The first private radio station in the former Czechoslovakia, Radio 1, used to bridge the gap between communism and democracy in the early 90‘s for the generation of today’s forty-year-olds. Radio 1 sensitized their ears to new musical trends from around the world and created a platform for emerging home bands. It was a swell of accumulated energy; it was a break into the ether, frozen for many decades. Generations of young people aspiring to modern music and contemporary perception of the world were not keen on tuning Radio Luxemburg like their parents did. The time for the first anarchistic broadcast came. The radio was a landmark that turned into a cultural phenomenon unique in entire Europe!
