Pirate Radio Playlist
Music and piracy are intertwined. While we are recording songs, those outside the law are broadcasting a signal to everyone who will listen to them. This playlist focuses on one of the earliest forms of music in the gray zone of the law: pirate radio.
During the heyday of radio, pirate radio stations broadcast unlicensed signals, in some cases even from international waters. While pirate radio stations still exist in some forms today, the rebellious nature of music creators and fans is still bubbling beneath the surface of the industry.
This playlist from Spotify user Match Newitt appeals to anyone who has ever rebelled against something. Featuring artists from The Rolling Stones to the Beastie Boys, from Motley Crue to Frank Sinatra. If you’ve ever had to break some rules to keep streaming, you’ll find something to your liking in this playlist.
