What? Who? Why?
David J. Griffiths first cut his teeth in the world of audio back in 1978, when armed with his trusty Philips N2208, he would record clips from TV adverts and shows (particularly ‘The Kenny Everett Video Show’) and splice together his favourite clips, adding his own commentary.
By the latter half of the 1980s, he was performing in local bands in Surrey (most notably The Twist and In The Wild), and by 1990, he moved to Crawley, home of The Cure, in order to focus on his band Final Hour, a band that still exists today as a solo project.
The early 2000s saw David getting involved with the new/burgeoning mashup scene, and he was a regular on the UK station XFM radio, and also provided audio for MTV Mash, a show that ran for a short time on MTV Europe.
2012 saw David getting involved with producing and hosting podcasts, most notably Strange Times and The Bitter Sound, the latter of which got the attention of Jon Holmes, who subsequently invited him to join the team that created the multi-award-winning dark comedy/news satire show The Skewer on BBC Radio 4.
David is currently part of the broadcast and presenter team on the legendary ex-pirate station Radio Jackie, which has been operating as a legitimate independent local radio station in the Kingston-Upon-Thames area since 2003.
Since the start of 2025, David’s been presenting The Bitter Sound Experience here on the wonderful Noisebox Radio. The Bitter Sound Experience broadcasts live each Wednesday at 8pm (UK time, folks). The show playlist is a mix of post-punk, goth, punk, indie, electronica, shoegaze, alternative rock, coldwave, various forms of metal, and other audio delights…
