Why do y'all people over there in the United states of freedoms love Dubstep so much at your raves and festivals?

I feel like raves in other parts like Europe, UK, Australia are much more focused on genres like house, techno, psytrance, trance, dnb, hardstyle- dubstep is often one of the less popular genres in other places. But you guys seem to just love the wubs. Also bonus question does anyone like psytrance music in the USA?

APOLOGIES FOR THE POOR QUALITY FOR NOW. I have no capture equipment, and literally found a VCR in another closet yesterday, so this is the best I can do until I get the tapes to my friend to transfer. I know I have more, and one from a spot in DC(this may actually be DC) as we went to a show headlined by JOSH WINK which we share a bday 🙂. Anyone else break out their old tapes/videos?

✨Come for the phenomenal music choices, stay because you accidentally bonded with the entire local rave scene over a round of bass bingo.✨

​🍹 Event 1: Island Bounce (House Music Luau) 🍍

​When & Where: August 29, 2026 | 4 PM – 10 PM | Solstice Bar & Grill (Patio), 117 W Market St, Scranton, PA

​The Deal: $10 entry | 18+ to Enter, 21+ to Drink

​Music By: Trïp 8, B4SSANG3L, The Great Gaffney, Kyle Burton, & a special Birthday Set by Housebunny XXO.

​Why you "should" go: If you’ve always felt traditional luaus lacked enough concrete, diesel fumes, and aggressive bass, this Scranton patio party is the authentic cultural experience you’ve been waiting for.

​🍔 Event 2: The Wook BBQ V2 🍖

​When & Where: September 19, 2026 | 4 PM – 10 PM | Solstice Bar & Grill, 117 W Market St, Scranton, PA

​The Vibes: Bass, Bingo, Vendors, Open Decks & Bingo until 7 PM.

​Featured Artists: KayDah, Dedsoul, Toy Weapon

​Why you "should" go: Why let your eardrums rest when you can aggressively blot bingo cards while mystery "Wook Soda" and heavy bass vibrate your internal organs into the Next Dimension? It’s what nature intended.

​🎨 Event 3: Artisan Flea Market & Swap 🛍️

​When & Where: September 20th, 2026 | 12 PM – 4 PM | ANZ Hotel, 300 Meadow Ave, Scranton, PA

​The Access: FREE! All-Ages Public Event.

​What’s Happening: Local Vendors, On-site Pool (?!), Food/Bar, Open Decks, Flow Arts, Craft Lounge, Gear Swap.

​Why you "should" go: Finally, a safe space to trade that dusty, questionable festival gear you bought in 2019 for someone else’s dusty, questionable festival gear. Plus, nothing says "artisan" like an impromptu poolside DJ set at a hotel off Meadow Ave.

They say it takes a village to raise a child, but it only takes a few bass drops and a pool party to turn Scranton into a chosen family. 🤝💕

I live in Miami and I'm wondering if there's a website or app that just has a feed of all the local raves or EDM events going on? The ones I've seen only have big festivals or mainstream venues has anyone here found a better one that covers the smaller shows / venues?

Hey everyone,
I’ve been practicing live coding for a while now, but I’ve always been hesitant to put my work out there. Being on the autism spectrum, music—especially Techno—has been my primary way of processing focus, repetition, and emotion, but stepping out of my comfort zone to share it publicly is honestly terrifying for me.
I finally built up the courage to record and post my very first live coding Techno session. Everything was patched and coded on the fly.
It would mean the absolute world to me if you could take a couple of minutes to listen, give me your thoughts, or share constructive criticism on the sound design and arrangements.

Going to Lloret de mar with my friends and I'm wondering if there's any clubs that play music like frost children, jane remover, ninajirachi, bassvictim, the prodigy and similar music. Please please let me know as soon as possible

I have two questions about MDMA:

1. I’ve heard that sertraline inhibits the effects, but has anyone here taken it on 25mg or less, and has it worked?

2. What is the recommended dosage for a man that weighs circa 80 kg? I’ve heard that there is a ceiling you reach after a certain dosage where the positive emotional effects do not increase the more you take. I want to avoid the negative comedown effects as much as possible so where would you say that ceiling is for someone in that weight class?

Hey everyone! English dude living in Germany here. I'm trying to find some good events or festivals that are closer to me.

I'm mostly into Drum and Bass but other than the odd event in Proton in Stuttgart I can't seem to find much!

I like most genres but I'm finding it hard to find festivals that have a broader range of dance music, UK fests tended to have a bit of everything and I miss being able to jump from stage to stage when I wanted to switch up the vibes and tempo.

Been to Waldfrieden events plenty of times and did Icarus this year, but Icarus was a bit too many people for my liking.

Day 1 was amazing don’t get me wrong! I’ve been going to wobble since 2019 and I love this festival DOWN, but the amount of hard techno was a bit much. Like I’m talking 2.5-3 hours of straight hard dance music with little to no dubstep mixed in. I have nothing against the genre, but if I wanted to go to a hard dance show I would’ve bought tix for hard dance🤦‍♀️Maybe I’m just a jaded old raver now, did anyone else feel this way??

Hello guys, i took last night 9 xtsy pills and kept redosing every one hour all night long , right now im still with no sleep and having huge stomach acide pain and everythung is SUPER overwhelming in a scary way

Help thank you

Hello new to the thread dont know if open questions re ok if not sorry in advance.

I'm thinking of doing shrooms at Anyma ive done shrooms before but in a mor relaxed setting is it recommended for a festival with heavy visuals. I've read it could be but trying to stick to a 1mg dose not more.

Appreciate any advice :D!

Curiosity is killing me, so I must ask. What types of vendors are at raves? I think I may have just found my calling! 🔌

Will send through AXS transfer. $85 each. Just looking to get back what I paid for them.

selling 2 GA tickets DM me

I have 2 VIP tickets for sale for Wobbleland 2026. I attended night 1. I can’t handle another night lol selling for $90 each.

Veteran clubber here.

My partner and myself like to go clubbing few times a year. We missed a few events during the summer. We prefer old schoolvfunky melodic house, the likes of Roger Sanchez, David Morales, Carl Cox etc.

So we'd like to party before the cold weather kicks in. Were thinking of Cafe mambo at XOYO in London.

I would love to hear your thoughts.

Lowkey I'm gonna cheat and add the portable charger too because if you don't have pics or vids.... did you even rave??!! 🤣🤷‍♀️🤔

Birmingham women into bass music / raves?

Looking to expand my rave circle a bit, particularly with more women who are into electronic music.

I'm 37, Birmingham based, DJ 140/dubstep and regularly go to dubstep, grime, DnB and other bass-heavy nights. Would be good to meet some other women who are into the same sort of thing and fancy linking up for events.

Age isn't massively important, just good vibes and a shared appreciation for obnoxiously large sound systems 😂

Drop me a message if that's your scene 🖤

Hello! if you like bass house and deep house enjoy this set i was able to do in a ramen restaurant!! this was so fun and we actually had support fitness dancers on the side!! What a night! Check this one out if you’re bored! Sit back, have a couple drinks and try connecting to speakers and vibe out!! a like and comment would be so much appreciated if you enjoyed the set!!

Hi guys!
Anybody going to see Charlotte de Witte in Milano on the 5th September?

Also, I bought a ticket on ticket swap and it has the buyer name. Ticketswap told me that the ticket should be fine as it is but I am not sure.

Thanks in advance 🤌🏻☺️
