My friend and I, about... well a few months ago came up with this idea named "Dark Rave" where its a huge warehouse or some such place, all done up - ofcourse were going to need tons of cash to do this..... but its something to try for anyways...
And what wed do is set up the most hardcore, intense visual show, moving visuals, screens, hollograms, lights.... all the works that will blow your mind. It will be DARK techno, all of it...... some industrial thrown in there as well maybe.
The scene will grow, people will dress like cyber punks, industrial clothes, dark..... not goth at all, NO. Dont confuse it with goth or metal. Its not. Its totally new.
Dark Rave.....

"DARK RAVE v.26" hard techno, trance, industrial and more in the main room, plus an EBM sideroom

TrevorGod have you been to one? Sounds good. I don't know of any regular clubs that do stuff like that. I'd be up for it if there was one in the UK.

I went to one about 2 years ago and it was really, really good. A nice dark atmosphere but still a good sense of community. I haven't been to one lately because I'm boycotting anything that uses' the term 'rave'. I don't know why it just pisses me off to hear it. Raves died years ago now they are just themed club nights trying to get idy credit so they can pull in more $.

i think it would be cool if you had raves... that were completely dark...no lights or anything...or maybe just one strobe light...and a lot of fog
and they played really brutal music...with really deep bass that made people barf...and have people dressed up in funny suits...like as big bird and teddy bears or something...and run through the crowd beating people up..
a night of fun and confusion will be had by all...im not sure what i would call this 'scene' ...but it should be something misleading...so people would go not knowing what theyre getting into... any suggestions?

Merry Pranksters?
ie. -"hey Bobby, let's go to the Merry Prankster down at the Sand Bar."
- "O.K. sounds good. 'supposed to be a wild party"
Then chaos and mayhem ensues >:|

At my local club (metroes) the DJ used to play Smack my Bitch Up and Poison with the lights off completely and just used to used a red fast strobe on the really intense bits. Because the club is underground (literally) and has no windows you could just make out movement, but not shapes. It was brilliant. I imagine if there was continual darkness you'd have problems with mugging/sexual abuse.
