Take a trip with 11 rave clips

Down the rabbit hole we go...

Everything was better back in the day, right?!

Well, maybe not. But it's worth double checking how things did go down decades ago every once in a while. You know, just for that warm, smudgy, nostalgic glow.

Who wouldn't get psyched to go partying at the weekend by archival footage of a young Carl Cox absolutely smashing three decks to bits or a full Bagley's going bug-eyed mental one New Year's Eve.

This is basically the Jamie xx album but in grainey, blown-out Youtube footage mode. You get to see Guetta like you've never seen him before, too.

Bagley's goes off

Straight back to '96 with this NYE footage taken from beloved London club Bagley's. The King Cross venue has gone down in UK dance music history and was one of a number of clubs that made the area a nightlife hotspot before the forces of gentrification swept them into the annals of time. If you like the above, as well as strobe-lit clips like this, but want a bit more emotion, try taking your older cousin or wayward aunty out for a pint because everyone of a certain age and calibre has a Bagley's story to tell.
