1986-1993 to present: LONG LIVE ORANGE! Chris Paul created, ran, promoted, djed, and mced one of the largest dance music events to take place in London under the name ORANGE ORGANISATION. Events took place every weekend also including an all nighter for 10.000 people at London Raceway featuring The Prodigy Live on stage. He brought in thousands of people every weekend to his raves.
The memories still live on of the Orange Raves! The best rave, hardcore, breakbeat music all in one place! The best djs and artists performing to massive crowds of happy and loyal ravers in the center of London.
"Memorable laser and light shows. Massive soundsystems. Giant graphics. People cueing for miles. Everyone with their Orange membership card and Orange organisation ravers glow in the dark T-shirts, It was incredible! These have been one of the most amazing times of my life and also a special time for dance music. Nothing comes close to those days in London. It was so fun djing but there were some days I just wanted to be out in the crowd to experience what everyone else experienced. Thank you so much for the lovely comments and messages I receive regarding ORANGE!"
Cheers, Chris Paul
