1994 unfolded without a clear plan. In January, I submitted my UCAS form, hoping for a spot in university. A trip to Falmouth in April with a fellow photography enthusiast, Gerwyn, sparked the idea of a fresh start. After completing my BTEC ND Media in May, I found myself in Cornwall come September—quite the leap from my Newport roots. Bid farewell to my trusty tangomobile; it wasn’t fit for the journey.
Settling into a shared house, my humble abode boasted the smallest and most affordable room—a bit damp, but dubbed “Cornish mould” by the landlord. As I embarked on my Broadcasting Studies degree, the house transformed into a hub of creativity, with a makeshift darkroom in the utility room. Amidst Lynx Java-scented chaos, I navigated the challenges of academia and adulthood.
My love for radio remained steadfast, prompting a visit to Trellisk Hospital Radio in Truro with broadcasting pals, Jono and Emma. Disappointed by the absence of a suitable radio outlet, I grappled with the changes at Radio 1, mourning the loss of familiar voices like Gary Davies.
Taking a break from DJing, I immersed myself in observing other DJs, learning invaluable lessons from the energetic “Mad Andy” and exploring new nightlife spots with friends. French Connection, Lloyds, and Ritzys became our go-to haunts, with late-night pit stops for post-party snacks in Newport and Falmouth.
Musically, collaborations dominated the charts, signaling a shift in pop culture. Now, let’s dive into the sonic landscape of 1994:

As we bid adieu to 1994, I extend my gratitude to friends from Newport and Falmouth for making this year unforgettable.
