:: 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

:: Can't Get Enough ::

My last Pure Fire show of 08 and a chance to review some of the big club tunes as well as preview some future classics. I kicked the session off with a new bootleg which sees new Data release 'Rudenko' up against the classic vocals of 'Soulsearcher'. I played out a few of my other bootlegs from the year as well as some of the biggest tunes from some of my sets in 08. Terrific feedback as always. Thanks.

I had some amazing guest on the radio shows this year, so a huge thanks goes out to all of them and to the labels and PR people for sorting everything out. Finally and most importantly, thanks to you lot for listening to the shows, enjoying the gigs and the new tunes, as well as downloading and supporting my mixes, mash-ups and solo material. Have a great New Year and catch you in 2009.

I kicked the show off with a fresh festive bootie to get us all in the mood for Christmas. The brilliant new tune from Kurd Maverick (his take on New Order's 'Blue Monday') mashed up with the haunting vocals from Aled Jones 'Walking In The Air'. Where would Aled Jones be now if it wasn't for that record? As a Christmas gift from me to you, I've made the bootie available immediately in my 'Downloads' section. Grab and enjoy!

Kurd Maverick v.s Aled Jones

:: Blue Tuesday ::

A great line-up of top dance music producers on tonight's show, with new material from Kurd Maverick headlining the pack. The top German DJ has finally got his re-working of the New Order classic 'Blue Monday' set for release on Data. Nice one. The package includes a stonking Vandalism Remix as well as his original bootleg version. My personal favourite is the original studio mix so it was great to feature that on the show tonight. It's gonna be big!

THE MIXBUSTER 'End Of Year Mix 2008'

Christmas Day 8pm 'til 10pm

New Year's Eve 10pm 'til Midnight

:: Nothin' But Love ::

The love continues for Sander's new effort, which sees him sample Robbie Williams. Yep, it's really Robbie! My fave tune still remains the Markus Gardeweg track, but is now clearly given a run for its money with the latest brilliant release from Data - the floor mashing Rudenko 'Everybody'. This tune will really take off.

Sander teams up with the 'real' Robbie Williams!

We stayed on the Data records vibe for our guest mix, which saw a replay of a fantastic megamix from the gang at Data and a mini-mix from Fonzerelli. Quality tunes for a Tuesday night as always.

Have a great week.

:: Final Departure ::

Ken Sinfield (2 November 1932 - 12th November 2008)

My thanks to everyone for your kind words and cards of sympathy over this past week.  My Dad was clearly well loved and highly regarded amongst all that knew him.  After his battle with Alzheimers, which can never be won, he died peacefully last Wednesday with a legacy of love, laughs and daft stories.

I hope that his condition meant he knew nothing about his final few weeks and that he's now walking the dog, catching up with his Father, and finally getting to know his Mother.

Love you Dad.

:: Pure Quality ::

A return to the FIRE airwaves last night after my brief escape. I plowed my way through the tunes last night, in a bid to bring you a cross section of upfront house and electro tunes, plus some quality vocal house and cheeky bootlegs. A stack of texts and calls to the studio throughout the evening kept me very busy. Thanks for getting involved.

On Air with the 'Wheels Of Plastic'!

Just after 9pm I featured a new Mixbuster creation - where I've just ripped up Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' into a dirty piece of electro nonsense. Not the first person to do this I know, but it needed a spin. Alongside this was the absolutely brilliant 'Electro Sandman' by Dunproofin' - a purveyor of mighty find mash-ups and mixes and a huge, huge talent! Check his blog out here.

Jason Herd, a guest on the show a few weeks ago, supplied the guest mix @ 10pm, which provided a quality end to the evening session on FIRE107.6FM.

:: Knight night! ::

A great response as always for the tunage on last night's show. Thanks for your feedback. The highlight of course was my very special guest, DJ/Producer and record label boss Mark Knight. Mark will be celebrating the 2nd birthday of Toolroom Knights at the Ministry Of Sound, London this coming Saturday (11th Oct). A massive session is planned to celebrate his fantastic year and the launch of his current Toolroom Knights album - of which we gave away a signed copy!

www.djmarkknight.com

Mark chatted about some new projects as well as enjoying the recognition he's had for his cover of the Laurent Garnier classic 'Man With A Red Face' that he released with Funkagenda - which has just been voted as Ibiza's number one track for 2008 in the recent DJ Awards.

Cahill were on the guest mix from 10pm, so all in all a cracker of a show for you lot. I hope you enjoyed it.

:: Lazy Like Sunday Morning ::

Lazy afternoons only come second to lazy Sunday mornings. I don't know about you, but there's nothing better than a very slow and lazy start to a Sunday. Maybe read the papers, a bit of soft tunage on the stereo and a croissant or two, all accompanied by a few espressos.

'Snoop Dog was feeling weally woof!'

No snooze time for me this Sunday, as I'm in for Daniel 'BH' Baker this weekend, covering his breakfast show on FIRE 107.6FM. I'll hopefully get a coffee in, and maybe a bacon bap (or two - ahem!), but I won't be sound asleep like this lucky old dawg!

Tune in to see if I manage to wake up for the show!
