London's underground sound
London has given the world some of its most influential dance music, from the jungle and drum and bass of the early 1990s to UK garage, 2-step, grime and dubstep. Much of that music was first heard on pirate stations and in small clubs, played by DJs who later became legends. Playback UK carries that spirit online, streaming live around the world and giving DJs a platform to play the music they love. It is available on TuneIn, OnlineRadioBox and other platforms, and it has an active community on social media.
