Radio & Media
In addition to their live work, Scrash came to national prominence in May 1992 when a previously unreleased demo version of their track "Funtime" won the "Soundclash" competition on GLR Radio (BBC 94.9)'s weekly Gary Crowley show. The song was then played numerous times on the show in the following weeks. Previous winners of the "Soundclash" competition include Suede and Sidi Bou Said.
The video to "Funtime"(now also available on YouTube)was also aired on early evening Central TV during a focus on bands in the West Midlands.

Famous quotes containing the words radio and/or media:
“from above, thin squeaks of radio static,
The captured fume of space foams in our ears—”
—Hart Crane (1899–1932)
“Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
