Born out of loads of youngsters not being able to go home so wrecked at that time in the morning, it kinda started at motorway cafes on the M1, we had some blinders at Woodall Service but the police soon moved in and stopped it all.

Not sure about the car park parties, loads of ravers from the city centre used to go to Sonny's blues in Chapeltown for afterhours around 91. -Original Message- From: Martin Dust [mailto:mar...@dustscience.com] Sent: 17 May 2011 14:17 To: Rob Taylor Cc: list 313 Subject: Re: (313) Pirates (Toddla T "Take Me Back") On 17 May 2011, at 14:12, Rob Taylor wrote: > leeds had a few pirates too - dream fm was the best one - astonishing > variation of music, unlike the london ones Was that in the early days Rob?

RE: (313) Pirates (Toddla T "Take Me Back")
Hiya Martin, Manchester had soul and reggae pirates but don't recall a techno/house one but I'm going back a long time to 88ish when I was there for a year or so but I could have missed 'em on the dial. They might have been more prevelant in the early nineties as jungle broke. Leeds, has had pirates as long as I can remember and still does. The main focus was soul and reggae but the N.O.W. Crew/DJ Martin and others used to be on playing a real mixed bag of music inc hiphop, bleep, disco, techno etc Might be some usefull information here about the UK scene here http://www.towerblockradio.com/page.php?17 Ravi -Original Message- From: Martin Dust [mailto:mar...@dustscience.com] Sent: 17 May 2011 13:42 To: Mann, Ravinder Cc: list 313; Rob Taylor Subject: Re: (313) Pirates (Toddla T "Take Me Back") On 17 May 2011, at 13:28, Mann, Ravinder wrote: > Hi, > > A slight tangent to this.

Hi, A slight tangent to this. Does anyone know if there is a pirate radio culture in Detroit ? Would be interested to listen in if they stream over the Internet. That Toddler T reminds me of Let Me Be Your Fantasy by Baby D more than anything else. -Original Message- From: Martin Dust [mailto:mar...@dustscience.com] Sent: 17 May 2011 13:20 To: list 313 Subject: Re: (313) Toddla T "Take Me Back" Are there many pirate stations still going Rob? Got a few early Rinse things that are good but I can't seem to listen for longer than 5 minutes now it's gone legit, too many shout outs and rewinds! m On 17 May 2011, at 13:12, Rob Taylor wrote: > looks like it's filmed in 'my' part of london too To view the terms under which this email is distributed, please go to http://disclaimer.leedsmet.ac.uk/email.htm
