The document discusses the rise of rave culture in the UK in the late 1980s. Some key points:
1) Raves originated in the US and were imported to the UK in 1988, taking place in secret rural locations to avoid police intervention.
2) Raves featured new electronic music styles around 120 beats per minute and were strongly associated with drug use such as ecstasy and amphetamines.
3) The media initially condemned raves, associating them with cynically trapping youth into drug dependency. The death of an 18-year-old girl from ecstasy intensified negative media coverage.
