The story of Craig David & UK Garage’s rise to chart domination at the turn of the new millennium.
Craig David plays back to back UK Garage classics, rewinding us to the height of UK Garage’s chart domination at the turn of the century. He charts the rise of the UK Garage genre from an underground club scene in the 1990s to a chart dominating pop movement. Plus Craig tells the story of his parallel musical journey, from playing Southhampton nightclubs on school nights, to recording ‘Re-Rewind’, performing on Top of the Pops and becoming a fully fledged pop star.
Craig also meets up with veteran Garage producer Sunship to find out how his remixes catapulted the likes of Sweet Female Attitude, Mis-Teeq, Victoria Beckham and Craig David himself.
Episode two covers music from Sweet Female Attitude, Daniel Beddingfield, Oxide & Neutrino and even Victoria Beckham. Craig remembers the first UK Garage number 1 and meets Sunship to find out how record labels jumped on the UK Garage sound, commissioning remixes of RnB artists. Plus find out how Garage became the Beckham’s favourite genre, and how the likes of So Solid Crew evolved the genre in a brand new direction!
