I miss those days sooooo much. My friend just went for the first time and of course was disappointed. I sent her this video to show her that the legend of full moon really existed
@@funkotron9198 - And Koh Tao, Koh Phi Phi, Koh Lanta & Koh Chang. No one is denying there is still magic in the geography, and the Thai people.....BUT, development, commerce, neatly packaged tourism & poorly traveled wankers have changed things. The bohemian, relaxed hedonism, & like-minded backpacker lifestyle days are long gone. The mid-90s is last time I saw any semblance of it still intact.
@@floordoctor I first travelled to Thailand in 1993 and back then I thought it was ridiculously touristy and crowded with mass tourism having previously mostly travelled in Latin America which had very few travellers then. Now of course I laugh at my innocence as all those places are totally overrun with people. It used to be so fantastically cheap and exotic to travel in those places. I miss those years but I still enjoy travelling and love Thailand as much as ever :)
@@floordoctor Perfect description. Is there anywhere in Thailand wen can party like this? Perhaps a smaller more intimate version of the Full Moon Party?
@@boris9331 Of course, but no one is organizing parties like that anymore that I know of, personally. The whole thing lines up with what happened everywhere. The commercialization of everything is the primary driver. Underground rave culture died in the 90s. Whatever was left in the early 2000s - was gone completely globally by 2003. People my age (49 yo), and older, have aborted those missions...to do other things while traveling. Festival culture has consumed the youth, and Full Moon Party followed suit. Not sure how anyone can call that "fun" these days.
@@saroltamonspart-dancemusic5583 i was resident dj in backyard from about 2009-2014. i think i finally met backyard dave about 2015 in hadrin, he was just chilling. maybe it wasn't him but it was someone who was there in those original days. talking about bringing over vinyl from manchester
@kaonashicom I remember some of DIY collective were there in the early 90s. I remember when I first went in 93 and people were talking about Danny Rampling having to pay huge amounts of duty on his records on the way over. Just dancefloor talk so who knows!
Thank you for this .... first time was 89 then took me until '97 to get back and then I stayed for 4 1/2 months (Thong Nai Pan with monthly vigils to Haad Rin)
@@mitchmitchell9730 Yep! That's him! Those were the days! And Acid Paul at 3:19. And Pat (Paradise Bungalow owner today) at 2:58. And now I also have found my travelling friend Ola Andersson at 4:31!!!
Great time, my first was in 1989 🙏, and I still going to Samui and phangan. 👍👍

Happy, happy days.what fun.xx
Good old days….
Thank you for the memories Anders!
You are welcome!
I was there! Oh yeah!
Pure Magic was there for most of 91-94. The island still has Magic and i'm still here.
Was the golden age back then, Koh Samui too.

93/94 94 may have been a good years for full moon party. Hard/Goa Trance were great during that time.
I've been listening recently to 'BackYard Dave' on, ''House of Honey Media Player'' He's still gets my hands up in the air...
got a link?
