Party: Raving Nightmare – Laws Unwritten
Location: Turbinenhalle Oberhausen, Germany
Date: 2009-04-05


The year 2009 is the anniversary year of the Raving Nightmare concept. For 15 years this concept has withstand the ups & downs in the hardcore scene. This milestone gives UHM a occasion to celebrate this 15 year anniversary in a appropriate way. For this German edition we enter a new and virgin territory. After the blazing Dutch 2008 edition we decided to add a third area to this years Dutch edition. Another thing to expect is the release of a 3-DVD box compilation with (archive)video footage of the Raving Nightmare concept from the 1995-2008 period.

Like past editions the first half of 2009 will be dominated by the German edition of Raving Nightmare. Ever since 2004 succesful German editions took place. From sold-out editions in Cologne(ex Tarm Center 2004-2007) toward a sold-out Turbinenhalle in Oberhausen 2008 the concept showed its expansion. In 2009 the 15th Anniversary of the concept will be celebrated in an even spectacular surrounding, a location which has been a goal for the organization from day 1!. It was a heavy task to tie the ends for this location. After many hours of painstaking work the okay reached us halfway 2008, and the preparations were initiated.
On 04-04-2009 UHM proudly presents:
Raving Nightmare – Laws Unwritten at the König Pilsener Arena in Oberhausen (DE).

Hamburg is the second biggest Town in Germany, with a port just a big smaller than rotterdam.
But Hardcore Scene is a lot smaller, after the fallasleep from Nordcore there is just Team Suizid left.
Earlier there have been a very famous club called The Box, and artists like Marc Acardipane from Frankfurt settled down in Hamburg and organized big Resident E events. Now almost everything slowed down but rumors say Hardcore is getting back somehow to Hamburg

Berlin still has an important roll in the international Hardcore Scene,
artist like XOL DOG 400 or Gabber Front Berlin live there and even it is the home of the Famous Fuckparade
and has been the home of the Hardest club on Earth "Bunker Berlin"

Well Den Haag the Capital of the Netherlands even brought some big Hardcore Artist,
like Charly Lownoise and Mental Theo or The Darkraver, but there has never been a that big Party Scene in den Haag like in Rotterdam or Amsterdam.

Amsterdam was always in a competition to be the most Important Town in Hardcore Scene,
ID & T have their Headqauter in Amsterdam and they even had a lot of important Artists
like Chosen Few or Technohead

Rotterdam is called the Capital of Hardcore, they have the most important labes and artists over there.
Midtown.nl is the worlds biggest Hardcore Publisher ans Shop, they have even stores in Amsterdam and den Haag. Famous Artists from Rotterdam are Neophyte, DJ Paul, Rob & Mc Joe
well known parties are A Nightmare in Rotteram or Hardcore 4 Life

Munich the third biggest city of Germany, located in the south and capital of the state called Bayern.
