Pushing the envelope in a Islamist country, Capital FM had become a symbol for a modern Sudan, starting as a house music station and then becoming a cultural hub.
They had even begun hosting parties with DJs and bands where young Sudanese could quite literally let their hair down, but since the militarization of Khartoum, government censors have been taking the station off the air for hours at a time.
It is seen a clear warning sign that soon, security forces will break down Capital FM’s doors and confiscate everything.
