Big up to all the Junglist Massive!
Blimey. I remember listening to these two in pirate radio shows in the late Eighties. Jungle, Techno, Acid House- crazy stuff.
Has this show been going for a while? I must admit, I pay little attention to R1 these days, but they do have the odd really good show on.
Let's get some aerials up!
Keep it locked!
Pay attention man! Fabio and grooverider been going strong since then, although grooverider got locked up in Dubai I think so wasn't sure if he had since been released.
No, I know, but I was surprised to hear them on the Radio One together.
Reminded me of how old I'm getting.
Ah, those halcyon days; listening to shows, getting through loads of C90s, blowing the dope smoke out of the window, thinking me mum woon't find out (she found me stash once, threw it out. I had to explain to me mates, where that eighth they'd chipped in for, had gone).
One or two people I knew were pirate DJs. The amount of money they would spend on transmission equipment. And the technology! Microwave links to aerials, placed on tower blocks. The DTI would nab the aerial, but not get the entire studio. The pirates were often just too fly. The elaborate schemes they'd concoct, just to stay one step ahead, and carry on broadcasting. So's we'd have choons dem to listen to. If it haddunt been for the industriousness of the pirates, we'd praps not have had a whole genre of music evolve the way it has.
Course, it's all Podcasts now. Just not the same. 
Come down selector! Don't touch that dial!
'Pulse FM; ah wish we could get it oop North!'
Grooverider spent a few months languishing in a Dubai prison after being caught with drugs at the airport 
Don't forget the illegal pornography he had too!
Someone got locked up there because there were some poppy seeds on them from a sandwich they'd eaten before arriving at the airport
Drugs ! a tiny bloody blim of blow ! lol should of hung the man.
