How to be a Raver: Food of the Gods
Posted on December 10, 2022 15 Comments
Some people think that ravers don’t eat, but this is obviously one of many misconceptions about the rave scene. It goes without saying that to dance for eight hours straight, you need proper fuel for the body. After a series of unlikely coincidences, an international crew of junglists and psytrancers meet up for dinner at […]
Ravers are the Experts: Party Animals
Posted on December 9, 2022 15 Comments
Ravers are friendly people and it goes without saying that no-one loves animals (and aliens) with more intensity than us. Obviously all junglists love lions and other predators (and all creatures from the jungle). True psytrancers only rave in nature, in close contact with all the species of this planet (and other realms). And who […]
How to be a Raver: The Mad Hatters
Posted on December 8, 2022 16 Comments
For obvious playful reasons, you will find ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘Through the Looking-Glass’ references all over the rave-o-sphere, if you know what to look for. At Fusion, there is an actual tea party table somewhere semi-hidden amongst the trees, not super far from Seebühne. Apart from the Hatter himself, no-one wears hats like ravers. […]
How to be a Raver: The Sunglasses Special
Posted on December 2, 2022 21 Comments
So, we have established that ravers are always right and thus probably the most highly evolved species on this planet (along with dolphins, the ravers of the sea). If we, the ravers, were only completely in charge, the future would be so bright. So magnificently bright that we would have to wear sunglasses to stare […]

The picture you see below is an example of what my diary started to look like when I became a dedicated jungle raver in London. It was all so new and exciting and completely outside the reach of the mainstream media , which meant that it all felt like a big, wonderful, magic movement, a […]

Blasts from the Past: The RAW After After Party
Posted on December 8, 2014 5 Comments
Rare snaps from the RAW After After Party, one Monday evening in August 2007. Get ready for a dj-setup on a caterpillar truck. Chilled-out Copenhagen creativity. From a junglist point of view, RAW was very dubsteppy that year, but let’s leave it at that and enjoy the sunset. If that wasn’t oldskool enough for you, […]
The Jungle Diaries: A Junglist on a Mission

Writing a diary (and being serious about it) is like having a life-long conversation with earlier versions of yourself. A very instructive practice. It has its embarassing moments, yes, but it really is the ultimate way of grasping what your life is about. It forces you to take yourself seriously, even at the most ridiculous […]

I stumbled upon jungle sort of by coincidence when I decided to celebrate my birthday by dancing the night away at the Paradise Club in Angel, Islington. This was 1993. 28 days later I went to the Jungle Fever New Year’s Eve party at the Marquee, and that was that. I was blown away. In […]
