The first edition of Rave Down was broadcast on March 11th 2020. Looking back is pretty surreal as I remember talking at the station about what was happening in Italy at the time and hoping we wouldn’t go into lockdown.
12 days later we had the same restrictions placed on us in the UK and a topsy-turvy few years started.
Strangely we all had to adapt and I managed to keep the show going through the lockdown, I can remember recording a show or two on my iPhone at one point which seems crazy now. We all had to be creative and adapt.
One good thing that happened in lockdown is I had a bit more spare time to organise some guests on the show. This hour looks back over the last 4 years featuring some of the guests and my favourite releases of those years.
I hope you enjoy it and thanks for listening.
