  • A new book documenting Europe's free party scene between 1997 and 2005 will be out on November 5th. Comprising photography by Italian photographer Mattia Zoppellaro, Dirty Dancing will be published as a collaboration between Klasse Wrecks and Berlin print and design studio We Make It. As a dance music fan and regular free party attendee, Zoppellaro has been documenting his experiences for years. His photos, which capture parties on the outskirts of cities like London, Milan, Barcelona and Turin, pay homage to the dancers, dance floors, soundsystems and hairstyles that represent the free party movement. Dirty Dancing will come in a white sleeve the size and shape of a 12-inch vinyl. Pre-order the book here. Here are some more photos Dirty Dancing.
