Raves would be mostly a mixture of foreign and local Scottish talent culminating in several 15,000 plus attendance events called 'The Event' with one hosting 47 artists lasting over 20 hours, including DJ's Lenny Dee, Joey Beltram, Technotrance, DJ Ten, Marc Smith, Scott Brown and PA's Bass X, Q-Tex, QFX, Egebamyasi and Dye Witness.

It took a long time in coming, but eventually on 14th August 1993 Rezerection got there - the biggest dance party ever staged in Scotland (until Fantazia - Big Bang), promoted by the Rezerection crew. 

Rezerection was attended by 12,000 people, but due to very strict regulating by the environmental health department, the event was marred by a low sound level.  This was the event at which the Prodigy walked off stage because the sound levels made their set sound absolutely ridiculous.  Staged at the Royal Highland Showground in Edinburgh, which is situated right next to Edinburgh airport,  you would think that Rezerection would have had no trouble with sound levels.  But the airport was not 24 hour and normally closed by eleven o'clock except for emergencies.  The main problem they had was with an elderly gentlemen who lived nearby, who complained to the local authority.  Rezerection offered to send him away on expensive holidays whenever they staged their events, to buy his house, to move him, and countless other incentives.  But with a knick knack paddy whack give a dog a bone, this old man stayed right at home.

Rezerection launched a double album 'The Awakening '95' via Evolution Records before moving outright into the record label market through the power of their already established event branding and merchandising (even had British TV personality Donna Air model their clothing range). Had self titled dedicated tracks to the organization with Bass Generator 'The Event' and Scott Brown 'Do What Ya Like (The Rezerection Anthem)'.

After Rezerection went into liquidation back in 1997 it seemed that the Hardcore scene in Scotland was doomed.

But news has it that the Rezerection name has been bought by none other than Jon Campbell from TTF and CEO of Danceland who plans to hold bigger and better events. The new owner plans to book the best bands and DJ's.
