It's cool to see things like this, I wasn't aware of. I made something similar for VR around 6 or 7 years ago with full DJ mixing on real vinyl turntables. I got things built so DJs could play their set from anywhere in the world and have access to their music from their own studio or home etc. Unfortunately i was one guy making this and health issues have sadly put this project on hold indefinitely. It would be a shame to let it die like this and would love others to carry the project further. What would be the best way to share this, i really don't know as i made it using unity engine, all my own assets, scripts etc are made by me, no vibe coding or anything like that.

Here's a couple of videos of the project if anybody is interested in carrying this further, please let me know thanks.

Shout-out to the dearly departed theclub.zone, which did this with a bit more panache (as well as a punishingly difficult secret platformer puzzle).

But imho, the truest club experience is the short game SLAVE OF GOD by Increpare:

I joined but seemingly I had to click start on the youtube video and there was no centralized sync sever. I can only assume the song in the 2hr mix that was playing for me, well, wasn’t playing for everyone else which kills the whole vibe of a rave for me. You should give the ability for clients to sync to the master playtime so it’s at least only a few seconds off! Would really increase the vibe instead of feeling gimmicky.

So fun. Long-time fan of electronic music and am heading to my first DJ-centered concerts this year.

I think that scene is overrun with influencer types and various types of recreational substance use. Maybe I'm wrong.

Bookmarking for background while I do other things!

I think allowing jumping would add a lot. looking over the top of a whole crowd would be more visually dynamic.

IJKL for movement instead WASD? An interesting approach...

I just had more fun here than doing anything online for years. Thank you.

I couldn't play, the site didn't load for me :(

The progress bar was stuck on 0% for about 2 minutes afterwhich I gave up.

I am on Firefox 151.0.1 (aarch64) and if that helps at all MacOs 26.3 (25D125) if that helps at all.

Very cool to vibe out with folks anonymously. Almost like the old days where you could go to a rave and be you without fear someone would take pictures or people outside the rave would know who you are. Would love an option to cycle skin colors / tones.

I love silly stuff like this and can only hope that with AI we see more of it. Enjoyed dropping in and the beats were fire.

The whole point of a rave is to take Molly and have fun connecting with others who have also taken Molly. At least for this introvert.

I was never a fan of Electronic Music, I tolerate it for the drugs and the temporary extroversion.

Making movement on IJKL instead of WASD is kind of evil

Aside: I’m not sure how many people realize how big DJ events are in VRChat, especially amongst furries. The virtual furry con Furality is coming up for example and the dances there are huge, thousands of simultaneous attendees. Worlds for events will have full DMX lighting control and sophisticated audio setups.

DJs will often do live mixing as well, it’s not just pressing play on pre-recorded sets, while wearing their VR gear. Recently an event was fully synchronized between an RL version and VR version, complete with integrated lighting setup (the same DMX signals were controlling both RL event space and VR world lighting simultaneously).

Every weekend there’s dozens of huge rave/DJ events going on 24 hours a day mostly be EU and US organizers, although Japan goes hard too (their virtual cons are mind-boggling huge and have major corporate sponsors).

Awesome app, spent 10 mins on it and had a good time - thank you!

One question, not requesting a change, just looking for a "why" type comment; why did you make it so you can change the progress of the videos playing?

Reason I ask is, seems to be it would be more immersive/mmo-y, if everyone was experiencing the same thing as the same time.

Thanks!

Damn :D even tho i prolly just gonne use it this single team, it kinda made my day :) very cool thing - just a collaborative experience to enjoy !

I like it! but without ability to execute own dance moves, not really dancing... Tried with keyboard but it didn't work.. Now imagining infrared webcam thing and some DIY stick on reflective things.. set up your own rave cave, attach sensors, dance, your virtual self mirrors... now you're raving

The first time I saw something like this was in a music-focused virtual world from the 2000s. Strangers would strike up conversations with each other, dance (in some cases to well-known artists), wander around to see what others were doing, and generally just hang out.

I think it was called vSide.

Pretty cool so far. I'm wondering if it could go in a more decentralized direction, gossip or even gnutella.

Fun idea! I was surprised that it loaded on mobile and UI was kinda reasonable but I could tap any buttons to move or do anything. I’ll look into sending a PR for fixing that.

That was really cool, fun

The dance moves are great

Nostalgia of algorave from COVID times. Weird good times I have to admit.

And it was immediately fouled by racism.

what-a-way to pre-start a work day. Thanks for the contrib! :D

Where is jungle basement or something for those who like their beats broken?

Reminds me of the minecraft based raves during the pandemic.

Great choice of sets! Really appreciate them.

Just though I drop by and say it, because nobody seems to notice.

Rave chat was working fine until I wrote "I think rust is overrated" and I can no longer see my or anyone else's messages. Yes, really.

Did this get hugged to death? Not loading for me at all.

Couldn't play :( the site didn't load for me

Very cool concept, where is the video stream pulling from?

Fun while it lasted, really cool ! Looks like we hugged it to death though, server is down..

Seems to be down! Timeout

add a real player count

502, HNHOD?

This is really cool!

haha what a fun site :D. Two dance sections to the rave site, will you be adding a Psytrance section?

Kinda cool! What's the max concurrency?

usernames would be cool chat too

The people who worked on the metaverse must be jealous

Do it for VR

Looks like you have a serious moderation problem, there are racists running around using n-word racist slurs

building something similar, but this is way ahead

ok bro this is fire!!! I wish I would not be able to interact with the playback of the video, I think what's fun is knowing that we are all listening to the exactly the same

looks nice

Trees are dying because of this game. The epa should go after these folks for all their money.
