chill rave

The opposite of hard raving. Often practised after long nights raving or by those abstaining from pro-raving, involves a degree of hypothetical theorizing and continual self questioning ("what" is a common chill-raver salutation). Chill raves are non venue specific and occur in numerous locations including private houses, outdoors, fruit markets and often illegal laundrettes. Music is another feature of the culture ranging from chill to rave, without ever really raving, but always chill raving.
