Wow! Thanks! Great show! Reminded me how lucky l was to be in Melbourne in the 90s! Parties at the docks, shed14, hardware , every picture tells a story , Mt disappointment bushdoofs in November, bass station ,hard candy, bubble, Brunswick st fest., great memories ! Special time! Thanks for the memories!

[@JayFitzMinimalTechno]

I was there for all of this Hard Kandy, Bubble, Bass, all the raves, Kryal was epic. Wish i had a time machine!

[@danger1sf]

Kryal Kastle might have been my last Melbourne party. Got in with friends who were filming the dancing for the organizers with huge portable lights and camera. Picked this dance up during my year there, but have rarely had an opportunity to bust out this move in San Francisco over the past fifteen years. I'll keep going out, hoping for the right beat and some space. Wish I could've returned to Melbourne!

This is such a beautiful doco! Well done! I will never forget back in the ealry 90s when I was touring with a techno band & the way ALL the Melbourne kids danced with their talcum powder & huge pants, it just blew us away! It felt as if everyone else had been doing it all wrong, but these kids got it! KUDOS, MELBOURNE RAVERS!

best doco ever.. gave me chills. big up for Melbourne in the late 90's 2k's

[@benjamincoggins6568]

I'm a Melbourne shuffler from way back. It wasn't until I went to raves/ clubbing in England and in Europe in the early 2000s that I heard it called that. Was just how we danced. Cool to see it documented and credited here. Great doco. Shuffle on!!!

[@madamedellaporte4214]

Same, here when I went to London. It was just how I danced...

[@dewulfe9913]

Me too, started in 1990, Pure was the best, in my group of friends we called it "stomping" and ourselves "stompers" (not "ravers"). As far as I knew that was the common terminology for the scene. When I first heard the term 'Melbourne shuffle' it was at least mid to late 90s, and I thought it probably came about because from initially being an almost continual stomping motion in the late 80s/early 90s, the dance had been simplified to mostly shuffling, since proper stomping to 140+bpm trance/hard trance isn't something anyone can do all night.

[@matthewgrove-jones3001]

​@@dewulfe9913little Annie amphetamine

[@dewulfe9913]

​@@matthewgrove-jones3001I knew what you're saying, but no, if that was enough, then the dance style wouldn't have changed the way it did. Stomping was WAY more dynamic than shuffling. No matter how much energy you have, your lung capacity and circulation capacity is limited. But even more critical is the question...are you having fun? Being very cardio fit around that time of my life, in 93/94 I happened to do a little stomping at a jungle night, and a different techno night, with bpms around 140. And while I could keep up for a short time (say a minute of full blown dancing)...it just wasn't fun. At that speed and up, there isn't enough time from beat to beat to be creative or expressive - but those are the things which made dancing in the early days so much fun for me. So I was disappointed but not surprised to see dancers in the hard trance rooms at big events doing a very limited, reduced version of what we did in 89-92. And I'm not knocking shufflers from Melbourne's hard dance scene...I'm just pointing out that when the bpms go from 125 to 140+, the dance has to change. It's the same as basslines - a prog house track at 126 or 127 can have a really unique, interesting bassline, because there's time for each note to play out. A trance track at 145 will have the opposite - just a few short notes in a short loop, because there's no time for anything else...

[@WideEyedDesigns]

This so awesome to stumble across. It's 2019, but I'm back in my dancing days of the late 90's, BC Canada. I'm actually fully stunned by this, because way across the world a handful of very high energy kids from various different dance style backgrounds came together and out of it a blend was formed very similar to the Melbourne Shuffle: Liquid Movement + Uprocking from Breakdance + Skip/Kicking in Place + Glide Stepping Like MJ or Usher. Throw in a phaaatty bassline at a high tempo, and this is what the dance floors looked like. When we first got into people would just stand and stare in disbelief "How do you do that skip/kick" was a common question. Wasn't long before most kids were bouncing around the dance floor lol. Thank you for this, i'm sitting here with goosebumps lol

[@tobypaterson4174]

I was a clubber back in the UK in late 80s and hit the rave scene from London to Glasgow. I first seen house music Shuffling in Leeds & Halifax only a few people could do it. Melbourne Shuffle and the amount of people shuffling is on a different level to anything I have ever seen. Undoubtedly the Shuffle capital City of the world 🫶

[@alexblanelayder1972]

I don't ever comment on KZbin but I felt the need to contribute to this video. It was the Asians who took the technicalities of this dance style to the rave scene. The foundation and the basis for the moves you see on the dance floor. This came out of the Warehouse nightclub from 1995 when we practised until our feet bled and skin was falling off our feet just to develop the style you see today. Melbourne may have developed the rave culture but it was the Asian student community whom created the dance moves. I bear witness to this from the very beginning and I contributed to it. You'll be surprised where the feet movements originated from. Too bad I was never interviewed about this for the documentary, I would have provided the grassroots of where it came from and I would be happy to disclose this unique history. I can even provided the names of the original groups who brought it to the Melbourne rave scene. Indonesian students to the Malaysians to the Singaporeans then onto the rest of the Melbourne rave scenes. From there, the rest of the world.

[@MissFiyah1]

Hope when looking back, you go right back to were the inspiration of the dance came back from. What I see here is Running Man, Northern Soul, Shuffle, Body Popping to name a few.

[@elevenpsy]

Who cares who invented it or brought it here or "developed it." Dance is dance. Just enjoy it.

