Naturally, this brings up an important question, namely…do you think that there’s a chance that these great artists are onto something here?

Answer: YES! YES!! YES!!!

So, here’s another question: since these guys are onto something, and since the DANCEFLOOR THUNDERSTORM Triple Holiday Blowout sale is taking place right now…don’t you think that it’s time you took advantage of some BIG savings (reduced price, FREE SHIPPING and a BONUS iBooks sequel!) by ordering a copy of this amazing book for yourself or a friend?

Again, YES! YES!! YES!!!

And, one last question: do you want your book to arrive late because you didn’t order before the holiday crush?

NO! NO!! NO!!!

DJs -THEN & NOW, Week 7: RICHIE HAWTIN!

Whoo-whee! A big apology to  everyone for last week’s lack of a “DJs: Then & Now” segment…we were quite honestly all wrapped up in the social media launch of our newest book project THE RAVER STORIES PROJECT. This is 5150’s next major book project, and so understandably some other things had to take a temporary back seat. But guess what–WE’RE BACK! And this time we’ve got someone really special for you on today’s Throwback Thursday! It’s the techno master himself, RICHIE HAWTIN!

That 1999 shot of Richie was taken at the world-famous Viper Room on the Sunset Strip, when the great old club Atmosphere was in there. This was at the height of his Plastikman era. The one on the right is Richie not quite showing off his PLAYdifferently mixer at Sound in Hollywood. As you can see, putting the razor away can make a world of difference.

Richie appears a couple of times in the pages of DANCEFLOOR THUNDERSTORM, by the way…just thought we’d point that out…

And while we’ve got you here, we really do want to draw your attention to THE RAVER STORIES PROJECT. It’s going to be a fantastic collection of amazing raving nights, as written by the people who experienced them…the ravers themselves! In other words, this is going to be the first book about ravers, by ravers. If you haven’t noticed on social media already, we’ve just put out a Call For Submissions in the rave community, and the initial response has been nothing short of fantastic. Dozens of electronic music fans have already inquired about how to contribute their favorite rave memories to the project, and once our official press release goes out soon, we expect to see a lot more.

We have a saying here at 5150: “Every raver has a story”, and this is the foundation of THE RAVER STORIES PROJECT, because it’s true! Every raver really does have a story, whether it’s about their first rave, or when they saw their favorite DJ spin, or when they found their significant raving other, or when Daft Punk conquered Coachella. It’s the amazing experiences that people go through that drives the rave scene in the first place, and we want to spotlight this long-neglected aspect of our wonderful community.

So yes, we really want to read what you have to say. Go to www.raverstoriesproject.com for full details!

And SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!!!

LOOK AT THIS!!! The techno god Richie Hawtin is so happy to have his copy of “DANCEFLOOR THUNDERSTORM“! And hey, why not? After all, he rocked the rave scene back in the day and he has two KILLER pictures in the book! When I showed Richie the pictures of him spinning back in his Plastikman era, he was like, “Oh my GOD.” Now, you can take that however way you want…I personally like to think that he was gobsmacked by the images, but then again I’m biased 😉

Yeah, like this one. Anyone care to guess what party this was?
