From isolated Setúbal parties to international Boom, Portugal became one of the movement’s symbolic and operational centres.
FOREST, BOOM AND LIVING ARCHIVELOCAL HISTORYSOURCE-LEDSCENE-07
Forest, Boom and living archive
Research dates the first parties and raves to 1994; Boom identifies Good Mood and Herdade do Zambujal as direct roots of the festival launched in 1997.
The country also sustains labels, artists, collectives, small parties and a lasting relationship between local audiences and international visitors.
This record is a doorway. The archive would rather declare a gap and invite contribution than fill space with generalisations.