[@belindadomingo]

I remember this clearly. I saw the Asians at a rave at the docks in 1996 and was blown away by their moves. Then you’d see them dancing in the arcades of Bourke St on a Sat night. They took the Melb shuffle to a technical new level 100%

[@JustRichii]

I feel like its similar to the Melbourne Muzz which is more prominent these days at Trance music festivals and similar sub-genres. The roots come from Tecktonik movements, and then later popularised by Zyzz, which while he blew up with fame - the asians from Melbourne started jumping on board and made the Muzz dance much more in-depth and developed more style to it. The Gabba / Hakk is another type of dance that is widely popular and commonly seen within Hardstyle type music events, more prominent in Sydney within Australia - which also has its roots from overseas, but has seen specific movements and variations that are more unique to Australia's Gabba. We did also see the Juicy Wiggle dance become trendy within the Melbourne bounce era from around 2013 for a short-while. Funny enough, the artist LMFAO ended up making a song about it. It's definitely interesting to see how these dance styles comes and go, or even stays. Would love to see what other unique dance styles other countries have in their underground scenes that are not widely known unless you specifically search for it, and / or know the name of it.

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

No it wasn't Asians, they were definitely part of the community but not the creators of shuffling It's roots come from Irish step dance

Yes!!! Someone else who remembers stomping!! That's what our crew called it in the beginning! Pure, back of the Palace, just magic! And 1000% agree about the moves - as Terry Ho says in this doco, the bpms used to be around 125 so you could be really creative and diverse but still in time with the beat. That was the best...making new things up on the spot...

I learned the shuffle from my older bro who was in the late 90's rave scene in melb (bubble, hard kandy, etc), got his pair of phat pants too, also learned from this doco (melbourne shuffler) dvd which i paid $40 back in 2006 or 7, and a bit from youtube like bigmillan, but mostly from people on the dance-floor. my dance floor was brissy tho so it was highly adapted and there was a lot of 'brisbane stomp' and a lot more 'happy hardcore' music which was a lot faster and crazy than what you hear in this doco so shuffling wasn't an option most of the time unless you went to a club to hear some eurotrance or maybe prog or hard trance, or god forbid mainstream house that you'd shuffle to anyway if you'd had a few drinks but normally you'd turn your nose up at not being underground enough, and there we where in bris, a dime in a dozen but had a blast anyway. The scene became more for the kids once lmfao did it and there we'd see kids having shuffle offs on the streets in the middle of the day dressed like they're in the middle of winter in melb in the middle of the night with long phat pants and hk hoodies etc. I miss the rave candy most of all, but as for the dance.. whilst i do enjoy busting it out every now and then, it just looks inorganic to me most of the time now... like the whole scene, everyone adapting this one base style of movement kinda like everyone agreeing on wearing a uniform to a night out centralized around the theme of 'letting go' and freedom and peace which is obviously pretty ironic. I've seen people do much better with self expression since leaving the scene and to date I mostly just see people who try to look good for the camera or use amphetamines and various pharma drugs looking all tweekishly insectlike as they perform the style like a pigeon on heat like its the only thing they've accomplished for me to hold the same level of respect for it that I used to. It was great fun while it lasted, and whilst there where people didn't look like scabbed up vampires or like babies doing it. so ultimately it's a very artificially fuelled and artificially themed dance style which is bad for the knees, but which was good while it was new and for declining time period after and thats it. its dead now, its in the hands of instazombies and literal zombies. RIP melbourne shuffle

[@desiolle2874]

I remember rockin pretty hard at Turnmills in London around '97.....there were some nasty folks running that club back then....I was high so ignored the dark frequencies...until a woman walked past me at the top of the dancefloor and told me someone was going to stab me....I made it out pretty quickly after that....

The Melbourne shuffle was formed very early in the 90s from various really good innovative dancers (all different in styles) that basically influenced the rest of the rave scene and slowly but surely became what it is today, I was there and proud of it!

" unless he was on dawn patrol, by which time youd seen the greats and already bounced to whatever recovery party suited the vibe...seeing sleiker, slack, mad rod& rudeboy. was a weekly... wet mucic, with simon digby and will e telll was a peak for me..and for those in my age bracket, let me just say the red room in northcote, anarki saki this clip doesnt mention those secret raves in the docks, or under the westgate, where it was word of mouth only... and thats probably a good thing...hardware couldnt leech everything

Anyone know the tracklist for this or can identify any of the tracks?

[@Scotty-P]

Where was that first dancer filmed? Singapore? Hong Kong? Beijing?

[@bengrassham9717]

Pity they don't have any of the early style from pre 95, thought the old shuffle looked a bit better, faster and a lot more big popping moves. Think it was the difference from shuffling to to the base in the two step, to the old style that shuffled to the high hat and popped on base.

[@peterstephentrinh257]

Lee (Leigh) from Broken Hill?

[@salemrivera3934]

[@JayFitzMinimalTechno]

Harvest Brothers - Conan

[@enigma1437]

Regardless how the shuffle move changes, I'm still down with the OG Melbourne shuffle.

[@alister_]

Intro track name?

[@ghettoo2]

In LA we had our own thing come out around 1998-99 called the Nordic Trak which has since been morphed and called CandyWalking. A strictly undergound movement that still lives on, for kids into shuffling in dance circles, its the one main competitor to the melbourne shuffle. I Appreciate the melbourne shuffle when performed correctly, but since the LMFAO Everyday im shufflin' made it sooo mainstream youve got a million half assed non coordinated goofs all over the dance floor lookin at their feet knockin everyones drinks out theior hands

[@theDjItchybeak]

'evErYdAy i'M sHuFfLiN' is the worst!!! hahahahahahaha. It will never be mainstream, just "popular".
