Rude 88.2

Post by Deadlyuk » Thu Mar 16, 2023 8:47 pm

Bit quiet on here lately, so I thought I’d share the set below - one of many on Rude this year. Can’t pick it up on the FM as I am no longer in London, but would love to know what it’s being picked up like. Phoneline seems busy enough

Rude is a quality station! They were definitely still on 88.2 a couple months back as I was picking them up in Central London on my travels, not sure about recently though?

Gonna give this a listen, thanks for sharing! 👍

Ah really. I expect it will be disconnected shortly

Agree with the comments above - Rude is an amazing station with a long llegacy. Sound track to my teenage years, 20s and 30s

Wasn't there a Turkish station on 88.2 for a few years in-between and could it be them trying to come back?

Yeah there was, I remember that too. I assumed it had gone when the took the original 88.2 dial back

They are live now, but not in London, so can’t check the FM

Neither am I and when I lived in Windsor I never could get 88.2 but cyndicut 90.6 was loud and clear a few years ago but also rude where on 88.6 at the same time as 88.2 when they were last on and maybe only interested in 88.6 now?

Not around London nowadays, but Rude is one of may favs. They never sounded like the other DnB stations, alway on the slightly more darker futuristic tip. They have been a bit sporadic in transmissions for years, but that in some ways adds to the rush when you tune in and they are on :tup

Well in North Essex only Radio 2 is there. :(

Thank god for the internet!

Well at least if the FM is on there should be some great live sets this weekend!

Nice 2001 set I uploaded the other day to mix cloud if you want a listen - from minidisc too so pretty clear. If you like it, give me a follow. I try to upload most of Rude’s live sets and have got many going back as far as 1995 still in the upload que!
