10 seconds in and I'm already laughing out loud at how ridiculous the British are. Your most significant cultural export??? Fuck, you got all of it from Belgium. Your club scene is and was pitiful compared to ours and we're only the size of greater London.

It seems to be a young persons lifestyle. The music reflects that and it's not the quality of the 70's scene. Where have all the adults gone?

Parts of this amuse me because in the 80s here in Chicago house music is what we were dancing to, and serious dancers were everywhere. You didn’t go to the clubs to be beautiful you went to dance hardcore

In chicago it was and is clubs a bit less now. From the Green Mill jazz club to the gay bathhouses this is where two kinds of music grew up. Three, jazz blues and techno, or house. We didnt call it anything just techno, then jungle came in 91 from london over new york straight to chicago. We made our own version of this too. Then the undergrand clubs filled with people from trax recording wax trax, like al jorgenson and ministry came out of my neighborhood in chicago at the same time the 80s and 90s was it here. Total creativity musically and fashion for a short time for some as some lasted forever.

David Getta (AKA David Faker) is the biggest Fake DJ ever: DJing live with the desks unplugged, prerecorded sessions, shows under the (too much) influence, high as the stars in his eyes, ghost producers... A fraud itself.

Great show and was nice to watch, just seeing it now. I do not necessarily agree that with the whole US to UK back to US thing. Here in the US, techno and house was taking off in the early 90's and we had our own warehouse party scene. We also had super clubs in the 90's. I was big into the DC/Baltimore dance scene in the early 90's with clubs like Buzz & Fever and festivals after the warehouse parties started to get busted too early. It was always there, just not mainstream. Very nice show and loved that New Order was mentioned a couple of times.

This has great content but the packaging - poor Idris! - is a bit cringe, and it tells the story all mixed up: UK garage then M25 raves? 😂 Dance music really needs a proper documentary telling the whole history, anyone out there know one? Compared to all the stuff out there about punk and Britpop

It doesn't start well. Right in the intro, this being a British program, Elba says that "clubbing is the most significant British cultural export". Except that those who started the British club scene, namely absolute geniuses like Tony Wilson and Rob Gretton, always freely stated that they had imported it from Detroit and New York.
@martinskovpoulsen27369 ай бұрын
Yeah, a place like Studio 54 in New York in the 70's was a disco nightclub so most def clubbing isn't a British invention

The most uneduceted scene in the world is in Norway.those guys have no clue how it all started..They were convicing me that techno and house were born in Iibiza..Most of them have no idea who is Juan Atkins, Kevin Sandrson, Derick May etc....the worst thing is that some of them are making living out of it...
