I remember back in the 80s when they brought in school pirated cassette tapes of the Electro's, I was so desperate to get my hands on them. Hence later on I got into House, rave and Jungle!
I was the same but much younger than the big boys who had the tapes when we used to breakdance at the local shops! I remember hearing Al Naafiysh and wanted that so bad😢 can't explain the feeling I had when I finally got a copy of that electro!
I miss London being like this, 90’s London had a charm about it that’s completely gone now. What a time to be a teenager in those days with the underground music scene in its golden era.
Why do you think that set specifically would be on RU-vid?…There were many many pirate stations broadcasting simultaneously across London throughout the whole weekend, every weekend in the 90’s so to track down a specific set like that would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack!
Remember when you're mate would bring a cassette tape into school, with some music that they'd recorded the night before that they'd managed to catch on the radio... Good times.

Imprisoned or offered new opportunities? Were our grandparents prisoners of television and our great, great grandparents prisoners of radio and telephone? Glass half empty or half full? Human interaction is heavily challenged by technology and forced to redefine itself, definitely - check Steve Cutts ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e9dZQelULDk.html - but the extent of possibility is greater than ever.
We run a small FM 100 watt station don't play any thing with profanity or violent implications I guess that's why the FCC has left us alone all this time while hitting the others that were playing the bad stuff .
