Whats up ravers, welcome back to Junga Vibz. For many of you reading this , this is your first time reading this magazine, for that I would like to appologise for, because distribution of no.1 was very poor. ( mainly due to the fact that there were really no parties going on in Chicago after Download happened!). Here on out I promise better things from J.V.T. First of all I will explain to you now that Junga Vibz will from now on be availible at RAVES ONLY! My reason for this is that these Rave\Hip-Hop stores are totally overcharging for simple things like a T-shirt, 20 bills-yeah right .I am not going to give these business' free advertising by having my magazine availible at their locations. My only exception to this would be R.E. , whose clothes are somewhat cheaper ,( 15 bucks cheaper for pants, free plug), and employees much friendlier than the other stores , Whom I shall leave UNTITLED for now. But I will drop off my magazine there only when there are no events happening. So look for us at parties, we try to make it to all events promising all hardcore or tekno. If an event is featuring haus music then we're not even going to consider it, raves are about the future not the late 1980's. -Brian GOOD TO THE LAST BEAT

HOW TO FORM A POSSE
by Mario Van Peebles
Of all the great things in life, friends are at the top of the list. You cannot choose your relatives but you can choose your friends. If you are lucky and cool unto others, you may have these bonds all your life. Skating with your bros makes each day worth living, and if you follow these steps you are on your way to enjoying what life is all about. Let outsiders think what they may, they don't know that skaters have to stick together, because cops, jocks and rednecks all see red when they see a group of skaters having more fun than they ever could.
Come up with a name. Try something like "The Sharks," "The Shag Rugs," "The Overlords," or anything else that makes your set stand out from the rest of the sheep in and around your school.
Have nicknames for all the crew. Everyone has something that sets them apart, use it. Whether it's "Shorty," "Treetop," "Stinky" or "Banana Breath," call it like you see it.
Establish your spots. Let everyone know where you like to hang out, and that is your turf, be it a 7-11, the curbs, or your own home street.
Get a mascot. Find a dog or a little ripper to always go wherever you go and be a part of the clique.
Bros before hos. Never let a girl get in-between the members of the crew.
Don't take any shit from anyone and never rat out your pals. The sooner you learn those two rules, the easier you will adjust to grown-up life.

Im sorry but I dont care who I piss off with this story, this needs to be said, Wade and the rest of Core Innovations are the destructors of our scene who try to knock down every up and coming promoter in Chicago. The most recent example of these crimes is Sept. 25. The two originally planned events of this night were Bio-funk in Madison WI and Hard Core Junkies put out by the Mushgroove crew here in Chicago. Then well after these events were schedueled, CI decides to throw a "rave" on the same night. STOOPID. This is fucked, CI is only out to destroy other promoters, so he can control our scene, he's done it before and he'll continue on this crazed mission until he's stopped. All summer he's offered shitty house parties, trying to make some dough off a different crowd, and he wants to return to raves to rob us some more. Fuck this shit, Chicagos scene has got so many problems and this seems to be the root of the problem tree, chop it down and the fruit that was held make will now be yours-truth. -annonymous-

3-25-1993 HARDCORE JUNKIE
Man this event was really weird to me
I dont know why, but it just seemed weird.
When I first showed up at like 10PM, there
was like 15 people and no lighting, so I went
to get something to eat and when I returned
there was about 200 people, lighting, and tons
of smoke-so thick I couldnt even see in front of
me. Aside from the sludge covered floors,
small smelly space, low turnout of people and
the car on fire outside( whats up wit dat?).
there was one factor of the party that totally
outshone all these negative aspects, and that
was good Hardcore and tekno tunes, I dont
think Ive ever heard so much Hardcore at
a rave before-lived up to its title, HARCORE
JUNKIE.
My biggest complaint though is to tha ravers
themselves, why did you all leave so early
at like 2:30, the wicked toons didnt let up
so why did you? I found it sad and humerous
that the people from Iowa stuck around
longer then you. I dont know maybe you all
got scared of all tha hawdcore and decided
to head to the housey sensation of RAVERS
FROM SPACE-hot diggedy dog!
Then again considering it was the only event
September in Chicago, maybe we've all
gotten soft, who knows.
All I hope is that this doesnt start to happen
all the time.( people leaving early), cause
then the end is truly near.

