The Original Old Skool Rave Tape Archive.

Rave Archive UK is an independent project dedicated to preserving, digitising and sharing the history and sounds of UK rave culture.

Built since 2008, the archive now contains 35,000+ recordings, from original cassette tapes and radio recordings to live sets and digital collections spanning decades of underground dance music.

Here you'll find thousands of sets covering Acid House, Old Skool, Hardcore, Jungle, Drum & Bass, Happy Hardcore, Garage and more, featuring legendary events, clubs, DJs and MCs alongside rare recordings increasingly difficult to find elsewhere.

Recordings are organised into playlists by event, year, DJ and MC to make the archive easy to explore.

This isn't a vanity project. It's a heritage project.
