Jamz and Spoony discover the creative methods DJs used to launch UK Garage from the underground and reach people across the country.
Ignored by the mainstream and evading the police, DJs took untold risks to spread the sound.
Creating cult followings in London, Birmingham, Manchester and more, the illegal airwaves of pirate radio, recorded tape packs and underground raves became the megaphone for the sound.
Experiencing chart success during the late 90s, the scene went all the way to the top of the pops in this great British takeover.
In this episode, we hear from Matt ‘Jam’ Lamont, Omar Adimora and So Solid Crew’s Oxide and Neutrino.
