Rez was said to have Started in Newcastle in North East England. Newcastle and Scotland shared the same scenes. Really I think parts of NE England should be given to Scotland & you can get from Edinburgh to Newcastle by train within the hour.

Wikipedia states the Scottish scene died when rez did in 1997. By that time people like Hixxy had invaded Scotland while some of Scotland's biggest names such as Scott Brown & Marc Smith where playing in England.



No you can't.

I live in Middlesbrough, North East, Whoop Whoop! and back in the day all I listened to was scottish hardcore, that is all there was around here, and loved it. Ultrasonic, Ultimate Buzz, Scott Brown, Marc Smith, TTF, QFX oh so many to mention.

No, you really can't. Edinburgh to Newcastle is 90mins at best. Edinburgh -> Newcastle is North-South down the east coast through Berwick so cross country is not going to help

its just down to what your preferences are isnt it???


im in teesside northeast and our scene was started on really old acid house which moved onto italian dance or eurodance untill the the faster (scottish) stuff came through, come to think of it the vast vast majority of the choonz in our rave scene through the 90's were scottish labels, atrists etc....then odd southern ones, some of which were again scottish artists!!! we had a long tradition of all nighters, the venue and the colosseum being the biggest and looking at the flyers it was overan with scottish pa's dj's week in week out and the colosseum itself would draw scots and ppl frmo everywhere in the northeast in on a weekly basis

never liked the old breakbeaty stuff, just hardcore or bouncy techno, shoop, evolution, twisted, screwdriver, dwarf, babyboom, clubscene aswell as the faster italian stuff.

no idea how it was down south but the rez (yes it did start in the north east) and fantazia were stupendously huge, and the style of music means it would always get my vote. but its different strokes for different folks isnt it

Sharkey & Marc Smith started it in 1996 with The Truth/Oh no! I belive theis to be the first 'British' Hardcore tune but I could be wrong.

Off topic - but I wish Marc Smith would get his arse in gear & join up with the forces in Freeform which are Kevin Energy & Sharkey, where he belongs....

I don't know why some of you are so hard on smoogie. Nothing wrong with having passion for music. A lot of those tunes he posted I'm still trying to hunt down.
Scottish rave scene probably was as big as the English scene back in the day. Rezerrection events had huge turnouts. I heard there was actually a bit of friendly rivalry between the two scenes.
