In this deep-dive episode of Loud & Unfiltered, we sit down with Mr C – pioneer of British house music, front-man of The Shamen and co-founder of the iconic London club The End. From pirate-radio beginnings and the first Acid House raves to shaping one of the world’s most influential nightclubs, Mr C tells the unfiltered story of how London became the beating heart of underground music.
He shares rare stories of Camden Palace, Clink Street, the birth of rave culture, and how The End set a new global standard for sound, inclusivity and community.
