Best Of British: Tracklisting

27
Nov
2008

Last nights radio show was the launch of our new Best Of British night, which was a resounding success. British music from across the years was played, and a good time was had by all, my ole china.

In a change to the advertised billing, Marcus Hurley kicked the show off with a selection of vintage drum and bass tracks from back in the day. This was followed by a heavyweight set from special guest Matty J (aka ReggaeMATTic), taking a nostalgic look at the UK reggae scene. Agent M finished the night off, with a mix of punk, indie, and breakbeat on a UK tip, throwing in some old-time TV themes and adverts, just for the hell of it. Top stuff all round.
