About

This is Pump Radio

Underground electronic music radio from the UK. We champion house, UK garage house, old school and 90s throwbacks — live DJ sets, producer showcases, know-how and stories from the people who live and breathe the scene. Formerly RawSessions.com, with DAB Digital Radio on the way.

What we're about

Real music, real people, no filler

The sound

House, UK garage house, tech, old school and 90s throwbacks. The tracks that move the floor — classics and fresh cuts side by side.

Live & on demand

Tune in for live sessions, or catch up any time on Mixcloud. DJ sets, producer showcases and guest mixes, all in one place.

By the scene, for the scene

Built with the DJs, producers and promoters who keep the culture alive. We give the underground a proper platform — and a bigger one.

DAB on the way

We've applied for our DAB Digital Radio licence and we're getting ready to bring the same underground energy to the dial across the UK.

Our story

From bedroom stream to the dial

Pump Radio began life as RawSessions.com — a labour of love built by DJs and producers who wanted a home for the music they cared about, played properly and without compromise. No algorithms, no lowest-common-denominator playlists; just great records, selected by people who know them inside out.

Over time it grew from a stream into a community: resident selectors, guest mixes, producer showcases, event coverage and a steady stream of know-how for anyone learning the craft. The rebrand to Pump Radio marks the next chapter — a bigger platform, a sharper identity, and a DAB Digital Radio licence application in progress to bring the sound to even more ears.

Through it all the mission hasn't changed: put the underground front and centre, support the artists who drive it, and keep the party going — whether you're on the dancefloor at 2am or making a cup of tea at midnight.

Pump Radio is owned and operated by PacketPipe Ltd (Company No. 12105604).
