A to Z Blogging Challenge 2015: R is for Rave

The above song is representative of the kind of music that is played at raves.
The following is from the Wikipedia entry.

A rave (from the verb: to rave) is a large party or festival featuring performances by disc jockeys (colloquially called DJs) and occasionally live performers playing electronic music, particularly electronic dance music (EDM). Music played at raves include house, trance, techno, drum and bass, hardcore, hardstyle and other forms of electronic dance music. The music is amplified with a large sound reinforcement system, typically with large subwoofers to produce a deep bass sound. The music is accompanied by laser light shows, projected images, visual effects and smoke machines.

Rave culture originated mostly from acid house music parties in the mid-to-late 1980s in the Chicago area in the United States. After Chicago house artists began experiencing overseas success, it quickly spread to the United Kingdom, Central Europe, Australia and the rest of the United States.

Dva Damas: Nightshade

This tune has a serious old school cool vibe. I could do with a lot more of this! A great find, highly recommended. American musical innovation with a Euro-cool feel.
