"Welcome, Everybody! This is 'The Radiotron'..."
"From 1983 to 1985, Radiotron was located at 715 South Park View across the street from MacArthur Park. Carmelo Alvarez opened its doors to the local youth who were being cited for break dancing on sidewalks or writing graffiti on walls. The center soon gained a reputation for being a safe space for breakdancing, popping, graffiti art, MCing and DJing during the mid-80s, becoming known as the first West Coast Hip Hop youth center.
Radiotron was also the home of the movies 'Breakin' and 'Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo.' Not to mention the center of the first Graffiti Art Crews in Los Angeles, as documented in 'History of Graffiti in LA' by Wisk, 'The Other Side' by Ruben Martinez and 'City of Quartz' by Mike Davis.
In 1985, despite community efforts to save the building, Radiotron was demolished for the construction of Park View Mall. But its spirit lives on through the people who were there."
In 2013, the original Radiotron's culture is brought back to life in Lisbon, under the name of "The Radiotron".
