"You got Bunjy with Brother Nick on his show playin hip hop, Brother Nick's own 'Mass Appeal show', Wile Up with his Pastor persona, + a bit of Goldfinger and Mystri.
There's a Brotha Nick that still DJ's in Bristol - is this the same dude? - his radio voice sounds totally different."

- The first one is the Christmas '95 show. They definitely were not on Galaxy in 97, that was around the time they blew up big with Reprazent. The galaxy show ran till about March 96, I think? Respects to Logix.

- Yeah, that makes sense Rich. I wish I could find my tape of the one where Krust played a wicked remix of Set Speed that was never released :(

- Ray http://www.righttooffend.com/ripper/ That's the site I used to rip the stream. http://axefm.co.uk/icecold.asx is the url you need to enter into the schedule, just give it a name like 'IceCold103-ColdharbourRay(date)' and set the date and time, click add and it should record it for you. Go to the finished folder to pick up the mp3. Already set it for this week ;) Cheers Al

- Cool, think the stream ripper site has just broken though, it won't load up for me now. I think it might be my fault, cause I made a mistake entering something into the schedule and then tried to delete the entry. Looks like the delete function is knackered.

Beep, beep, beep, beep....
LINK DEAD (BUT THIS WAS ONE OF MY MOST DOWNLOADED FILES EVER!)
That's on my radio right now. A steady beep with a constant rhythm which sort of skips every now and then, like it's a short mp3 looping around in an mp3 player.
EDIT: Turned out to be Passion's FM relay coming back on. The signal level is all over the shop, one minute clear as a bell, the next barely audiable behind Sunshine... We'll see how this pans out. Big up for sticking with it though.

Passion 104FM - May/June 1995
- Oh nice one. :) Re: Power/Passion - I'm not sure when it happened but some time early in '95, Power became known as Passion. It was known as Passion 104 all the way until October of that year, when they went off air completely to apply for the RSL (I think I still have the tape with this anouncement on it). Their RSL 'Powerjam 106.6' came on around December. After that they came back as Dance 104 some time in January '96.

- Thanks for the info on that one Rich, it's always appreciated. It's weird that I don't even remember this happening. I guess that it was 'management' avoiding having to explain to the DTI why there was a pirate called Power FM with all the same DJs as the proposed Powerjam RSL. I remember that there was an announcement in the ads when Dance FM came on saying that they'd decided to merge Power and Passion together to produce Dance FM. I remember Dance FM was still going in early 99 and just came to an end before 2000. I'm not sure when Passion came back on 106.2 but I know it was before Dance went off air completely. I'd love to hear that announcement if you can find it :)

- Well I discovered Passion 106.2 in '98. Dance FM had become mainly dancehall by this point. Anyway here's the next one. Passion 104FM, Pre-St. Pauls carnival warm-up jungle shows (1995). Brooklyn & MC Hyper during the daytime, DJ Perks late in the same evening. Not much known about Perks. I gather he was mates with the Dead Calm boys from Shirehampton, as he used to give them and their Moving Shadow releases big props. I think he also played Hip Hop with DJ Demic on the RBG Ruffblood show (Passion). http://www.sendspace.com/file/que8em

- Yeah, I remember listening to Perks on occasions, DJ Quick too. Logix and Semtex have been in touch, any of their shows would be good to have. There was also Paz in the early days of Power FM (Jan 1994 ish). I think Passion first came on around the end of 94, about the same time as Krome and Time Ganja Man came out. Some of the first Passion shows I heard were MC Marv (used to be MC Whiz - Sublove crew) and Quick I think, possibly Perks too, and around Xmas that year Easygroove did a one-off all night set, Jungle and hard Techno. That was on 106.2. Passion seemed to be mostly Jungle for the first few weeks. I've got a Dead Calm 12" here somewhere.

Fem FM 101 - RSL March 1992
(LINK DEAD)
Fem FM was an all-female RSL station which was on air (properly) from 8th-15th March 1992. It started a week or two before with test transmissions. This recording is mostly of those tests, the music was pretty good (house, hip hop, soul, funk etc..), but there is also a 20 clip from one of the shows, by SPEC Radio's Lady G. The rest of that show included Sarah D and Crystal Tips.
A book called "Women and Media" provides a case study on Fem FM...
Fem FM was the first women's station to broadcast in the UK. It lasted 8 days in March 1992, but it's development work with over 200 women went on for a year and its impact lasted far longer, providing a role model for subsequent stations across the UK.
Fem FM was based in Bristol, a multicultural city in the south-west of England with a vibrant arts and cultural scene as well as an active community and voluntary sector. Women who had a background in community, youth and women's radio set up the station. They organised a steering group of about a dozen women, "head hunted" for their skills, experience and expertise in radio, music, technical matters, fundraising, training, community development, working with volunteers, publicity and marketing. This group set about recruiting and training volunteers to carry out both the background work to setting up a station from scratch (including choosing a name, devising a jingle package, fundraising and finding broadcasting and training premises) and devising and producing programming for the eight days on the air. The station was run completely on voluntary labor and the women raised over £20,000 from sources including the Gulbenkian Foundation. The station as a whole was sponsered by an airline, which was keen to promote the fact it had an all-female flight crew!
The aims of Fem FM were:
- to create a radio station with a distinct and different sound from a woman's point of view, representing the rich diversity of women's culture;
- to include coverage of events and celebrations for international Women's Day and Festival Fortnight in Bristol;
- to encourage women from different generations and backgrounds to debate issues of importance to them;
- to provide a service produced and presented by a mix of experienced and first-time broadcasters and to offer guest slots to prominent female broadcasters to promote the station;
- to provide a variety of training opportunities to first-time broadcasters to develop their radio and communication skills and to have access to airtime.
The broadcasts contained a mix of live and pre-recorded programs with a 60:40 music:speech content mix. Producers wanted the station to sound professional - it was important to them that as a representation of women's achievement in radio Fem FM did not sound amateurish or boring, a criticism often leveled at community stations. This had to be balanced with giving first-time broadcasters an opportunity to get real, live experience and to make a few mistakes in a supportive atmosphere. Women at Fem FM were keen to scotch the myth that they didn't want to apply for presentation work in radio.
The programme schedule included a variety of speech and special interest programs, including a program in three Asian languages, a daily youth programme presented by young women, and a daily Men's Hour, and broadcasts were very well received. On Fem FM there were no specialist programmes for lesbians, although gay women were presenters and producers of programmes across the schedule. The feedback from listeners was extremely positive, with women appreciating the way that the station addressed it's listeners, female and male:
"Thanks for getting it together redressing the balance on the airwaves... the presenters are human and relaxing not trying to be cool and slick. If this is a women's touch, I like it... To all the wonderful dedicated women at Fem FM, thanks for the brilliant, exciting, interesting, fresh, riveting, powerful, stimulating, happy, strong, electric eight days of women's radio. Bristol should be proud... Sounds fab, I haven't heard such good music for a long time.. It's destroyed my tolerance for Radio 4: men talking to men... Brilliant, it just makes me realise what's missing off the rest of the radio... It's so wonderful and so good that I just have to tell you I am looking forward to it ending so I can get out of the house!" (Listeners cited in Mitchell and Caverly)
