Rinse is at the centre of a vast musical community. As genres, artists and scenes evolve and fragment, so Rinse remains locked to the pulse of the underground. Inspiring and nurturing people to create the music that they want to hear, the results speak for themselves.
Est.1994. Transmitting uncompromising and innovative music out of its East London heartland, it started life as a pirate station established by a group of friends wanting to share the music that inspired them

Slimzee doesn’t get enough props for rinse

[@silewis9396]

Doesn't get enough props for grime either cos he ain't loud

[@lovinglifeeach1teach151]

I used to wish slimzee was my older brother🤦‍♂️🤣 literally provided the soundtrack to my youth and still to this day theres not a day that goes past when i dont wish i could go back and live it all again and live thru such historic musical scenarios and settings💯 legendary

"The graft is not a joke" - Big up Geeneus & Slimzee

[@GavinRamonShow]

Love Slim. Since hearing his mental health going off the rails I can understand him now. Really glad he is in better spirits now cos he was a huge founding part of a British institution. Got mad love for him now.

[@MarcusGoldenBarnes]

Toppa top guys, from behind-the-scenes getting the station out there to making tunes, DJing and bringing untold artists through. Architects!

[@djunclephill422]

I remember Kool fm was going off air for good and there saying it’s a new beginning. The rest is history 🥶🫡🙌🏾

[@TakeMeBackPirateRadio]

Foundation bizznizz! Pressure FM 100.4 was the one! Big up the legends Gee & Slim! Salute!

[@riskoebeats]

I was today years old when I found out Geeneus is the producer of Slimzee’s infamous 8 Bar Dubplate

[@riskoebeats]

I would love to watch a movie based on this time period with young Slimzee & Geeneus as characters. And what happened setting up the stations all the madnesses crazy story’s being acted out as well as the sets and the raves etc & payg wiley etc. But actually done properly not like Targets Grime Kids was awful the clothes etc just didn’t seem legit at all. Would love to see one based on the real ppl, or a series would be absolutely class.

[@TakeMeBackPirateRadio]

DEDICATED WARRIORS!

[@riskoebeats]

I could listen to geeneus & slim talk about this stuff all day. It’s so interesting. Uncle Dugs has a great book that captures allot of it.

[@GetDarker]

Large up 30 years of Rinse. Salute Wizzbit & Slimzos!

[@bigwhistla]

We lived miles away so didn’t know about rinse. We had our own pirate such great memories. You guys are next level I really enjoyed listening to the stories. These need to be told it’s history !!

[@hadi_dazza]

Rinse Dons 🫡📡🏴‍☠

[@gtrilly1039]

Ur right but change it to pioneers

[@garryburns0178]

Really great to listen to these two. Climbing onto roofs seemed to be the in thing for a kid with nothing to do back then. But this lot had a plan. They followed it through and came out the other end with the reward. I don't think many people will realise the history this lot have created and Thier story will go on forever. A massive stamp in history. Shows passion, hard work and determination from these two and all the guys around them who believed this was all they had to live for. Big up love the videos . Looking forward to the next show. Let's go!!!!!!!!👊👊👊

Took me down memory lane. I vaguely remember when I first discovered rinse in around 2000/2001 and listening to a scratchy and (I think) biggy pitbull set where they were taking it in turns to MC and DJ
