Über diesen Titel

WINNER OF THE SILVER ARIAS AWARD 2024 IN THE BEST AUDIO BOOK OR READING CATEGORY

'Love this book! It triggers so many memories of the rave era. Thoroughly recommended.' - FATBOY SLIM

'Captures the hedonism and humour of the nineties with a laugh-out-loud honesty. The perfect Ibiza holiday read...if you can get it through customs!' - JUDGE JULES

'Some great stories from those early rave days. Really made me giggle.' - CARL COX

As a humble barman at the M25 Orbital raves, Kirk Field witnessed the moment acid house exploded. Inspired by media lies to start writing the truth about what he saw unfolding, Kirk became a 'raving' reporter for the clubbers' bible Mixmag, covering the historic parties from the inside and sending sweat-soaked dispatches from distant dancefloors as the scene expanded across Europe and beyond.

With a cast of characters including Diego Maradona, Timothy Leary, the KLF, Michael Eavis, Genesis P-Orridge, Brigitte Nielsen, Boris Yeltsin, Boy George, Saddam Hussein's wife, the president of Tunisia, the CIA, the KGB, Dave Courtney, Norman Lamont's dominatrix and even Her Majesty the Queen, Kirk's whirlwind account of the golden age of clubbing tells the story of what really happened in the 'naughty '90s', exposing the seedy underbelly of rave culture while also capturing the nostalgic spirit of the era.

Told through a mixture of vivid first-person narrative, surreal insider anecdotes and incisive social commentary, this honest, hilarious and uncensored postcard of hedonism will appeal to anyone who's ever put their hands in the air like they just don't care.©2023 Kirk Field (P)2023 Bonnier Books UK

Author and Rave-journalist Kirk Field was lucky in a double sense: He witnessed the beginning of UK Rave-culture plus he was able to write.

Back then, he started to deliver insider-insights for Mixmag, which made him one of the first Rave-reporters who really knew what Rave culture means (in contradiction to the UK mainstream press that condemned the movement).

Anyone who experienced Rave culture him/herself knows to tell some crazy stories.

Kirk Field shares some of his crazy stories here, reading them himself in best British English. Loved it to listen!

Great stories from when it all started
