[5] The Helter Skelter organisation was founded in September 1989 in the midst of the acid house party era by David Pratley and his wife Penny.
[4] After a year out, the team reunited and Helter Skelter returned with an event at the 4,500-capacity venue Bowlers in Trafford, Manchester, in association with the Northern dance music organisation, Compulsion.
The events featured drum and bass artists and DJs, including Kosheen, Roni Size, Shy FX, Craze, Grooverider, Hype and Fabio, many of whom had played for Helter Skelter previously.
Utilising the super club's 2,000 capacity home venue CODE, Helter Skelter's relationship with Godskitchen continued as the rave promoter staged a series of nights in Birmingham, returning to the city for the first time since the mid-1990s.
In 2005, Helter Skelter and the Ministry of Sound released a compilation CD, Hardcore Classics, mixed by Billy Daniel Bunter and Slipmatt.
