RESUMO

Since the mid 90 s, it became popular among some young groups that live in or around São Paulo city to celebrate parties on open air in remote areas, far away from downtown, for more than 14 hours in a row, to the sound of electronic music and under the effect of drugs - mainly one called ecstasy. Those parties, also known as Raves, are held in especific places prepared for the construction and fortification of a network of a particular sociability, under which engagement, interchanges, loyalties and disputes are exercised. This network doesn t constrain iself only to such event, but spreads out and determines flows of people and groups throughout the São Paulo. The aim of this work is to examine the Brazilian Raves, especially the ones held in the state of São Paulo. The aim of this grasp the functional revaluations of meaning observed in the field work. Althougt the historical perpective of almost ten years of Raves in Brazil suggest for a increase in raves formats, the peculiar raving way still endures as a theme,a reference and a performance
