21st century rushing raver! Great stuff. We used to celebrate Rave/Jungle/HappyHardcore/Trance/Gabber back then in the 90`s till some years after millenium when the whole clubscene disapeared. Germany was very special about electronic music. There where places where Breakbeat or Happy Hardcore has been the shit. Otherwhere it was Goa or Trance. We could drive from party to party and get the fck out of us. At the age of 40 we still feel young and fresh. So keep it going kids. GoGoRaver Much LVO from Germany
I mean shit at the end of the day there’s only such much you can do with only your legs and feet. Imagine complaining about the shuffle being too similar over the board when you can’t do shit with the shuffle itself. Imagine the Melbourne shuffle but without any hand movements just feet and legs would be boring as hell.
How good were these days without mobile phones! I’m almost certain the drugs were less harmful to your brain & life than the affect of mobile technology… 🎉

None of the stompers who made up the Melbourne Shuffle are going out to raves anymore at the time this footage was taken. It was invented in 1990 when New Jack dancing and stomping crossed over at clubs like Commerce, Maze, Chevron, Amadeus and Chasers. I was 1 of the first group of stompers to start doing it & we didn't know we were shuffling , it was just stomping & just how dancing evolved and it wasn't coined Melbourne Shuffle till 20 years after it started.
Pretty much yeah - I just missed the last night Maze@Commerce Club was open (members only that night eh), but went religiously to Pure every Friday for the next year and a half. As well as a lot of other places, but Pure was the best. Even danced in some club fashion shows for a friend who was making clothes. We called it "stomping" and ourselves "stompers" (not ravers, at least, not in my group of friends), and it was my obsession at that time. I see more Nothern Soul influences (from the UK Northern Soul scene in the 60s) in stomping than anything else, but sure things like the running man did get incorporated. And I did hear the term "Melbourne shuffle" in the late 90s...my guess is once trance and techno were being played at 140+bpm, the 'stomping' motion had to be reduced to a 'shuffle' just to keep up and not blow a gasket. One time I stomped to jungle around '93 and fit as I was, there's no way you could do that for more than a minute or two. Agreed, I only saw glimpses of our OG style in this vid...but that's what happened to the scene - everything got faster and harder.
So what? Make a video on the early stomping style.... and remember that stomping was already a term from the 60s and the style you started doing in 90 had roots before you. Pretty sad if No One from those days isn't dancing anymore but I don't believe it. Whinge fukn whinge
2000-2010 were the best years of the candy raver I've seen people in this video that I knew from back in the day and they all looked older than I remembered haha, ;) --40 years old with 3 kids now, the lucky ones retired, RiP to the ones that didn't make it, I miss it with all my soulBRING BACK KRYAL CASTLE 🤘 #3D NIGHT CLUB #BASS STATION #HARD KANDY #PHD #BUBBLE #GODS KITCHEN #EARTHCORE
quick question what was it called back then .? the running man .?? cause when i was young teen in 09-13 it was called malaysian shuffle or melbourne shuffle & everyone was doing it broo , well still are when the rave pops out or an event but that shit takes me back to soo much good memories with the homies making videos lol
The documentary in itself is already called 'Melbourne Shuffle' go figure lol. In terms of the naming itself, Malaysian Shuffle came about around the mid 2000s when returning students from Melbourne brought in the dance to local underground clubs. Had the opportunity to experience the best of both sides in its heyday, Good times. Keep rocking man.
In 1989/90 it was called "stomping" and was more dynamic in terms of the feet lifting and other creative movements. The DJs were initially playing at about 125bpms, but after techno got faster and trance became massive that went up to 140+, so to keep up dancers had to generally keep movements more minimal...and that was called "shuffling". Probably sometime in the mid 90s. Source: I started dancing in 1990, mostly danced rather than anything else when I was out, also did some rave wear fashion shows too.
Best old school kandy vid by far, just the general footage of 1 of many nights there. No stadged try hard showboating shuffling shit stackers. Just people off their dials having a blast. Good times
Bubble, Hard Kandy, Bass Station, 3D, Evolution, PHD, Altitude, HSD all contributed to the amazing late 90's - 2000's golden era of hardtrance, hardstyle and the Melbourne Shuffle
Who needs a club when you have the streets of melbourne lol, i was one generation short of experiencing such euphoria, never missed out on the quality bickies though
He didn't...not taking anything away from him, I'm sure he made an impression, but a group of English lads moved to Melbourne around 1989, they brought it with them. It's in the doco itself, as recounted by one of Melbourne's main techno djs Richie Rich. And before that the steps themselves evolved out of the Nothern Soul scene in the UK.
