Just a short note that we've added 20 new mixes recently, about half of which are never-before released live sets from parties thrown by the old Madison crew, Eucalyptus Productions.  The rest were donated by Ben Graf who wanted to dedicate his tapes to a friend of his who recently passed away.  

Raving on TwitterWe're also now on Twitter and updating on a regular basis.  If you want to be notified of new mixes as they are uploaded and/or see some rave-tastic links, comments and other nonsense, make sure to follow us there!

All of the new mixes are worth checking out but our favorites are the T-1000 mix, "Live at Upside Down" and the Hipp-E mix "Live at Dexagon." The first is a great example of the '94 hard acid sound while the second is a really smooth mix of jackin' disco house.  The full list of DJs with new mixes is after the jump.

Finally, word of this site keeps growing and growing, which means our bandwidth costs keeps growing and growing.  Welcome to all of the new visitors and massive thanks to everybody that's donate a bit of their hard-earned money to keep this site going.  If you haven't donated yet, please consider doing so!  Without your support we wouldn't be able to keep this site up and running.

Miles Maeda Partnership

Miles Maeda

We are super excited to announce a partnership with one of our all time favorite DJs, Miles Maeda.  In case you missed the news, Miles started a blog last year to share mixes he has done over the years, both new and old, released and unreleased. 

Remastered with wonderful commentary and mostly complete tracklistings, this blog is a treasure and we are excited to be able to co-host these mixes here.  

If you are wondering where to start, I wouldn't worry too much about picking a bad one.  Miles has never released a mix that was anything less than high quality though we're particularly partial to his 1992-1994 mixes, especially the ambient/dub/mellow-techno ones like Savasana and Eve Ryd Ayl If E

Thanks again to Miles for the support and stay tuned for a more traditional update later this month!

Fifty new mixtapes have been added since our last update most of which donated by the awesome Lil' Phil.  Highlights include Richie Hawtin, Gene Farris, Terry Mullan & our first complete Helter Skelter tape pack (Energy '98).   Thanks to everybody who's donated in the past month and, please, if you have a couple bucks to support the site with it would be super appreciated.  


Rock Off, Rave On

We're also looking for new mixtapes to add.  If you are sitting on any cassettes from back in the day that aren't on the site, please contact us!  All tapes sent to us are returned once we are done!

The full list of artists with new tapes this month occurs after the jump.

Happy Holidays!

Santa Raver

Happy holidays from all of us at RaveArchive.com!  

2009 has been a great year for us with over 100 people a day now stopping by to listen to mixtapes, read some classic zines and ask where the flyers are (coming, we promise!). The amount of support that has been shown to the site has been wonderful and we can't thank you enough.  Whether it's donating tapes, contributing via paypal or just participating in the forums, we've been so excited to see the site and community grow. 

One thing we would love to do in 2010 is port the site from the buggy and slow-as-molasses Joomla to the much better supported and faster running Wordpress.  Unfortunately our PHP skills are almost non-existant and we could really use some help with the transition.  So if you're a front-end developer with some freetime to help with debugging and tinkering please contact us!

This year Santa brought us a bunch of new mixes including most of the Fever: Time to Get Ill series by Scott Henry & Charles Feelgood, some killer house mixes by Roy Davis Jr & Angel Alanis as well as some classic Jungle tapes by Brockie, Flux, Kenny Ken and many others. We also have two partnerships planned for early 2010 that should be super exciting to everybody but particularly Chicago area househeads.  Stay tuned for more info next month!  In the meantime the list of all artists with new mixes added since our last update is after the jump.

Thanks so much for the sudden and unbelievable generosity you've shown to the site. The donations we've received since putting the request out has all of us here feeling much better about being able to continue to grow and expand RaveArchive.com without it bankrupting us.  Every little bit helps us immensely so please donate whatever you can!

 SparkleHeart

On to the good stuff.

Flyers:  The Flyers section is coming back shortly!  Komando has promised to have it up by the end of next month.  The database is almost finished being rebuilt and all that's left is integrating it properly into the site.  Keep checking back as we plan on pushing this live the moment it's ready.

New Music:  Almost 50 new mixes are live including 10 Terry Mullan mixes, the rest of Tron's mixtapeography (RIP) & a bunch of classic DJ Dan mixtapes, remastered and donated by the man himself (thx for the head's up Dan!).  Other notable ones include a new Casper mix, a great Phil Free Art 'ardcore mix and a stomping Hyperactive live PA. 

The full list of artists with new mixes are after the jump.
