The Eighty Eight Podcast Hosted by Wayne Anthony

Acid House NFTs | Genesis’88 NFTs | NFTs FutureWayne Anthony discusses the option of digitally archiving EDM history including The Second Summer of Love in 1988. Wayne is internationally recognised for staging some of the biggest illegal Acid House (Rave) parties in history. It was the effort of his organisation Genesis’88 and a handful of other large scale party promoters that pioneered a series of events never experienced in the UK. Genesis’88 flyers are highly sought and sell for hundreds of pounds. Wayne shares some thoughts and opinions on how promoters, artists and musicians can reclaim ownership over their creative output. Wayne was the first person to mint an Acid House NFT in the form of a Genesis’88 Chapter 1 flyer. A fitting beginning for archiving a generational shift unlike any other in history. Wayne has already created limited edition Acid House artwork for minting into NFT and will continue to explore this area.Host: Wayne Anthony (Genesis’88 / Class of 88 Author)Supporting the PodcastWe have only recently launched the video and audio podcast, which means we really need the support of our viewers and listeners.

Behind the Scenes with Genesis’88 | Acid House 1989Genesis’88 staged three illegal parties in Ferry Lane, North London. The first epic party was on the 11th February 1989 and the last a few weeks later. Numerous waypoints worthy of note have been documented including fronting two police captains, standing up against two police riot squads, and staring down the barrel of a robbers gun. This is also the night their full security team demanded a cut of profits from then onwards otherwise they’d take the nights takings and leave. Thousands of people attended the events, many later commented on how their lives are transformed by Genesis’88 events.Host: Wayne Anthony (Genesis’88 / Class of 88 Author)In This Episode*   Genesis’88 & Sunrise 14th January 1989*   Genesis’88 11th February 1989*   Finding and Blagging Warehouses*   Producing Fake Leases From Estate Agent Letter Leaded Paper*   Gangster Lee (RIP) Types Up The Fake Leases*   Traffic Strategy for Ensuring Cars Reach the Venue *   Staging Genesis’88 Parties Every Week for Months*   Sunrise Tony Threatened By East Enders*   Chapter of Chapters Flyer*   Meeting Warehouse Owner Ten Years Later*   Wag Club - Gerry (Mini Cab Operator) *   Meeting WD Cab Driver (Wizard Sparky)*   Arriving on Night of Party (No Power in Building)*   Hiring Lasers for First Time*   Gurkhan (RIP) Story*   Fronting Police Captains & Riot Squads *   The Fiat 126 Story*   Folks Start Arriving at Meeting Points*   1st Police Captain Arrives - Interrogates Wayne *   Carlton Leech (Rise of Foot Soldier) First E   *   Security Demand 25% of Profits*   Yardies Attempted Armed Robbery*   Collaborating With Acid House Heavyweights*   Crashing Aerodrome on Ferry Lane*   Biology Stage First Event Same Night as Genesis’88*   Second Police Captain Arrives with Riot Squad*   And Much MoreSupporting the PodcastWe have only recently launched the video and audio podcast, which means we really need the support of our viewers and listeners.

Behind the Scenes with Genesis’88 | Acid House 1988Genesis’88 established their name as top flight promoters in the warehouse on Leaside Road, Hackney. They transformed a large dirty illegal warehouse into a winter wonderland. Staging three events over the Christmas period and then a News Years Eve party with the legendary Sunrise. The Genesis’88 partners spent many days decorating the building in preparation of four historic events. It was rented to them by a landlord whom actually turned out to be a squatter. Genesis’88 held a series of memorable events in the building. Host: Wayne Anthony (Genesis’88 / Class of 88 Author)In This Episode*   Genesis’88 Leaside Road Flyers 1988*   Finding The Warehouse on Leaside RD*   Keith Brooks Joins Genesis’88*   Creating the Winter Wonderland*   Confronted by Shotgun Wielding Skinhead*   Genesis’88 Start Weekly Long Run of Events (4 months)*   Escaping the Swinging Sixties*   Staging Parties Over Christmas*   Biggest New Years Eve Party with Sunrise 1988*   Blagging Law Enforcement with Sunrise Tony*   Gatecrasher Locals Trying to Break into Building*   The First Robbery Attempt*   Police Burst Bubble by Announcing Landlord was Squatter*   Genesis’88 and Sunrise Collaboration Continues*   Wayne Anthony’s Limited Edition ArtworkSupporting the PodcastWe have only recently launched the video and audio podcast, which means we really need the support of our viewers and listeners.

