Tower Block Dreams

Season 1 Episode 2: Ghetto on Sea

This edition features emcees Killer and Gambit who both live in council estates in Southend. Killer runs Y2K FM, a pirate radio station in Southend that plays house and garage music and broadcasts to Essex, Kent and East London. His feud with DJ Funky from Charm FM, a rival pirate station, leads him to remove their radio transmitter from the roof of a nearby tower block. Killer's attempt to organise a rave ends in disaster and he loses his temper. Aspiring star Gambit hopes that his MC'ing career will give him an alternative lifestyle that doesn’t revolve around the drug scene and court appearances, enabling him to achieve some stability in his life, away from all the arguments that go with an illegal business. The film follows both stories as they pursue their passions for music.
