In August 1989 my partner, friends and I were getting ready for an evenings raving (at the legendary Labryinth Club in Dalston, East London) when this is the set that was playing from a pirate radio. Sadly many of the raves whose meeting points were broadcast on this station became the victims of the rave paranoia that seemed to crescendo this weekend and were closed down by the police. However, I think that this recording perfectly captures the spirit of that time and I am overjoyed to know that this same spirit has continued for over 30 year to the present time. I have added some phasing to this recording to help integrate the various DJ commentaries with the psychedelic drifting tone of the radio signal. I sincerely hope you enjoy this recording because I think it capures a moment in musical history. Enjoy....and if you do enjoy please favourite, repost or share with others that might connect with this period of musical exuberance. Love Howard.

Brilliant!
Remember the period well and the tunes , I was normally the driver x thanks Howard great memories
I was the designated driver of our group too. I have always enjoyed driving and was quite happy to do so in most states (apart from drunk) as long as I had good music in the car and someone sitting next to me willing to chat ;-)
Old Skool.......Merry Crimbo ravers xx
