Rob Dyson (FutureSounds FM / Forever Synth) The reason why My Pet Flamingo is so beloved, is its owners and artists are borne of, breathe, and bleed real music subcultures; and "Weekend Rush" is another authentic love letter to a culture survived by those that were there. The samples are inspired, as 'Sweetz FM' takes us on a journey through the old school 90s pirate rave experience while blending it with contemporary sample subculture, as explored in today's vaporwave. 10/10. Favorite track: Time Flies.

Hyper-Trax This is one well put together piece of kit. When 🤞 this gets a repress the 94.5 FM Live pirate radio mix REALLY deserves pressing too. 10/10. Favorite track: WEEKEND RUSH [94.5 FM - Live Pirate Radio Mix].

about

Anyone with a car stereo in London in the early 90s would be familiar with the sudden bursts of crackle and static, as mainstream FM broadcasts were drowned out by intermittent bursts of breakbeats that offered a window into a culture of underground dance music that spoke for London’s youth better than any of the commercial stations could ever hope to.

‘Pirate’ radio stations proliferated the tower blocks of inner city London, scattered across the metropolis. It was the sound of the estates, delivered on dub plates and white labels by local DJs. The likes of Weekend Rush - eulogised in the album’s title - Kool FM, Don FM, Dream FM and Energy, all squeezed into the FM dial, broadcasting the latest Jungle, Hardcore and Garage tunes to an eager audience, alienated by mainstream dance music.

With ‘Weekend Rush’, 3PeaceSweetz have attempted to recreate that energy, with a collection of tracks that encapsulate the sounds of rave on the radio. Inspired by those illegal transmissions and channelling a collective nostalgia for the 90s. 3PeaceSweetz place a refracted lens on the era, blending it with references to 21st Century internet culture - in many ways the spiritual successor to pirate radio. It’s Vapor(Rave) in thought and deed.

Locked on, tuned in. It’s the sound of the Weekend Rush.

The digital and cassette versions of the album come with a ‘mixed’ version of the album, by Enzo Van Baelen. Recorded on two Technics 1210s using white label ‘lathe cuts’ of the tracks, ‘Weekend Rush’ is repackaged to present the album as an authentic ‘Pirate Radio’ experience; complete with crackle and static. A window into the world of the (semi)fictional Sweetz FM.

Weekend Rush is dedicated to the new human massive: Poppy, Ryland, Teddy and Ollie... The World is Yours.
