ORGY, INTERRUPTED

ATWATER — David G, a popular happy hardcore promoter, and his girlfriend E.C had spent weeks planning their orgy. "When David first brought up the idea of hosting a sex party, I was all for it -- so long as we only invited other couples." E.C told Ravenews. "I want to be able to trust the people I have sex with, and I figure if a woman's already screwing a guy, then he can't be a complete creep."

David and E.C had scheduled their orgy for Friday. "We had it all figured out. We had invited three couples that we were comfortable with. We met one online, and the other two were long time friends that we first met back when we studied at Dawson." It was going to be a perfect night of sensual excess. "We had boxes of brand new sex toys, we had lube, we had pizza, we had porn. It was going to be great. The couple we met online were the first to show up. We were getting really excited. So when the buzzer rang the second time, we ran to answer the door. And that's when we saw Radu."

Radu K. was one of David G.'s childhood friends. He had come to the neighborhood to catch a movie at the Old Forum, and when it was done, he decided to drop by David's place. "We weren't expecting him. If we had known it was him at the door, we wouldn't have opened it." E.C told us.

He was an uninvited and unwanted guest, a man who seemed oblivious to the sexual escapades that had been planned for the evening. "We let him in to be polite, but after that we just couldn't get him to leave. He wouldn't take a hint." David agrees. "We did everything short of physically throwing him out."

His presence was enough to scare off the couple they had met online. "They thought we were pulling a fast one on them. Oh, remember the people you thought you were going to have sex with? They don't exist. Why don't you sleep with Radu instead." David told us. "When the other couples showed up, I was in such a bad mood that even if we managed to get Radu to leave, the night wouldn't have been much fun."

Radu, for his part, was unapologetic. "I knew within minutes of arriving that they were planning to have an orgy. Once I figured it out, which wasn't hard considering there was a barely concealed box of sex toys in the kitchen, I decided to see what would happen if I acted like a clueless idiot. I had a blast. While they were in the kitchen talking about what to do with me, I was in their living room using their computer to chat with friends on IRC. I kept my friends on Undernet's #Montreal channel up to date with how David and E.C were dealing with me."

"He's a real asshole" said E.C. "We didn't realize he knew about our plans, and we were too shy to tell him the truth. So he trolled us. Hard."

Radu was unrepentant. "I've known David for nearly twenty years. If he's going to have orgy, and he wants me to leave, he needs to be man enough to say it to my face. I guess that's the lesson I wanted to teach him: don't throw an orgy if you're not willing to tell people about it."

HE'S STILL OUT THERE

They hadn't heard from him in weeks. He no longer answered his emails. He never picked up his phone. The only person he opened the front door for was the pizza delivery guy. He slept during the day and spent his nights playing World of Warcraft.

Worried sick, two of his friends broke into his apartment in order to talk to him. They wanted to know why he'd gone full hermit. He was an extroverted dubstep promoter who loved being the center of attention. He wasn't the type of person who hid from the world. They were concerned.

They found their buddy curled up in bed playing with his iPad.

He didn't even notice them standing in his room. They had to grab the device out of his hands before he even acknowledged them.

He was passive and unresponsive. His friends found his behavior unreal. It was like talking to an alien or a semi-sentient vegetable. He wasn't the least bit concerned about how they got into his apartment. A rock was involved. Whenever they'd ask him a question, he wouldn't answer it. He'd just grunt out a sound and turn his head away.

Exasperated, they started to yell at him. They even yanked him off the bed. He didn't resist. His body was like like a rag doll.

They spent what felt like an eternity trying to get their friend to respond. Nothing worked.

Heartbroken and crestfallen, the duo started to cry.

And that's when the dubstep promoter broke down. Something inside of him cracked, the armor he was wearing fell off, and the truth blubbered out of him.

A police officer had sexually assaulted him in June after one of his parties. It took him weeks to start processing what had happened to him. At first, he didn't even register the attack. It was like a part of his brain had cut out parts of his memory. He'd replay the night in his head, and he couldn't relate to the person who had been attack. It didn't feel like it had been him.

He slowly started withdrawing after that. His habits changed. He stopped going out to parties. And then, in September, he was buying groceries at the IGA near his apartment when he bumped into the officer who had raped him. The officer laughed in his face. The promoter was frozen with shock. He just stood there, unable to move.

