Escape from New York (1981) directed by John Carpenter

New York 1977

Roni Size and Reprazent in New York, 1997: In 1997, the year Roni Size / Reprazent's 'New Forms' was released, dance music was in the charts as much as the clubs. Crossover acts like The Prodigy, The Chemical Brothers and Leftfield took their cues from the rave scene, but were accessible enough for rock-oriented crowds and drive-time audiences. Drum & bass, however, was more mysterious. 'New Forms' was an album that marked a drastic shift, winning the Mercury Prize that year. | KOOL FM
