Description

Have you ever wondered how a genre gets made?
You’re in the right place, because Jamz and Spoony explore the origins of UK Garage and meet the people who started it all.
Exposed to US house and garage records in small pubs and the super club Ministry of Sound during the 90s, London ravers were inspired to create their own version of the sound.
The Godfather of UK Garage, Grant Nelson, retells how some of the genre’s earliest records were created in a kebab shop basement.
Matt Lamont’s South London afterparty turned Sundays into the new Saturdays as UK Garage’s iconic Sunday scene was born.
In this episode, we hear from Matt ‘Jam’ Lamont, Grant Nelson and Omar Adimora.
