遗忘的经典，再加上一些全新的声效，就构成了经典的再次复兴。

我们同时也会提供一些特殊的灯光，来为到场的每一个人提供多重感官体验，而且，帮助观众回到当时的场景，更多的是一种感觉，一种让你不自觉地露出微笑的感觉。（比用手机自拍时露出来的假笑要强很多!）

将你们的自我带入另一个现实！

Suanpan presents: 90s Rave

Friday 23rd November, 2018

——::——::—————::——

On Friday 23rd November, Suanpan present a very exciting, one-off return to the golden age of underground electronic music; to a time when warehouse raves were commonplace and, without knowing it, reshaping club culture and dance music into what we recognize today. 

Raves first began as an underground movement in the UK towards the end of the 1980s, growing out of the acid house movement in the US. Groups of like-minded people would get together and dance (in an enhanced state of consciousness) to all types of forward-thinking electronic music in industrial spaces, fields, airport hangers, or anywhere else a sound system and some lights could be set up. These raves created a magical environment full of empathy, euphoria, and energy. Class, political, and racial barriers were broken and crowds would dance well into the next day and beyond.

This crazy and intense time was a defining period for electronic music. The constant introduction of new technology saw producers compete with one another to see who could come up with the weirdest and freshest sounds. Tempos dramatically increased, samples mutilated, and breakbeats taken apart and re-stitched, creating a whole new sonic dimension that put the UK on the electronic music map. Generations of DJs who’d leant their craft playing American and European records were suddenly filling their record bags with homegrown belters. And the rest, is history.

We want to reproduce what it was like to be at a rave back then and stay true to the original sound of these parties. Expect some of the most important tracks of that era and the unearthing of some forgotten gems to be played, with plenty of hoover noises, piano stabs and breakbeats in between.

We’ll also be installing some bespoke lighting to provide a multi-sensory experience, and help transport you back to a time when music was more about a feeling, and dancing with a smile on your face (rather than having a phone in front of it).

Transport yourself to an alternate reality.
