MEMORIES: Oh what a venue. 2 huge high ceiling wharehouses connected to each other. Im guessing when i say it was a massive 'Lumber City' all i remember is something about lumber. LOL. Jungle Explodes in Toronto! 2 companies, 2 rooms, thousands of people. Historic event. I didnt do much work on this one, just promotion. Too many people doing things. And of course when working with another company the advertising tends to be different from your own.

DESIGN BY: (concept) Vito, John E, (work) Terry

This felt like the first big arena party. I remember the echo and Rhymetymes very english style!

i loved this party...the funniest thing was when the guys from england thought we were all crazy cuz we all danced to like..every beat in the songs, they were all half-steppers and the toronto scene was just freaking out on the dance floor! insane!
this was the beginning of the end for small syrous parties. after this things just kinda snowballed into the absolute craziness that it became.
still one of the best parties ever.....even if i never made it into the house room
peace

sticker for the event

I have the video for this party. There's lots of Union station antics going on at the beginning and some funny editing with Vito working at X-static. Complete with Burger King Crew sayin how they're coming back harder and stronger than ever... hah!

Lots of freaky editing going on.. overall a great tape. *tear*

I love the rush to get on the shuttles when they arrive and the dood climbing up the side of one to talk to someone inside. heh.

Wish there was more actual party footage.

Heres an inside scan of the flyer. Designed/drawn by Vito, who was, at the time, part of Syrous. He did some great artwork back then, great style. Renegades 1 was a huge success and. Renegades 2 was just a stupid attempt at recreating this historic event and it failed miserably.

Bigup Vito for this flyer.

would love to see that video again if anyone can help me out let me know
been after that piece since the day i lost it ZIGGY!!!
if this ever comes up for sale machete is on it mate
wicked page

this is one of my favorite party memories ever. such a great night. I met so many people. The size and energy of the party was almost overwhelming. My friends had a snapple both in the vendor's section in between the two rooms which made for a great home base.
great time.
great site BTW. brings back so many great memories.

I have never seen any of these videos. Anyone feel like encoding them so there is a truly a record of how shit looked and felt. They are impossible to get a hold of and you guys have them. So why not let others who weren't here in those days see what it was really like.

That would be tits!

this is a must
that snail my gosh long story
i would send cash if anyone could hook me with a copy

so funny you brough this up. you psychic or something lol. Someone at my work said he can do it. Im going to try this week. pssst dont tell toxic
Its a surprise

Oh My Goodie Goodie

Sigma I Hope You Ain't Toying With Us

Wicked X3 And A Gunshot

Anything New On This?
Thank You

hey sigma sorry to bother ya
i know your a busy man

been thinking bout this film awhile
is this shit still going down?

yea i know I said i was gonna get it done at work. That got thrown out the window. I still want to get this online.

The Jumping Jack Frost tape from this party was my introduction to jungle. I still play it on the regular to remind me what it was that sucked me into this scene in the first place.

Sigma,

if you still (this is about 5 months late) want to xfer that vid i can do that....


s.

Is there something wrong with the Jack frost link I keep getting a set that says 40 min but is actually just like 4 min???????

Works fine from my end. Each file is about 20 minutes. Little less little more. Just checked and they play fine.

This party was unreal, I remember being scared because It felt like the amount of people in the crowd was overwhelming..


i never imagined i would be partying with 15,000+ by 1999..

nice, i had the DarrenJay tape & lost it a looooong time ago.

Anybody else notice it sounds like this party was recorded through a live mic? Sounds liek you're actually there if you can get it loud enough.. lol

Monday Im converting the VHS to DVD.
Its been setup.

Wont be long now

I have it here at work. I talked with the guy.. says he can do it today or Monday.

Madness.

If anyone has ever seen the video you probably remember that it was done all ghetto, weird overlays and the result was some bad noise over some of the footage. We are trying to adjust the levels and colors to make the compression the best looking as possible. This is being converted from VHS remember so I will do the best I can. I work at a film and TV post production studio so we have all the tools we need, but sometimes the video is so far gone you cant do anything about it.

If this works well.. look for Pleasure Forces Hypnotic Justice to be done next.

I watching it and converting it as I type this. Watching it on a 40' pLCD TV. The quality after the Union Station footage is really crap. Lots of editing and and wierd cuts. so hillarious.

..but im about 40minutes into it and the quality is a bit better. so who knows. Its being encoded using Divx 6 so go get it. Dont know how big the file size will be, to be honest im a bit scared. I dont think I'll be able to host it to everyone.. Maybe for the frequent members only

shit. going to have to re-encode it. Its 500mb. Divx 6 and I cant re-convert it for some reason. Audio doesnt come through if i try to make it smaller from this file.

Let you know monday

Heres some screenshots

one of the quick fade in and outs of the actual party. The video is edited waaay too much. can hardly make out footage from the event.

Harveys at Union Station

rush for the shuttle buses.

I'll try and have a downloadable version on Monday night. I want to keep it at around 150mb for the entire Hour and 10 minute video.

can't wait!

Only for the Hardcore!

Hi, I'd like to see the video too. My name's The Beef and you may remember me from such moments as .... "When you cry for the rewind we make sure you get it, seen!"
