October 5th, at 10.30 pm , after pope John-Paul II`s blessing of Lyon from the top of Fourvieres hill, Rendez-Vous Lyon got under way, a concert performed for more than 800,000 people on the banks of the river Saone. Fourvieres hill was ablaze for ninety minutes, fired on by cannons of light, fireworks and images synchronised to music being performed live on the central stage by Jean-Michel Jarre, 60 musicians and 120 choristers. A baroque feast, blending classical and avant-garde, workmanship and high-tech, past and future, Rendez-Vous Lyon will long be remembered as an exceptional event.

It's been five years since techno overlord Sven Väth ascended the shores of party mecca Ibiza on a mission to conquer the small island. As an alternative to the oversaturation of house and trance that were the staples of island-goers' diets, Väth quietly built up a following during the party season with his Cocoon nights at the Amnesia club. This DVD features Sven Vath mixing live at Amnesia.
Richie Hawtin returns to Amnesia for another special edition of Cocoon invites Minus... and once again proceeds to absolutely smash the main floor. This time he's using his new dj setup: 2 macs running traktor scratch and ableton for effects, 4 virtual decks, and a soundbite loop mac.

Open your mind to this moving entertainment experience and intimate portrait of a modern counter-culture that follows its own electronically induced beat.

In the final days of the yuppie decade, the summer of ’89 saw a new type of youth rebellion rip through the cultural landscape, with thousands of young people dancing at illegal Acid House parties in fields and aircraft hangars around the M25. Set against the backdrop of ten years of Thatcherism, it was a benign form of revolution, dubbed the Second Summer of Love – all the ravers wanted was the freedom to party… The rave scene, along with the drug Ecstasy, broke down social barriers and even football hooligans were ‘loved up’, solving a problem the government had never managed to crack. But lurid tabloid headlines and cat-and-mouse games with the police eventually turned the dream sour, as the gangster element moved in at the end of the summer.
