never trust Millionaire Hippies, because they’ll nick your sunset music, flog you pyramid schemes and bomb you with wacko conspiracy theories, before the mask finally slips…

ā€œI hate hate, but I love fascismā€

Doesn’t quite have the same ring to it,

His Instagram has been swimming in the conspiracy theories sewer for years, and some of the comments from his ā€œfollowersā€ are really violent and full of hatred. He’s a far Right apologist and should be a pariah in the dance community.

This flyer looks like it was designed by a 7 year old.

Mental age maybe.

I met his years ago in Taiwan just before he did that gig with Jose Padilla, Frankie Knuckles and himself retiring. He seemed lovely at the time but obviously gone south since. Is Terry Farley still sprouting off about ā€œthe moslemsā€ or has that stopped?

Not seen any of that for a very long time thankfully

I didnt go to house nights back in the day, so the only time ive seen Rampling DJ was at a do at Centre Point in 2010. Joey Negro played and that was enjoyable, but you could definitely tell DR had lost his way as a DJ by that point.

Novel if slightly weird venue too. Nice being up on the 30th floor overlooking the city as night became day, but also had a bit of a wedding reception/corporate function feel about it. The smokers weren’t feeling getting the lift down everytime they needed a puff either.

Rampling is certainly no outlier and i’d wager there are many others too who share his thinking, teds, a few ex-hoolies maybe, people who were never as invested as the cooler style kids

Was there a specific point where the acid house tribes ā€˜split’ or was it a gradual drifting apart? The 50-60 somethings into clockwork reunions or ā€˜back to 95’ events seem miles apart from the people of similar age who’d say go to Lowlife or ALFOS.

Not meant to be a snobbish dig, just wondering if there was a political divergence aligned with musical divergence or a wild generalisation?

I’ve had this ā€˜debate’ with a few folk over the years. Can you truly call yourself acid house if you’re right-wing? Seems that there are/were plenty out there who just liked the music, rather than the philosophy. Seems to be mainly the old soul boys that crossed over that have reverted to type, rather than the later generation that fully embraced the lifestyle.

James O’Keefe, what a disgrace. Seriously, the lowest of the low. I have a friend who worked at Twitter and her friend was a victim of one of his ā€˜ops’ - she went on what she assumed was a date off an app and this fucker got her to talk inside baseball about Twitter and there went her career…

Steve Proctor suggesting Danny had NF tatoos early days ( Shoom…) on WOE

Rampling was in the army before he saw the ( rave) light I believe where those sorts of views would have been basic training for most …

Since 89 he’s been a Radio 1 Shitehouse DJ - A pyramid salesman - A eco-property developer - an anti -vaxxer and now a far right apologist

Some might say hes been poorly advised …

I would suggest he’s something slightly more unpleasant .

ā€œDanny Trumplingā€ nails it .

Lost track of the number of soul forums & facebook pages I’ve had to jog on from due to general gammon behaviour - fortunately less prevalent in the acid house community but by no means unheard of, my next door neighbour was at castle Morton but called the behaviour of the activists who pulled down Colstons statue ā€œunacceptable vandalismā€ and another acquaintance who used to run a big jungle night in the south west recently treated me to a transphobic rant.

Lets be honest, there’s a largely pig ignorant right wing majority out there on a lot of cultural issues and it’s seems people drift towards it as they get older, if they didn’t start there in the first place.

Fuck em.
Viva la revolution, viva acid house :fist:t2:
