Hyperreal.org, also known as Hyperreal, was a rave culture website founded by Brian Behlendorf in 1994.[1] It is based in San Francisco.

History

It was founded by Brian Behlendorf and originated as the SFRaves mailing list in 1992,[2] before launching as Hyperreal in 1994.[3] The present website has been active since 1997.[4]

Having already discovered early newsgroups and online mailing lists such as alt.rave and UK-Dance, Behlendorf set out to create a list of rave parties happening in the US, particularly in the San Francisco area. Hyperreal would soon expand into a collection of articles about dance music and club drugs, when at the time very few resources existed online. The site name originated from The Shamen track of the same name.[5][6][7]

In its earliest incarnation, Hyperreal hosted the IDM List,[8] a mailing list dedicated to discussion of the music from artists such as Aphex Twin and Mu-Ziq, and associated labels Rephlex Records and Warp.[9][10] It also hosted an ambient music mailling list.[11]

Hyperreal would also at one time host the first official home page for Brian Eno.[12]
