**DJ Lucky B** is the visionary **brainchild** and founder of **BASE FM** (basefmuk / basefm_mcr), Manchester's essential underground radio station championing the city's thriving electronic music scene.

Growing up in **London**, Lucky B was immersed in the raw energy of the capital's legendary **pirate radio** culture during its golden eras. From the tower blocks and rooftops of estates across the city, illegal broadcasts blasted jungle, garage, house, bass, and emerging sounds that mainstream radio ignored—especially Black music and underground vibes in the '80s and '90s. This rebellious, community-driven world shaped his passion: tuning into stations that defied the rules, discovering new talent, and feeling the pulse of youth culture firsthand. Those pirate roots—cat-and-mouse games with authorities, makeshift transmitters, and pure grassroots power—inspired him deeply, teaching the value of platforms that give voice to the unheard and keep scenes alive against the odds.

Channeling that London pirate spirit, Lucky B relocated and channeled his experience into creating something enduring in Manchester. He launched **BASE FM**too a, modern hub to echo that underground heritage—fostering emerging DJs, delivering high-energy broadcasts, and building community in the North West's electronic heartland. Broadcasting on **DAB 100.8** in Manchester, via the BASE FM app/website, and streaming worldwide, the station keeps the fire burning with pulsating rhythms, fresh cuts, and immersive mixes across house, bass, garage, and more.

Under Lucky B's guidance, BASE FM features a killer lineup of residents and guests, including the acclaimed **Trident Sound System** progressive house residency, alongside hyped club nights (like those at Lola Lo), events, and shoutouts that connect the dots between airwaves and dancefloors. As a DJ and host himself, he drops authentic sets live on air and fuels the station's momentum.

Lucky B turned pirate radio inspiration into a thriving, community-powered force—proving the underground never dies, it just evolves. Big respect to the man who grew up on London's illegal airwaves and built BASE FM to keep Manchester moving.

Big up DJ Lucky B—the pirate kid who became the station boss. ️
