DJ Hype joined Alan and guest host Talina to reflect on his remarkable journey from the his involvement as a young teenager in reggae sound systems, through DJing at the UK's late-'80s rave events and pirate radio stations, to becoming one of the pioneering figures who helped shape jungle and drum & bass. He shares firsthand memories of the underground movement as it evolved into one of Britain's most influential electronic music genres.
From award-winning DJ and producer to the driving force behind the iconic Ganja and True Playaz labels, DJ Hype has spent more than three decades defining the sound of drum & bass.
