Description
A rave on the Great Wall of China, 1998 🏯
The flyer said "Visible From Outer-Space", gave a meeting point and promised fin-de-siècle house and techno. The location stayed secret so the Beijing police wouldn't catch wind of it.
Michael Vonplon and his Cheesebeat collective spent four months planning it at Simatai, three hours from Beijing. They hauled two dozen 100 kg speakers up the mountain and tapped power from a nearby mineral water plant. Around 650 people danced on beacon tower No. 4, many for the first time in their lives.
