In this episode, I sit down with RayJuss — a seasoned digger, DJ, and former pirate radio regular who now calls Cheltenham home. We talk about his journey through London’s underground music scenes, his time running the vinyl-only night Off The Record, and how his relationship with music continues to evolve.

Ray reflects on the unique rhythms that inspire him — from deep house and broken beat to UKG and beyond — and shares some powerful stories about the search for lost tracks, the thrill of finding long-forgotten gems, and the ongoing drive to keep the culture alive.

Topics we cover include:

- Growing up with pirate radio and cassette culture
- Rebuilding his music memory using old tapes and Shazam
- The joys and challenges of promoting your own night
- Making the leap from bedroom DJ to community builder
- The importance of reaching out, connecting, and sharing