Hm Government vs Acid House 1988 - 1990The third in a series of podcasts deep diving the printed media’s reporting on Acid House and the people attending events. The sensationalised headlines were mostly written by anonymous journalists, although the named journo’s were just as ferocious. The style of reporting we’ve since witnessed when the state moves to shutdown a national threat. Hundreds of articles were constructed to misinform the general public so laws and governmental powers to curb the assembly of people could be fast-tracked into play.Host: Wayne Anthony (Genesis’88 / Class of 88 Author)In This Episode*   Where are The Eleven Year Olds?*   My Last Pill NYE 1995 Holborn Pavillon Australia*   Acid House Promoters Wont Get Licenses*   Biology Jarvis is Acid’s Mr Big*   Protecting Your Money*   Yardie’s Attempt Armed Robbery at Genesis’88*   Why Lie About Charity Connections to Events*   Biology Jarvis Threatens Police with Riots*   Bros Enlist in War on Acid House*   Does Drug Use Diminish The Acid House Experience?*   Technology Unleashes a New Batch of Music Producers*   Cops in Battles with Ravers*   Cop Taken Hostage at Rave!*   Arresting Promoters Then Releasing Them*   Cops Battle with Acid House Yobbo’s*   Closing Down Britain’s Most Famous Clubs*   Goldfish Pills Sold as Ecstasy*   M25 Acid Parties*   Genesis’88 | Biology Free New Years Eve 1989*   Sunrise Gets Stopped | Joins Genesis’88 & Biology*   Wayne Arrives at Warehouse with Thousands of PeopleWATCH ON YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/SRbkBSYnFxYSupporting the PodcastWe have only recently launched the video and audio podcast, which means we really need the support of our viewers and listeners.

Government Confidential Files Released Nearly Thirty Years After Acid HouseWayne Anthony deep dives the declassified Acid House files released by the National Archives in 2016. Contrary to popular belief the Tory government headed by Margaret Thatcher appear more concerned with noise pollution than health and safety. Confidential memos even state that ‘drugs are not the main issue’ MP Carolyn Sinclair. This may come as a surprise to most considering all the bad press until this point. The government were also considering making ‘noise’ a criminal offence with heavy penalties for the prosecuted. The declassified files outline various methods of dealing with Acid House ‘organisers’, venue owners and anyone remotely connected to Acid House parties.Host: Wayne Anthony (Genesis’88 / Class of 88 Author)Watch Video: https://youtu.be/Rk6AhBhF6xgIn This Episode*   Acid House in the Press*   Government Wants to Make Noise a Criminal Offence*   Biology Jarvis Loves His Champagne*   The Gerald Coke Letter to Prime Minister - August 1989*   Increased Penalties for Promoters & Land Owners*   Flurry of Communications After Gerald Coke Letter*   MP Carolyn Sinclair Memo 1989*   Government More Concerned with Noise Than Drugs*   Police Wish They Were Called ‘Pay Parties’*   Government Surprised by Lack of Alcohol at Events*   First National Police Computer Network 1989*   Ravers Encouraged to Snitch After Being Illegal Stopped*   The Phrase Pay Parties Becomes Common*   Using Common Law Against Party Promoters*   Bring Acid House inline With Pop Concerts*   Controlling Different Genres of Music Through Licencing*   The Licencing Application Process*   Private Members Bill & Criminal Justice Act*   Inspectors with Decibel Meters Patrolling Birthday Parties*   Association of District Councils Document 1989*   Information Concerning Acid House Parties Document 1989Supporting the PodcastWe have only recently launched the video and audio podcast, which means we really need the support of our viewers and listeners.

Acid House Trashed by All News Outlets 1989 OnwardsIn the second part of Wayne Anthony’s analysis of news stories published by media outlets between 1989 and 1990. Hundreds of news articles are printed during this period. The sensationalised headlines were targeting parents and voters. The aim is to change the law, further restricting the movement of people. The news stories were instrumental in engineering fear among parents. The articles highlighted key areas they wanted to change but needed the full backing of the general public to make it happen. Wayne Anthony shares his personal commentary on each article featured in the video.Host: Wayne Anthony (Genesis’88 / Class of 88 Author)Watch Video: https://youtu.be/COBQrT-A9PAIn This Episode*   Acid House Spreads Like Fire*   Fake Genesis’88 Party - New World Genesis*   Acid Kids Are Duped in £160,000 Party Con*   Mash - Retail Shop on Oxford Street*   Passion Records - Mash*   Send in Paras to Beat Drugs Evil*   Adamski in the News*   The Sunrise Effect*   Acid Riots & Police Clashes*   Service Station Meeting Points*   Getting to the Party - Follow the Right Convoy*   Fury as Acid Party Louts Go on Rampage*   Boxing Champ Arrested in Riot*   Genesis’88 & Biology - Meopham*   Bank Robbers Attracted by News Headlines*   Hiring Venues for Fake Pop Music Videos*   James Mitchell Fronts Sunrise for Fake Pop VideoSupporting the PodcastWe have only recently launched the video and audio podcast, which means we really need the support of our viewers and listeners.
