The 90's were a special time for many of us, whether you were raving in a club, old warehouse unit, illegal house party or in the middle of a woods somewhere, that feeling of a bass line dropping and knowing every single person there was feeling the same vibe as you was incredible. Gurning and grinning with universal love, strangers became your best friends for the night and peace, unity and dancing were at the very heart of old skool rave.

People of all ages and from all walks of life came together, united by the rhythms, the chemicals, the unspoken understanding that, in this space, everyone was welcome.

24 Hour Party People was lovingly created to capture a very specific vibe and moment from that time. That feeling when you had finally got home after partying all night, spent a long morning chilling out with a group of fellow ravers. You finally crawl into bed with a big cup of tea and skin up one last time before trying to sleep. As you look around your room you notice a favourite poster or lava lamp looking just that bit different to how it normally should, you zone out.

The aesthetic of the time was very eclectic but somehow united by core themes, from a polished Haçienda poster, flyers of all shapes and sizes, early VJ sets and even old Amiga demos all were instantly recognisable as rave or dance scene. In these early days, creators cut and pasted flyers in Photoshop or Deluxe Paint. They mixed video graphics using scene software shared on floppy disks. We hope we have captured that vibe here and that you can put on your favourite mix, chill and enjoy.

You can save your own edition for printing (PNG format), just press:
[s] Save current canvas size.
[f] Save for printing as a flyer.
[p] Save for printing as a large poster.

p.s For those wondering about the title of this piece please listen to the track of the same name by the Happy Mondays or watch the film of the same title directed by Michael Winterbottom, we heartily recommend both options. It's worth noting that the rave scene would have been very different if it were not for the Madchester scene, The Haçienda, Factory Records and of course Tony Wilson.

p.p.s This work is dedicated to the love of my life and fellow traveller in space and time Mrs Squiddy.
