Yeah, went to a few of these when I was backpacking around Queensland. Was a bit of a different vibe than this with literally just a clearing in the bush with a pond, a dj hut with decks and a couple of pa speakers. A butterfly as large as a crow landed on my arm and was just chilling. To this day I don't know if it was real or not. I'm f'n glad there weren't any cameras there
Former early 90's techno DJ. Still love what is being produced now and the scene itself, but I must say I'd fail to perform for this crowd. Music, not drugs. These are a different breed!!
I feel like Kiwis are the sensible and stable brother that everyone tends to like, while Aussies are the brother that dropped out of school and just gets loose at every opportunity
I know what you mean as Kiwis tend to be pretty chill and sort of grounded whereas most young Aussie blokes are mad cunts. In saying that, I definitely wasn't a "stable and sensible" brother at all when I was there. When in Rome, as they say. :p
I have mixed feelings about this. Its kind of frustrating they let you film this tbh. Doofs are meant to be a place of acceptance and free of judgement where you can do what you want and be you and I feel like filming these people in their vulnerable states kind of violates that side of the culture. Filming at doofs like this is normally very frowned upon because it shatters that safety from judgement from the outside world. Sure these guys consented in their intoxicated state but its not really a good look and I am sure some of them wouldn't be happy with how they have been portrayed. This isn't just a public nightclub, this is a place where the etiquette and culture should be respected. Anyway great vid lads!
Are you for REAL! These p3ople are degenerates. How onearh are they vulnerable . How can you possibly use the word vulnerable to describe these morons. Who are doing this stupidity of their own free will. What about the poor taxpayers who have to pay for theses degenerates. When the need medical care!!
I was about to comment the same! Was nice to see a peaceful festival but unless consent was obtained when the attendees were completely sober, this shouldn’t have been posted on the internet. Hopefully all people shown gave their consent to be filmed in their vulnerable states.
I love DOI too, but due to the extra potency it's often more viable to smuggle DOC. 2mg will have you blasted for like 18 hours but it's so much more comfortable than the average 5HT2a antagonist
Fun for a visit, recommended at least once on the journey of life, but most of them stayed way too long and are just there for the drugs. I don't know how anyone can "party" on LSD it's such a powerful drug that completely reshapes what you thought reality was and who you are.
I do these cous i love getting down to psytrance and getting fried on acid occasionally. I try and bring my positive attitude and give free hugs where I can. Its not for everyone but I subjectively have never had a bad time and tip my hat to the hard work that goes into bringing a good doof together. Hope the oz doof train steams on happily into the future, its a worthy cause!
looks like a lot of fun. man I remember when i was in australia and enyoid being with the locals. They invited me to doofs and i had the time of my life. sad to see that there is a big stigma in australia around this parties. I lough so much and man those are the nicest people iv met. Just let them party they are lovely.
I know they are showing people on drugs in this video. But these types of events not everyone goes just for drugs. Some of us just go for the music/community & atmosphere. I myself love going to music event sober and let the hype of the event do the rest
My step-dad tells me about how he went to bush doofs in the 90s/00s completely sober, and would be dancing 'til sunrise while cookers were asking him how the hell he was going without any drugs.
As an old doof raver from the 90s it's nice to see people having a good time outdoors in nature but it's sad to see lots of lost people taking way too many drugs. As the song says.... "The drugs don't work, they just make you worse and I'll know I'll see your face again"
Sensacional, guys. Great job! So many friends in the video, miss Byron's doof. Luckly I'm coming and playing in one down there this Saturday. If you guys are still around, come n have a boggie.
Psychedelics are great, one time I was trippin on too much acid and I was staring at a fire pit and the fire pit turned into a mini world with little people and buildings, that was 2 years ago and it's such an experience to remember. would love to try out the psilocybin mushrooms next, just don't know where to get them, so hard to come by
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it's just so hard to source out here.
Had some magical acid out in Cape tribulation at a party .was a beautiful night..very good acid...best I've ever had out of plenty of times...was one great night...we had pointy ears...smiles that went from temple to temple.....saw magic all over the show ..and the ozzys are a great bunch ..miss that place...nimbin was pretty cool also ..had a a ball
It's near Kempsey. That service center they were at with the caltex and ampol is located on the south bound lane of the southern Kempsey entrance. I would say either some towards crescent head or close by.
im not that surprised i know some of the dj's and its close to where i live. grew up doofing. Its changed so much, but good to see some old crew there but even better to see people have moved on with their lives as well and i only seen a few people i know. shit gets real sad in ya 30s!
Love it how the vid makers had a night by 12am. I'm guessing DOI gotta clock off & doof on at some point. Hope youse had a good time w the trees n the freaks. 🎉 There's other doofs that are more techno party too. Try all the flavours guys! ✨🦄🍱🌈
the Psy scene has changed a lot , it used to be just acid , dope ,alcohol ,, dmt , mushies etc now you you have ice and other crap , people are more angry , our crew use to have parties in the valley and where ever we went to parties in Vic we would allways catch up with people we knew ,those were the days of Oz trance on the comp ,, Royal doof in june ,, tribadelic gathering ,around december , and Rainbow in feb and lets not forget the winter and summer solsters ,and our , dark river doof parties,,, yea times were busy then ,always a party to go to , never any trouble,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,i still listen to tunes ,,infected mushroom , GMS , void , Skazi etc etc ,,,,,those were the days
Why should that make you angry? Looking at 30 second clips of people, most of these people probably have jobs, u can't just look at a short clip and judge someone completely

How have I never heard about this as an aussie.
"Nah, I mainly just get lit and forget about the bitchesss" 😂

my 1st doof there was this old dude dressed as a wizard who gave heaps of ppl lifts to the closest train station, god bless that fella
Out of all places I would not appreciate getting filmed and interviewed is a bush doof

So intresting listening to blokes off their faces so relatable and almost feels like they know things normal people cant understand
Got a time stamp? It all just sounded like random spiritual dribble to me lol
Ya reckon?
“Almost”…
@@reverse_thursday you have to relax and let go off your judgement to hear it

Never been a more accurate capture of the energy of a doof in full swing.

@@carolbrady658No one said they were, but okay.
Me too but I appreciate the spirit of what they're doing... May the doof keep on doofin
This is reality alright. Got heavy nostalgia of Doof Dread.
ooooffff the ending transition, to good

It’s cause they’re Aussies lmao, no one goes harder
psytrance, aint a doof other wise.
shaman had the drug and the dance...same goes dick nose
Probably mix it with some Lilly for a boost
Who's to say you shouldn't party on LSD? I had some of the most powerful experiences of my life on high doses at raves.
Farrrr out some of those people were cooookkked. Love it
No shit cunt it's a doof
This is the most accurate depiction of a bush doof!!!
Incredible video xx
This is intriguing, but tragic none the less.
Why? It's just people having fun, and not hurting anybody
This is some of the best docu content on RUclips
The transition at the end though
Went to some mean illegal raves in chch in the early 2000s🎉 always great energy and no bs

It’s awesome to see how much Channel 5 News is being replicated across the globe. The straight face from interviewer and all
This is way better than channel 5 news
@Lachlan McDonald and less rapey
channel 5 wasnt the first to do a documentary like this so sheltered. Every interviewer keeps a straight face
Andrew has always said he was influenced by the likes of Louie Theroux so I think it’s just a continuation of that vein of journalism.
This took me back... so many amazing doofs and amazing people!
my favourite kiwi lads are back again

The history of culture is written in many ways. 🙏🏼👌🏼✨
