Equinox - Rave New World (C4, 1994, 60 mins)

(3 votes, average 4.67 out of 5)



Documentary focusing on the effects of Ecstasy and its influence on club culture. This documentary also looks at lighting and video technologies that are used to enhance the rave/clubbing experience.  This programme puts the rave-culture phenomenon of the nineties under the microscope. With an estimated half-million young Britons immersing themselves in the world of insistent rhythms, lurid visuals and frenzied modes of self-expression every weekend, rave is no longer an underground fad. The programme traces the roots of rave, documents the dangers of the drug Ecstasy - and some of its possible benefits when used in psychotherapy - and illustrates how the movement has helped make music technology more accessible.
