For the fourth episode of Tales From A Disappearing City I am joined by my good friend Howard Slater aka Flint Michigan. I first met Howard in the mid 90's at Dead by Dawn which was a legendary monthly party that took place at the 121 squatted art and community Centre in Railton Road, Brixton. Howard has written extensively about his experiences within various strands of subculture in a wide variety of underground magazines. This journey began with his early love of independent labels such as Fast Product and Factory and progressed through the post punk and free improv scene in the 80's.

We discuss all these strands of alternative culture including the squatted landscape of London when he first arrived from Preston in 1984.
