: : I think the bad press surrounding the drugs had a lot to do with the scene dying out. Plus the scene is changing and the youngsters of today maybe wanting to do something new!!

: I think the bad press didnt do that much damage to the scene cos those that were doing it didnt care about that, or should I say I didnt know anyone who cared.
: I personally believe we all just grew up and when the scene changed we left in droves.
: There isnt that much of a take up amongst youngsters these days, cos the music isnt new, its nothing special these days. There aren't thousands of raves a year now, there are maybe a hundred if that. If you heard a tape of raindance now it would probably be all remixes of old tunes. no originality equals boring...
: I agree that the law did their best, but it was nothing to do with the law, if the music kept its originality the scene would still be strong..