Evolution
This is the way events should be in Chicago , one area with hardcore and another with tekno , very much present at this event the way it should be. I needed this event mentally to restore some personal faith in the Chicago scene. What can I say, loads of sound, actually caught a vibe while losing my hearing on the same stage pantera has played on-how wonderful!! My only complaint is that T1000 slowed things down way to much. Make some fuckin noise indead -he never did! Everything in tha tekno arena was slammin till then- I think I heard Lenny Dee's Fuckin hostile about four times that night. All in all I would have to say the hardcore room was the best although very small , I think people were amazed to actually be able see the DJ, and to hear music that they usually dont hear at Raves.
I hope more events like this start to roll here in Chicago, although not at the OAK street theatre The raver population here will undoubtedley increase when people start to hear of events actually happening here in Chicago- we're capable.

the HARD TRUTH
by: Brian
These are words that need to be saidabout the whole
Tekno\Hardcore/Breakbeat topic.
Hardcore is breakbeats, hardcore is not tekno. figure
it this way , Raves originated in England with
Hardcore (breaks), not with tekno. While there is
hardcore tekno it is still just tekno. Hardcore is the
wicked burning frenzy that most ravers seem to ignore,
it is the music that sounds like noise to the uninitiated.
All respect should be paid to England by keeping hardcore-
hardcore and tekno-tekno. Breakbeat only describes the
drum pattern of hardcore, (you dont call tekno thump-thump).
In reality there is no hardcore vs house debate because
hardcore takes alot from house but it is very distant from
house music also, the arguement should be tekno vs haus
To understand this more copletely are hardcore rave must be
experienced, I suggest heading to Toronto , which has my
vote as being the best kept rave scene secret in north
amerika, and try to keep up with music and ravers up there
which are all Hardcore. Its easy to swing your arms and jog
in place to Tekno , but when the bombs of bass of hardcore
hit you full force youll be totally overwhelmed and filled
with an energy youve never felt before , youll need drugs only
knock your brain out and lift you to another realm, while your
body spazzes out to wicked rythums.

J.V.T. Man or Myth
J.V.T. is the name I've chosen for the whole production like scheme of Junga-Vibz, and the Junga-line. But J.V.T. belongs to everyone out there readin this. Anyone or anything which has inspired me, influenced me, or has caused me to think is in here
I want to see a huge network of Chicago Ravers hittin parties domestically and via Caravans, and I want to see them hit HARD!!!!!!!!! I hope for the day when I go to a party, and see the many faces of J.V.T. all around me pazzin wicked to the hardcore riddums.
Even better to hear the MC of the party shoutin out "JVT make some fuckin noise" and all of a sudden the whistles and the beats just go fuckin nuts, whooaaa man that would be like a fuckin wet dream to me, Damn.
These arent pipe dreams I'm speaking here, this is reality to me, Chicago needs unity bad, go to any out of town event and compare it to Chicago and youll see what I mean, this is as good as a start as any, no matter how corny it sounds

CIVILIZED TORTURE
Oh, God, I'm scared. I'm going crazy, and I don't know how to stop it. God, please, if you're listening, don't let them get me. Don't let them cut me up again! They sewed my eyes shut so I wouldn't be able to see what they were doing to me, but I know! I KNOW!!
I can feel what they are doing to me. I can feel them tear my insides out! I still feel the pain from where they had broken my arms. I thought that if I chewed my fingers off that I might be able to relieve myself of the pain, but all I did was make matters worse.
Sometimes when they are taking me apart I can smell their precious cigarettes. Worse than that, I can sometimes feel the hot ashes from their cigarettes fall not on my body, but INSIDE it! I feel the flaming ashes fall inside me and ignite my insides. God, help me, but I think they do it on purpose. I hear them laugh at me and make fun of me!
God, I pray to You, and I ask why have You made me in the form of an ape? The humans take advantage of me and use me to save their kind. At night, Lord, I can hear the screams of my brothers as they feel their brains explode in their heads!
Damn them, Lord!
Damn the humans to the hell that they damned me and my brothers, Lord!
Oh, why couldn't You have made me human, Lord? Then I could have been protected from the tortures that man has forced me to endure. There is not a human willing to protect us from them.
Oh, Lord, please, end my suffering!
PLEASE!
Please?
Props to John - thanks for tha above!

In Reactor 7.0 that guy who reveiws raves touched down a little on what balloons do to a party and I totally agree with him. I ve done balloons before at parties and have realized for myself that they just totally fry me out , to the point where I dont feel like even moving much less dancing. While I love the effects of a balloon I personally feel that the N2O tanks shouldnt be brought out at a party until 3:00 or later. This way the party can go strong most the night then people can just chill and enjoy the music with a balloon while regaining their energy.
Also at five dollars a pop someone is racking in tall cash while us ravers are losing our minds and our money.
I'm sure a 2for$5 price could be charged and a profit still made, I'm not trying to draw comarisons here but I've been to dirty hippie parties where that price is charged , but go figure-everything else in rave culture is expensive so I'm sure nothing will change here.
One more thing then I'll shut up and that is a recomendation to stay away from parties that claim free balloons, such as yellow, the aqua cruise series, and others that I vaguely remember.
Ballons dont make the party, instead promoters should put more effort into better spaces, more lighting , more bass bins, these extras will give them a better rep, not the balloons!!!!
