The far out vid is comical. I always wanted a sub bass jacket though.
LOL 99% of that video is shot with in a 5 mile radius of their record shop in Romford 🙂
(although would still have cost a bit to hire an edit suite back in 1991 and edit to music, you had to do this manually with tape or even film as no NLE suites back then!, nowadays you can do this in seconds with a bog standard windows PC, but it was a proper mission until the late 1990s)
you couldn’t get away with filming those sequences on Romford high street now though; the cops wouldn’t allow it without pre-booking (as you’d have to hold up the traffic for safety) and it would probably be essential to have them there anyway to stop the rudes trying to jack your crews camera kit instead of all those kids dancing along…
one thought though – many of the people uploading and commenting are from outside Britain
IMO at one point UK dance music was surely a bigger movement than Britpop – even often managing to break through to the charts without compromising too much musical integrity…
but it was essentially vilified and pushed back into the gutter by the anti-fun movement….