Everything became a blur after that. He ran back home and had a major panic attack.

He quit his job, turned off his phone, and closed his facebook account. He didn't want to deal with the world or any of the people in it.

His friends were speechless. They didn't know what to say or how to help.

They left his apartment later that night. They were angry at the police officer who had hurt their friend, but there was nothing they could do. Their friend didn't want to go public with what had happened to him. He just wanted to move on.

A few weeks later, he left Montreal for Ottawa. He no longer felt safe here.

The cop still has his job. Who knows when he'll attack next.

RAVER ATTACKS LOVE RIVAL WITH KNIFE

VERDUN — A teenage raver has been arrested after assaulting a love rival. She had once been best friends with her victim, but after the two fell for the same man, she decided she had to do something drastic to get her out of the picture. So she invited her rival in love to a psytrance party, where she then attacked her with a nine inch bowie knife.

"It happened so fast." said Mike A., an eyewitness to the attack. "The DJ was playing Optical Vibes by Astrix when all of a sudden, there's blood all over the floor, and this blond haired girl is screaming in pain, clutching her face."

The attack took place shortly after 1 am. "Just as the party was starting to pick up, that idiot goes and ruins it for everyone. The cops showed up and shut everything down. She could have at least attacked that girl in an alleyway or something" said Mike.

Jennifer G., another party goer, agreed. "Selfish ravers are destroying the scene. Could it have hurt that woman to wait until 5am before she started cutting people? No one plays good music at 5am. The party's almost over by then. That's when she should have attacked her. That would have been the respectful thing to do."

The victim, meanwhile, is expected to make a full recovery.

ST-HENRI — Friends of shaggy haired psytrance addict Nathan Laurier were lost for words after he informed them that he was the son of God, Jesus Christ, reborn in Montreal for the sole purpose of waging holy war against the forces of Satan.

Nathan told his friends of his divine lineage on Friday night after snorting an unspecified amount of ketamine while attending Jonathan Duchene's birthday. Party goers took Nathan's godly claims in good humor at first, but when Nathan realized that they weren't taking him seriously, he became agitated and started yelling at them.

"He kept insisting that he was Jesus and that Nostradamus had prophesized his birth" said Jonathan. "It was messed up. I thought he'd gone crazy. He started yelling at people and throwing things. My brother Alex gave me a giant Yoda statue as a gift for my birthday, and Nathan chucked it at my head. I barely dodged it. He was mental."

Jennifer Faubert, who has known Nathan for years, agreed. "I'd never seen him act that way before. It's like something snapped inside his head. He just kept rambling about how the Vatican had been training him since birth in preparation for armaggedon, and that if we didn't believe him, he'd send us all to hell."

Nathan's girlfriend, Louise Guidon, was equally shaken. "I've known him for five years, and I've never seen him like that. He really thought he was the son of God. He told me that everything I knew about him was a lie, and that he wasn't really a high-school drop-out from Gaspesie. That was just a cover story. He told me that in reality, he had spent his teenage years studying at several secret Vatican ninja camps, learning Christian ninjutsu from the Templar Knights. I really need to break up with him" she said, and then winced. "But I'm worried he'll hurt me when I tell him we can't be together."

The night's rampage came to an end when Alex punched Nathan in the face. "He broke Yoda. No one breaks Yoda and gets away with it." said Alex. "Nathan ran out of the apartment, blood and tears streaming down his face," added Jonathan."it was messed up."

RAVER PORN BUST

One of Montreal's premiere nightlife websites is in uproar after it was revealed that three of its users hacked into computers belonging to members. They were looking for amateur porn, and whenever they found any they'd post it to an underground website that they started back in February.

The site had over a hundred and fifty members before it was shuttered last week. Thousands of pornographic pictures and videos were traded on the underground forum, the majority of it stolen from unsuspecting Montrealers.

The hackers used two methods to find the porn. Their preferred method was to trick their victims into downloading malware. They'd send them emails and facebook messages asking them to check out a link or file that would install a remote access trojan on to their computers. Their second method, and the one that lead to their getting caught, was to physically infect the computers of their targets using a USB flash drive.

They tried doing the latter at a house party, when someone stumbled onto what they were doing and called them out on it. Everything unraveled shortly after that.

