Episode 40 | Shuffling to the UKG beat

I Listen to Everything is back! Starting off the new year strong with a super upbeat electronic dance genre, this episode explores the roots of UK Garage. We discuss the influence of US garage, contemporary R&B and house music as well as the role of pirate radio stations and the key figures who shaped the genre's sound - a sound that we can still hear in much of popular music today!
