QUESTION
You were a big part in the launch and running of London
Underground 89.4 FM which ran from 1995-2002. As well as
yourselves the station was home to Daryl B, Jason H, Hermit,
Danny Foster, Jason Kaye, MC Rankin and many more who
were to go on to become some of the UK House & Garage
scenes most recognized and influential artists. The nineties
saw an influx of pirate radio which made it an exciting time
for the promotion of underground music and parties.
Although, there were not many pirates back then who were
able to pull off a birthday rave at such an iconic venue as
London Underground were able to at the Camden Palace
(now known as Koko). How did the station come to be and
what was it about London Underground FM which made it so
popular amongst the other pirates of its day? Did your time
on the station play an integral part in promoting your career?

ANSWER
Ramsey & Fen left Freek FM to help form London
Underground. The pair enlisted a raft of UK garage DJs
that read like a ‘Who’s Who’ of founding fathers including Danny Foster, Hermit, Jason Kaye, Richie
Fingers, Daryl B, as well as a pre-Dreem Teem Mikee B,
Timmi Magic and DJ Spoony who all met at the station.
The fact is there was some true flavor on the station to
propel it.
