In the aftermath of the Bloody Sunday massacre in Derry, Northern Ireland in 1972, the city's youth sought solace and escape in the burgeoning rave culture. This underground movement provided a haven away from the violence and political turmoil that gripped their daily lives. In dimly lit warehouses and abandoned buildings, young people came together to lose themselves in the pulsating rhythms of electronic music, creating a sense of unity and belonging amidst the despair and division that surrounded them. The rave culture provided a much-needed outlet for self-expression and a brief respite from the harsh realities of the conflict.
