The reviewers have it right about this important film:

"One of the top 10 movies you must see this year" - DJ Paul Oakenfold

"(Rise) provides one of the only real true historical documentations of a charismatic musical counter-culture..." - Jive Magazine

"Rise is a superb documentary about the rave scene in the US; about hope and idealism, done with a lot of informative footage..." - Anne Nightingale, BBC Radio 1

"More than just ravers discussing raving..." - URB Magazine

"All Disco Donnie wanted to do was throw some wild parties. Then he threw New Orleans into the center of a national debate over music, drugs, the First Amendment, and pacifiers." - Gambit Weekly

This film captures both the energy and excitement of rave culture, plus documents the historic attempt to ban raves by the US Government. This is a great, insightful examination of the dynamics of the rave scene, even for those who may not understand the culture. With a music soundtrack supervised by Josh Wink, and featuring music from the likes of Qbert, Leftfield, John Acquaviva, Paul Van Dyk, Hawke, and more.

DVD is All-Regions, NTSC, 85 minutes, 5.1 surround sound. Features bonus materials on "The Rave Act" and special behind-the-scenes footage.
