X-STATIC, Canada’s First Rave Store, Toronto 1994

Across from MuchMusic, at the top of the graffiti covered 162 John St. stairway, you’d find X-STATIC, Canada’s first rave store. The nerve center of Canada’s early rave scene, X-STATIC was a tiny shop packed with DJ Mix tapes, event tickets, rave-wear, and the latest issues of TRIBE MAGAZINE. This is a full page ad they ran in TRIBE in 1994.
