SUMMER OF LOVE AT HACIENDA

Hacienda turned to a residential building.

Industrial design figured by Ben Kelly build in wood, steal and glass was the ultimate anti-establishment for major night clubs and club goers non before experienced. The first visit was mesmerized from everyone for ever. It was hard to imagine, like a set from the not yet released Alien movie. Trap for thousand or more party goers into a Intergalactic Astronomical trip.

Powered by ecstasy and soon the first death. The nightclub faced international recognition to an American Newsweek stands. 3,4 Methylenedioxymenthamphetamine (MDMA), a

Ecstasy pills.

substance known as Ecstasy (E), a psychoactive drug used extensively as a recreational drug. Designed effects include increased empathy, euphoria and heightened sensations. It can be snorted or smoked but commonly taken by mouth, effects begin after 30-45 minutes and last 3-6 hours. Stopped it's medical use in 2016.

Ecstasy full field the dance floor, and music played as the titanic sank. Acid house was created during the mid- 80's. A subgenre of house music, acid houses style defined by a 4/4 deep basslines and "muffle" sounds from a Roland TB - 303 electronic synthesizer sequencer. Acid house started in Chicago and played by DJ's spreading to United Kingdom and Europe.

Hacienda was indeed a controversial nightclub. It's radical furniture, music, ecstasy and architecture, spoke for a new urbanism and a collective co-operative idea. Ivan Chtcheglou a founding member of Situationist International wrote on his texts "Hacienda must be build". The name of the nightclub came from the Situationist International handbook. Later a conference by Situationist International increased the submerse. 

Guests and performers, live concerts including leftfield stars some of like the Smiths, Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark, Echo and the Bunnyman an unknown Madonna (1984), the Happy Monday's, James, Oasis, Blur the list of bands echoes widely. Dj's such as Mike Pickering (later of Mr People), Graeme Park and Dave Haslam. Guests such as the Brits traitor couple celebrating there birthday, traitors who spied there country for the Soviet Union.

Part owners at the Hacienda nightclub were New Order. A critically acclaimed band from the 1980's. A rock band heavily influenced by Joy Division linking post punk with electronic dance music. Most of the members of New Order band was part of the Joy Division adding of Gilbert. In the beginning of there career New Order were shadowed by the style of there music followed by the death of Ian Curtis.

Traveled to New York which helped the band developing further their knowledge in dance music and nightlife adding elements to their work. Reportedly the band lost millions of pounds from the club, and is one of the reasons that it was so successful for many Mancunians and Manchester on global set.

Infused by Joy Division and New Order, Hacienda became "the place" offering freedom and happiness. Philosophical, Hacienda is an example of new - urbanism. The struggle of working class reference from Ian Curtis lyrics, to Situationist International. Ideal of a post - industrial Manchester varies between the factories and it's context.

"The present abundance of private automobiles is one of the most astonishing successes of the constant propaganda by which capitalist production persuades the masses that car ownership is one of the privileges our society reserves for it's most privileged members".

Existing require rules?. Everyday is in calendar, time is counting and the earth is spinning around it self. That goes forever. In every day life we work, build city's to live in and 
multiply. Feed with monotony by adopting rules that somebody thought of values?.

City's can get you melancholic on a daily routine. Serving the rules that will satisfy your appetite in need of material. Billboards shining in a transgender anatomy on roads. There is a sense observing the reality in which we enslave ourself's with utopia in order to escape.

Build your own Hacienda!. If you feel exhausted by the continuous unimpressed environment and en route for a new destination. Then you should take Hacienda as a historical piece of creativity and lifestyle. The nightclub had it's own success story not only in music industry, rather a whole structure of an new urban industry.
