Delving deeper into the night of London. On this second installment the focus is on the underground London scene: Clubs, pirate radio and white label pressings. A myriad of genres and all sort of short-spanned influences set to service a musical scene in process of ceaseless reinvention, dismantling and reassembling.

Hard to see the whole spectrum in only 10 songs so I tried to keep this playlist as cohesively varied as I could, on this offering you’ll be hearing elements of everything from techno, dancehall, dub, rave, house, electro to hip-hop. Hopefully this playlist will make for a good introduction and will get the listener to delve further into the sound.

    Yes! There’s an italian prog band from the 70’s that goes by the name Premiata Forneria Marconi, I don’t think I’ve heard any of their albums but kept bumping into them while trying to find more info for the British PFM.

    I was trying to figure out why your site seems to be so [wonderfully] cut off from the rest of the blogosphere, and I realized it’s because you don’t have any ads on here. This is a place I love to go when I come home to get away from the craziness. :]
