Rinse.FM

make sure you go and check out the new and improved Rinse site. It's fantastic, seriously, this is the best representation of the culture of pirate radio, London and what we listen to. I truly admire Geeneus for all he's done for the music I love.



One of the most open and interesting interviews with the two people pioneering and champion Rinse (Geeneus & Sarah Lockhart) is featured on the site. Make sure you read that HERE

The scene in Brixton, south London, is his current focus. “It’s at the very point where I can see it going somewhere else. At the minute they’re calling it Dubbage. It’s nice, like house but with more energy.” He has spotted so many trends you wouldn’t bet against him. “Most people will say the music comes from London, but we can break it down further. Like between Roman [Road, east London] and Isle of Dogs comes grime. Croydon is Dubstep. That’s the very beginnings, d’you know what I mean?” He says he can pinpoint a grime rapper’s locality by the style of his delivery, “I could break it down to Plaistow, Leyton, Hackney, Bow, straight away.”
