Groove (2000)

This movie totally rocks it is the one movie which shows the scene for what it is. Not a nightmare of crime or squalor but an uplifting representation of the scene at the time. The movies music is one of the major selling points as it goes thorough quite a spectrum of house tunes also chucking in some drum and base which might date the movie a little bit. When the house messiah John Digweed turns up for the final set of the night the movie truly hits it peak. The acting is fine and believable. Admitedly the movie crams a lot of different house stereotypes into the mix some convincing and others not. But Im from the British scene so there could be cultural differences. Anyhow If your interested in the early house movement check this movie right out.

Crazy picture about a group who go to all manner of effort to put on techno dance parties in abandoned buildings. The spaced out dancers [for want of a better word] were entertained for several hours by a succession of DJ's, each with his/her own collection of tunes. Since the law was being broken to hold the event things didn't go smoothly all night, however everyone seemed to take it in stride. Interesting look a portion of a degenerate generation whose sole intent is to have a good time.

I used to be into the rave scene myself, so i'm pretty familiar with the subject, and i thought the movie was pretty entertainiing. If you're a trance addict, or used to be, this'll give you a little flashback to the times you experienced in the club, those moments when the DJ puts on a track that just gets the place jumping and blows your mind. The dancefloor shots were done pretty well(although i could've done without the little slo-mo during Digweed's set), and the soundtrack is great, very well selected. If you dont know much about the trance scene, this is a nice intro to what being at a rave is like, but dont take it as a guide, because the actual rave/candykid/PLUR scene is dying out and shifting to the more commercial setting. The music is still around, and still great, but it is no longer as underground as it used to be even 4-5 years ago. Anyway, nice little movie,despite some plotholes and some little things that could have been done a bit better, it keeps your attention, and not a waste of time. Digweed just rocks the house during his set, especially with Heaven Scent.

(New Memberness)This movie rules and I don't know why everyone has a problem with it. It is the little things that makes movies aweosme and this movie has plenty. PLENTY. So what if the story is SUPER ORIGINAL the way it is portrayed is great. And if you don't want a completley story driven movie then check out Go but Groove is the greatest. And Better living rules too, i'm not bad talking it or anything.
