Oh gawd. I think when I was like 15 this is what I thought all nightclubs were like.

lol - I think I've gotten a little obsessed with this, I've watched that Oakenfold Rocks video a few times in a row.

Aging DJs and their fans.

The list of venues on that promo Perfecto video fills me with sort of sadness and curiosity.

Yeah, they all seem fictional, like from the background of a comic book.

it always amuses me that his Movement 98 project has been airbrushed out of his history. In 1990, Oaky announced that house music was over and it was time to start a campaign for djs to play music under 100bpm again, hence his Movement 98 project and subsequent releases. The winds obviously didn't blow in his favour!
