Your Thoughts On New/Neu Rave Stylings?

[Aotearoa]

Also has this infiltrated the States yet...?

[englandmj7]

You mean like this:

[onemancult]

i just cried. thank you, england. just thank you.

[Begåvningsreserven]

why is he wearing a sleeping bag with pee on it?

[Aotearoa]

Haha nope!

I'm talking about the current trend in London. Check the latest i-D for a preview of what I'm referring to.

[thelion1856]

uhhhhh yeah....it did infiltrate the states..........8 to 7 fucking yearS ago! like 1998-99!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where are you located? The amazon? how are u getting your internet connection? just curious.

[Aotearoa]

Thanks for your input lion (sarcasm)

If you look in the subject title you will see the words NEW and NEU. I'm not talking about rave from the 90s.

I'm talking about the Klaxons etc.

Check WIKIPEDIA link.

Found an image on the i-D site from oct issue :

Awesome, like wearing Sonic the Hedgehog costumes and stuff? You would get so much ecstasy-laden euro-poon........

...just messing dude; I have never heard of this new "style" before.......

why is he wearing a sleeping bag with pee on it?

Um, don't you know? When you are on E peeing on yourself feels fucking awesome.

[onemancult]

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH nowwww I get it.

I think Carri Mundane and Cassetteplaya are fucking tops, but I didn't think that her work was so closely associated with the neu rave scene in london. I thought it more of a part of the resurgence of clubkid culture in the UK, although, not knowing what music's being played in the clubs over there, I guess I thought too soon.

The look hasn't hit the states yet, unfortunately. I want to pick up some Cassetteplaya stuff but I'm not sure if there's anywhere online to do so that ships to the US...

Carri Mundane, by the by, is the chick responsible for MIA's hypercolorful, geometric shapefuck wardrobe.

[advancedart]

I'm listening to rave music myself but their fashion style is almost as bad as the hideous baggy hip hop style some sick kids try to imitate

[onemancult]

Cassette Playa.

[Carl]

That stuff looks suprisingly like the "streetwear" kids i saw this summer in NYC.

I can see that perhaps in the prevailing love of allover prints and bright colors, but comparing someone in a neon Bape hoody to this stuff doesn't really fit in my head.

Cassette Playa's a little too out-there for the streetwear kids in NYC, they'll just think it's "gay white people shit".

[2000dB]

That sweater is "great" and so are the painted acid wash jeans

[darkanimal]

[minya]

Hahaha, this is surreal.

[goldengloves]

....some people will do anything for thier 15 minutes....Those clothes look like someone took a box of legos and spilled them all over the place. Thier use of cardboard is really ingenious though...haha.

I haven't seen it over here in the states yet but I don't really go to raves and whip around glow sticks while blowing every brain cell out of my skull with acid...

[Westbrook]

I couldn't see myself wearing that stuff for any reason, but I have to say, the idea of being at a huge party with hundreds of people dressed like that sounds pretty wild.

I mean come on, if you can forget about being "stylish" for 5 seconds, doesn't it kind of sound like fun? It's like the craziest fucking halloween party you've never been to.

[jiomitori]

People would buy Dior x Nomi shoulder pads

[Aotearoa]

Onemancult, Cassetteplaya is Mundanes label.

Edit*

Slap me for not fully reading your response. I assume you were referring to her on her own as stylist and then the label as a seperate entity.

[onemancult]

blowing every brain cell out of my skull with acid...

maybe you should; works wonders, actually.

With all due respect, it's not a resurgence of club kid culture. It's a resurgence of Acid House, which happened from 1986-1989 in the UK and predates the club kids of NYC.

[Guest jmatsu]

clothing reminds me of tackier bernhard willhelm, henrik v., jeremy scott.

beside the klaxons, what other artists are by your standards considered part of this phenomenon (genuinely interested)? thank you.

[mr fluffernutter]

...the ravers I know... I don't think they would wear that shit. They want something cheap so they can afford more drugs, that stuff looks expensive.

point well taken, although, i did not necessarily mean to reference NYC's 'clubkid' culture.

what artists are being played currently in the uk club scene that's been getting so much attention recently? is it a genuine update on acid house music, or is it just that era's style that is being revamped?

[Icarus]

Psssh, Forcefield did it years ago. This isn't neu-rave, this is neu-Fort.

[jpgm]

i enjoyed reading the spread in this month's iD. but seriously....this stuff is shite!

[werdtoyourmoms]

this is some ibiza ketamine viagra e steez ! HOLLER.

i would maybe buy a scarf like that stuff.
