[craner]

You spent 10 years telling me it was shit.

 

[luka]

thats completely different

 

[luka]

although im sure i didnt say shit. i always loved that one amazing song on it

 

[craner]

I remember you sitting me down in the kitchen in Roman Road and telling me to forget about Killah Priest and listen to Immortal Technique instead.

 

[luka]

well that was becasue immortal technique had a song called Bush knocked down the towers, which sent you into a raging fury so it was a good thing to wind you up with

the sad thing about radio dying is that in the old days there was no point buying reggae becasue there was a continuous stream of 24/7 reggae on about 17 different stations

 

[DannyL]

Yeah it felt very much like the sound of London. Had the same feeling about the early rave days when you'd hear Centreforce or Fantasy blasting out from everywhere

 

[luka]

i will never listen to NTS in protest

 

[luka]

NTS radio is one of a new breed of middle class prestige chain stores. they have finally spread into greenwich on the back of the pandemic actually
(here it is Gails bakery, Rosas thai, Franca Manca, (shoreditch) Grind, crosstown doughnuts)

 

[luka]

not that i dislike any of those brands or refuse to use them. just marking the trend. a lot of them i think started in food markets and were scaled up with venture capital
