Step In Time. Conversations With Kenny 'Sting' King

Sting is the man who founded the seminal Hardcore/Jungle raves Life Utopia and Telepathy. If you’re of a certain age, you might know his voice from pirate radio rave adverts, but you probably don’t know his name or what he looks like. Sting owned the iconic Stratford Rex venue and was involved with Déjà Vu FM radio station, now recognised as a cornerstone in the Garage and Grime scenes, launching countless crews and hosting numerous famous - and infamous on-air moments. And now he is the subject and the fuel of this new raw and real deal IDEA book. Alongside flyers from Sting’s personal collection are images from VHS tapes, recorded across multiple warehouse raves and club nights at the Wax Club and Club UN. Much of this has never been broadcast or made public before.
