| This is the original Dread Broadcasting Corp aka DBC Rebel Radio...here is the Story... it all started in Neasden, north west London, October/November 1980 Lepke: Are you tuned in? Are you listening? Miss P: I'm tuned in. Are you sure its on? I cant hear it! Despite its low key inauguration DJ Lepke's Rebel Radio eventually blossomed into the now legendary Dread Broadcasting Corporation; a cultural phenomenon whose far reaching vision and influence continues to be felt a quarter of a century after it first hit the airwaves. The D.B.C. was the only station that cared in and about the community, the prophets not the profits of the aiwaves, with a supporting cast that was always wider than its broadcasting range. Replete with a roll call of deejays who only ever wanted to share their overwhelming love of music, not their overweening love of themselves, DBC came complete with a visual style and character that meant the station could be seen as well as heard. It was the first black owned & controlled radio station in the U.K. and its eclectic mix of music turned on an entire generation who had been ranking enough to tune in. These are session recorded on to tape at the time.. so sound quailty isn't fantastic! But that said "dem still a fine archive of REGGAE/PIRATE RADIO scene of the early 80's" Dread_Broadcasting_Corp. |
