JJ Pinkman - Tireless NSB Radio schedule manager who has kept the radio and chat ticking over for years Richie Balboa - Richie ball bags, whatever happened to him, he just disappeared, ran the radio for ages, great drunk faceĪlikat - Ran the radio for ages and did lots of great things when I didn't have time, saved the radio a few times
Tony Slackshot - what a legend, did so much for the radio, for the agency, for the live broadcasts, great chap Our girlfriends - for putting up with us for many many years while someone was wrong on the internet Simon Plexus - for always letting me wake him up to rescue the server, thanks mate Thanks for letting me be lazy and just tag my "thanks list" onto yours because its pretty much identical anyway! Won't miss the stupid o'clock messages and calls. He's like marmite, you love him or hate him. Jimmy Brayks - For being a sound geeza and always keeping the ship going. So have as much fun in your lives as you can,īecause it's pretty boring and a waste of time if you don't. This is NSBs time to die, but looking back it was definitely a lot of fun. The bit in the middle is where you have all the fun. Loss is part of life: You are born, you will die. Which gives a poignant segway into the epilogue: I have made some great friends through NSB, and sadly lost a few along the way too. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who was part of this and helped everything keep going over the years. I'm so greatful to have been a part of this amazing community that spawned peoples music careers, record labels, parties, events and built up a lot of new DJ's self confidence in getting on the decks.
TORRENT VENGEANCE SAMPLE PACK HOW TO
I've seen Jims coding ability go from strength to strength, even when he pings me now for help I usually just sit there and watch him type out his inner monologue as he figures out how to fix it himself. I've not played to a crowd any since then, though occasionally dust off the 1200s and have a spin for posterity. Playing Glade festival in 2009 with The Scritch in the NSB breakdown arena was when I last played a set to a crowd - and it felt like the right point to retire from Djing that had been part of my life since 1992. Listening to breaks at a festival up in the mountains in Santa Cruz was a fond memory. I've met so many people through the station - from Asia to the west coast of the USA and beyond. You have all been with me through all my travels through life.
I was an ageing raver who was doing the servers for (and playing on) old stations like breakpirates and interface pirate radio. Well that was a ride, wasn't it? I can't believe it is over - it feels so long ago, but also like yesterday that collins303 pinged me this email of some Jimmy Brayks guy that needed help with a radio and forum thing. The last 48 hours of NSB were some of the best days of my life - reading how much NSB and its music meant to listeners and the happiness our station, events and community brought you. Lots of great achievements and it's all thanks to you, listeners, DJs, forum members and ultimately breaks music lovers. We've hosted parties at festivals like Glade, all over London, all over the UK, the World - Miami, Sydney, Paris, Peckham. It's been funny, sad, tough, a disaster financially, it's ruined relationships, I've missed important dinners and occasions, but it's been worth it and I wouldn't change anything (well, OK, maybe a few things.) but we've done so much and created so much from nothing.ħ,000+ days of streaming audio, thousands of hours of MP3s, 25,000+ forum members, nearly 2 Million forum posts, a BBC Radio 1 People's Choice award, at least 5 (I think) Breakspoll awards (so we can safely NSB Radio was the best breakbeat radio station in the world). I'm gonna miss the 3am messages telling me that the radio is down, or the hundreds of emails per week that I have managed to ignore for 20 years. I'm gonna miss chatting shit / arguing on the internet while my girlfriend / friends / family wonder what I'm doing. NSB forum started around the year 2000, so over half my life NSB has been part of me, and for the last 18 years NSB Radio has been the soundtrack to my life. But I need to be thankful for the many awesome people I've met through NSB, who I've created lifelong friendships with, and who I've had great times all over the world with, thanks to breaks. I'm so, so sad that I am closing off such a large part of my life.
