 The British music magazine "NME" is largely responsible for popularising the term throughout 2006 and 2007, until claiming in mid-2008 reviews that "New Rave is over".The genre has connotations of being a "new" version of music heard at raves, as well as being a play on the term "new wave".The aesthetics of the new rave scene are similar to those of the original rave scene, being mostly centred on psychedelic visual effects.
