Life Utopia & Elevation — Together ’94

Catalogue note

Original double-sided flyer for Together ’94, the Life Utopia and Elevation Bank Holiday collaboration at The Sanctuary Warehouse, Milton Keynes, on 28 May 1994. The reverse presents a ten-act hardcore programme — Randall, Slipmatt, Mickey Finn, Rap, Hype, Andy C, Dougal, Jumping Jack Frost, Food Junkie and Demolition Cru — with MC MC, Stevie Hyper and GQ, alongside a separate house line-up of Steve Jackson, Matt Jam Lamont, Funky Flirt and Richie Fingers. It also preserves a venue map, attractions, services, national ticket network and booking information. Surviving recordings of several sets make the flyer unusually useful as a bridge between the printed promotion and the sound of the event itself.

Advertised programme: Hardcore line-up: Randall; Slipmatt; Mickey Finn; Rap; Hype; Andy C; Dougal; Jumping Jack Frost; Food Junkie; Demolition Cru. MCs: MC MC; Stevie Hyper; GQ. House line-up: Steve Jackson; Matt Jam Lamont; Funky Flirt; Richie Fingers.

Graphic-design significance: Large landscape design combining a high-energy crowd photograph with prominent Life, Utopia, Elevation and Together ’94 branding. The designer is not credited in the supplied views and is not inferred.

Historical context: The flyer explicitly states that Elevation and Life Utopia had combined forces for the event. Its 'hardcore' arena includes Randall, Hype, Andy C, DJ Rap, Mickey Finn and Jumping Jack Frost, while a separate house programme includes Matt Jam Lamont. Surviving recordings from the event provide a complementary sonic record of the night.

Condition note: Strong colour and legibility remain across both faces. Visible historic folding/creasing runs through the sheet, with light edge and corner wear, minor surface handling marks and some waviness along the top and lower edges. No major tear, substantial loss or detached section is visible in the supplied photographs.
