Video: VBS.TV Explores the London Pirate Radio Scene with Grime Acts Jammer & J2K
From Rory at Vice/VBS.TV:
"We've been fascinated by the London pirate radio scene for a while now. It's a story that features a crew of kids breaking on to rooftops and getting radio geeky by erecting terrestrial radio stations and old school antennas and then using modern technology to spread the word and the music. It's a story that had to be told, so we did and it's called London Pirate Frequencies."
