Jungle Feelings: The Weird Faces Special – Extended Mix
Posted on December 11, 2022 13 Comments
Ravers are effortlessly good-looking because of their glowing I-have-danced-all-day-in-the-sun skin, their beaming eyes and their positive attitude towards life. But not in a vain way. Vanity (or pride, if you want) is one of the 7 deadly sins, as anyone who has seen David Fincher’s “Se7en” from 1995 might remember. Or read Dante’s The Divine […]
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

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. […]
Ravers are the Experts: Dancefloors Everywhere
Posted on December 7, 2022 17 Comments
Proper ravers make the best dance floors in the world, and everywhere: From tiny dance floors in livings rooms and secret dance floors in the forests to cosmic dance portals for tens of thousands of people like The Dance Temple at Boom or Turmbühne at Fusion. Since I started raving, all other dance floors lost […]
How to be a Raver: The Sunglasses Special

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 […]

Oooooh, do you remember those joyous days of the past, where you could go to paradise regularly and have the time of your life (guaranteed) with 70.000 other people? Crazy stuff happened back then, you wouldn’t believe… Sometimes people drank from the same bottle. Aaaaaah, the good ol’ days where people just pressed their faces […]

Posted on December 5, 2015 13 Comments
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 […]

Posted on December 10, 2014 21 Comments
We are going deep underground today, somewhere hidden, where pigs, bottles of rum and graffiti go to die. After a bit of mixing and blending, everything gets reborn in new forms. This is the 6th anniversary of Ohoi! There are lots of presents and give-aways in the photos, but do not feel left out. There […]
