Description
In this episode, I sit down with Jason Midro — one of the true pioneers of Melbourne’s electronic music scene. From his early days writing for Inpress Magazine, to running Bass Station — the infamous underground club that defined the 2000s rave era — Jason lived through the absolute rise, fall and rebirth of the Melbourne dance movement.
We go deep on:
⚡️ The golden age of raving in Melbourne
⚡️ The explosion of ecstasy culture and its long-term impact — from the 90s to today
⚡️ The behind-the-scenes of Bass Station, the DJs, the chaos, and the community it created
⚡️ His journey from journalist to one of the most influential DJs in the country
⚡️ What really killed the rave scene — and how it shaped today’s nightlife
This one’s raw, honest and straight from the heart of someone who helped build the sound that shaped a generation.
If you lived the era, you’ll feel this. If you didn’t — you’ll finally understand it.