If you're a Montreal party goer who has kept amateur porn on your computer, you might be a victim. Your dirty smut might now be in the hands of strangers. To find out if your files have been leaked to the internet, please send copies to noah@rave.ca, where they'll be compared against the database of stolen porn.

PAY TO PLAY

Any self-respecting DJ wants to play at every possible gig. They live to drop beats, and most of the time money is not an issue. One self-serving promoter decided to bank in on this notion.

"Our plan is to make such awesome events that DJs will beg us play at them" says Brian, the brain behind the Montreal promotional team Bass-Tricks Productions. "It's always a fuss trying to figure out which DJs to book, and then we have to deal with jealousy and whining, not to mention the cost of local DJs. So, we figured why not make the DJs pay us to play? They want exposure, they want to make a reputation for themselves, and we give them that by allowing them to play at massive events. For a cost."

The production team will accept applications, and chose the DJs from that pool, after which there will be a scale of fees depending of the time-slot of any given DJ. Early slots cost 50$, slots before of after International Headliners start at 100$ depending on the magnitude of the headlining artist. They also plan on having additional charges for the flyer; an extra 10$ for every 1 point of font size larger than the basic font size that will be used for the flyer. "We already have a list of over 30 DJs willing to participate, and we've only started. We expect this number to triple once people see who we're booking for the main acts".

Concepts such as Payola have been around since the dawn of Rock'n'Roll and Pop music, in which a record label will pay radio stations to play the songs and artists of the label's choosing. Music has meant big business for the last 60 years, and profiting from this has been the sole purpose of major labels ever since. Now, this new concept is stretching the boundaries, making the artists themselves pay for the right to play. Obviously this idea has met with severe backlash.

"It's fuckin' crazy!" Says DJ Shmiley, an up-and-comer in the Dubstep scene, "I want to make a name for myself, yes, but I'm supposed to be paid for my services nonetheless. So, this stupid idea to make me pay for a spot in a party is totally ass-backwards!". Many other DJs who've gotten wind of this promotional tactic have also vehemently opposed Bass-Tricks, and have called for a boycott of their events.

"It goes against everything we've fought for in the past 10 years here in Montreal" states old-schooler Slackerboy, who has since put a counter concept on the table, a Dj Union. He goes on "It's one thing to accept pennies when a party fails, or is a free event, but it's a whole other story to say that we should actually pay to play". He and others alike argue that if DJs have to invest in getting gigs, they'll have no cash to invest in the music itself, and the scene will become stagnant, people will lose interest as very little new material will be affordable for the city's Disc Jockey community. On top of which, they believe that the scene will be inundated with incompetent DJs who can simply afford to get all the gigs. Also bad for the music scene.

On a rave oriented website, Brian wrote "Hey, you have to invest in your future, you need money to make money". To which dozens of DJs responded "We already invested thousands of dollars into buying music and gear. Go fuck yourself".

Some might need to pay to play, others need a pay to play, but most just want to play. To each his own.

FULLY DISFUNCTIONAL

Any marginal person will tell you that they believe in DIY, do it yourself - save some money, fight capitalism, damn the man. Make your own soap, create your own music, throw your own party. Some things, however, are better left to the professionals.

A crew of neo-hippies based in Montreal, with ties to communes in British Columbia, have decided that it would be best to circumvent the gang controlled drug providers by making the drugs themselves. After learning the processes for manufacturing drugs on the internet, and some from 'enlightened' oldsters in their entourage, they made several batches of LSD, Ecstasy, Speed, 2CB, and Ketamine. Calling themselves Funktion Motors, they sell these home-made drugs at a fraction of the price, which these days is, ironically, already low. One of their crew members, Paul Creud, told us that "We make highly effective substances with recycled materials, and legal plants, that will take you to a much higher state of consciousness than any other dirty pill these gangsters try to sell you. It's great!".

However, they almost immediately faced many problems and dangers. The worst being the health issue. Many of the ingredients are cheap replacements for the usual ones, some are ineffective, some too effective, as well as some combinations of which are already on the FDA (Food & Drug Administration) banned list. We asked Funktion Motors for a full ingredient list and recipe for each different drug, but were refused.

