:: Speed Up ::

I took the opportunity to re-visit some of the tunes from the last month mainly due to the positive feedback received when I've spun them. Strong remixes from Vandalism, Laidback Luke and the fantastic Wolfgang Gartner dominated the line up and it's clear that fans of the show are feeling that 'Dirty House' vibe.

I sneakily previewed my remix of Funkerman's 'Speed Up' for the FIRE listeners as well as playing my bootleg of Rudenko - available in the downloads section.

Here's this week's tracklisting:

:: The Return Of Laidback Luke ::

Laidback Luke: Move the house...

There's not much wrong in the world when you get to play amazing tunes, on a great radio station, for lovely people! Plus, I get to chat to talented superstar DJ's such as Laidback Luke.

I had Luke on the show last summer, where he was in the middle of a gruelling schedule of DJ dates, remix duties and bootleg creation. 6 months later we are eagerly waiting his arrival to play at 2020 Rocks in Bournemouth this coming Friday 23rd, so it was a perfect chance to catch up and here about forthcoming projects. Not that he gave much away!

Out of our chat, I was very pleased to hear that 'Show Be/Me Love' is due out in March (has the momentum been lost?) and more importantly his fabulous bootleg of The Korgis will see an official release in 09. Brilliant! Will he be teaming up with Timbaland? Well something big is going on...... that was all he was prepared to divulge.

A superb DJ and very talented prodcuer, as well as being a fabulous guest. Check him out on Friday night @ 2020 and hit up his website for more info. laidbackluke.com
