From underground misfits to global hitmakers, โHit That Perfect Beat - The Story of London Recordsโ is a thrilling, no-holds-barred journey through one of the most influential eras in British music, and the maverick label that helped define it.
London Records didnโt just follow trends: it created them. Born in the chaos of the early 1980s, the label was fuelled by instinct, risk-taking, and big personalities. What followed was a cultural explosion that would shape pop, dance, and club music for decades to come.
Through exclusive interviews and first-hand accounts, journalist Siรขn Pattenden speaks with the artists, executives, and insiders who lived through it all. From the DIY beginnings of Bananarama and Blancmange, to the global domination of Fine Young Cannibals, this is the inside story of how hits were made, and sometimes lost.
Along the way, legendary voices like Pete Tong reveal how a generation-defining sound emerged from late-night clubs and record shop imports, while artists like Goldie and Orbital show how London Records helped push electronic music into the mainstream, changing the sound of modern Britain forever.
But this isnโt just a story of success. Itโs a story of ambition, excess, and the realities of fame. From the dizzying highs of chart-topping acts like East 17 to the personal and creative struggles behind the scenes, the series pulls back the curtain on an industry where fortunes were made, and sometimes lost, overnight.
Youโll also discover how the label helped launch bold, era-defining acts like All Saints and Sugababes, while navigating the shifting tides of the music business, from vinyl to CDs to the digital revolution that changed everything.
This isnโt just music history, itโs the story of how culture moves. Itโs about rebellion, creativity, identity, and the power of a great song to change lives. Whether you lived through these moments or are discovering them for the first time, this podcast puts you right in the room where it happened: the deals, the risks, the parties, the breakthroughs.
Packed with unforgettable stories, iconic tracks, and the people who were really there, โHit That Perfect Beat - The Story of London Records Storyโ is unmissable listening.

An artist’s story is usually told in pages or on a screen.
But what if they told it themselves — through the songs that made them?
Library Presents: Discography Autobiography flips the script. Instead of a traditional interview, we ask artists to soundtrack their own lives. The tracks that changed them. The moments that defined them.
From Hip-Hop legends and producers to cultural historians, each guest curates the music that shaped their journey — and reveals the stories behind every selection.