After their first night of partying with these drugs at a large festival, there were 3 over-doses, fortunately non-lethal. One person was rushed to the Hospital after suffering a mild heart-attack. A dozen people broke out into fevers. "Well, of course some of the process involves trial and error, and some people must've just bad-tripped 'cause they weren't listening to the right music - no fault of ours" said Paul during a phone interview. "Dude, we're making substances that are much purer and more natural than the gangs do, so people have to learn to dose themselves, man". When asked if their clients were warned of the drugs' alternative origins he responded with "We write our logo on the baggies, so people should know already. Anyway, what's there to warn about? That our stuff is more awesome and environmental?".

Obviously the biggest opposition to this DIY drug manufacturing comes from the mafias and bikers, those who own the trade. Several of Funkion Motors' bases of operation have been subject to arson and vandalism. A few of FM's clients were beaten. An anonymous employee of the Hell's Angels told us that "The bosses are more than a little pissed off. Who do these fuckers think they're dealing with? They're gonna get eradicated". A short pause from him, followed by an unreasonably reasonable statement, "Listen, yeah people think that we're the evil ones providing people with illicit substances, but we wouldn't be in business if people didn't want it. Anyway, sure we cut our drugs, but fuck, we want people to survive their trip so that they come back and buy more. Makes sense? But these hippy dicks don't know what they're doing. They're gonna get innocent kids killed. I'm not talking about the addict who does too much Heroine, I'm talking about some party-goer dying from a small dose".

Despite all the set-backs, Funktion Motors says that they'll continue making and testing their drugs until they find their own alternative to the black-market; until they successfully enlighten their fellow ravers for a dollar less.

Need to call an ambulance? Do it yourself.

THE NASTY NIPPLED RAVER

"Fucking nasty!" was the first thing his friends said after he showed them what was left of his nipples. That was soon followed by "you are such an idiot" and "what the hell were you thinking?!". He was used to the abuse by now.

Three weeks ago, his parents found his naked body passed out on his apartment floor, his nipples bloodied, mangled and swollen. They brought him to the Jewish General where the doctors were able to piece together what had happened to him. They had less success with his nipples. They had to chop off most of his right one and his left one now looks like one of those man-eating plants from Super Mario Bros. It's a bulbous looking thing that's split down the middle and covered in tiny fleshy teeth like protrusions.

The doctors learned from our nasty nippled raver that he was a terrible drunk. After work, he'd pound back a six pack of pabst and whatever hard liquor was on hand while he surfed the web. His favorite website was a popular body-mod forum. He had become obsessed with DIY piercing within weeks of joining it.

On the night of the incident, he had mustered up enough courage to pierce his nipples. Drunk out of his gourd, he decided to pierce them despite the fact that he didn't have any of the right equipment. Instead, he improvised. He had a box full of nails in the kitchen.

Holding it was the last thing he remembers doing.

He doesn't even know how he wound up naked.

One thing he does know is that he's grateful his parents had a key to his apartment and that they decided to drop in unannounced when they did. His doctors informed him that the damage to his nipples could have been much worse had he not received prompt medical attention.

The nasty nippled raver has started work with a therapist. He hopes to cure himself of his alcohol problem.

BLACK FACE RAVES

Students at a Montreal college are being subjected to world-wide scorn after videos of one of their parties leaked on to the internet. It wasn't the oversexed debauchery that shocked the world. It wasn't the underage drinking that rattled the public. It wasn't the fact that they were playing psytrance that bothered the masses. No, what pissed them off was the fact that party goers were told to cover their faces in shoe polish and to dress up as their favorite African.

It's 2011 and people are still dressing up in black face.

These young revelers showed a dreadful lack of common sense. The fact that they're Montrealers, and not hicks from the backwaters of Alabama is a tragedy. You'd expect this sort of thing south of the Mason-Dixie line, but in Canada?

Montreal isn't the only Canadian city that's had to deal with students wearing black-face. Toronto had a scandal of it's own back in 2009, when students at one of their universities threw a Cool Runnings inspired Halloween party. In 2010, the law faculty of another university in Ontario got in trouble after they threw their own black face party.

Unlike the the students in Ontario, the backlash against the Montrealers has been swift and fierce. Many of the students who attended the party are now living in fear. Five of the students dropped out after being bombarded with death threats from enraged strangers. The school, meanwhile, defended the student's racism, claiming that their black face party was "just in good fun."
