Sickmode & Mish pres. RAVE LOVE @ REBiRTH FESTIVAL 2023


From GPF to Sickmode & Mish, a.k.a. RAVE LOVE. How funny how that happened, eh? But yeah, I'm now listening to Sickmode & Mish's set at this year's REBiRTH Festival, which took place on the 14th, 15th, and 16th of April in Haaren, the Netherlands. 3 days of madness, who doesn't want to experience that? Probably one of the first big events held outdoors, but I think that's a good thing: it will get the people ready to venture from indoor events back to the 'outside' world. And when people do, they do get the full experience, the RAVE LOVE experience.

I've not heard of Mish before. Sickmode I have, of course. I still listen to a lot of his sets, as part of The Gang. And when I initially listened to this set, I thought it was the Gang, as the sound just resembles the Gang a lot. I had to double check, as I thought Rooler had changed slightly. But no, it was Mish, who joined Sickmode on the stage for 30 minutes. But not did they bring the madness, they also brought the love!


The RAVE LOVE. I don't know exactly what that means, but hey ho, who the fuck am I? Couldn't care less if they were called 'The Broccolis' or 'The Toe Fungus', as long as they play the finest Rawstyle anthems.


But that's exactly what they did. A lot of their own productions, and they are really awesome records. You can tell the crowd were loving it, as they were screaming so much: toward the end of the set they couldn't scream as loud as they wanted to, as they couldn't anymore, as they had already given 1000%. And so have I!


I wasn't there, sadly, but I could feel the awesome atmosphere come at me through the wonderful medium called YouTube, and you can watch it too, if you haven't already:

If you were at this event, and you were in the Revelation area, you must have witnessed this set. This RAVE LOVE set. It was a shame that it's only 30 minutes long, but at least you get 30 minutes of Sickmode and Mish. And that's truly a blessing.


They do bring the heat. And the tracks are so delicious: they do bring the stomp! You raise your hands in the air and stomp your feet so hard, you might have some blisters at the end of the set. Head wobbling too. You cannot forget about the head movement too. And ears bleeding, as a result of the songs coming at you at such a ferocious speed!


I do love the euphoric vibe through most of their songs. They make you feel happy, cheerful, but when the beats and bass kick in, all hell breaks loose. They do know how to work towards a build up, a climatic moment, but within that lies the one complaint I've got...


Their songs are too short, and the build up is sometimes better than the actual climactic moment. I need that euphoria to be longer, much longer. So much hype for 20 seconds of climax? Nah mate, I need more. And I get it: you only get 30 minutes, and you need to impress, but a bit longer please. A bit longer.


But that's the only complaint I've got. Everything else is great. This set is as powerful as you want it to be, and it's very energetic. Both artists are enjoying themselves on stage, and the crowds reaction should give them the gratitude for what they are doing, and what they are causing: ultimate carnage and havoc on the dancefloor.


Maybe they can get Rooler involved and call their new group the 'RAVE GANG', or 'GANG LOVE'...?
