  • Henrik Schwarz – Where We At (Part 2) feat. Ame, Dixon, Derrick Carter

    A lot of people talk about music ‘taking you on a journey’. Often, it’s just PR speil, but sometimes, you really are in for one heck of a voyage. Henrik Schwarz’s Where We At (Part 2) – featuring Âme, Dixon, and Derrick Carter – is a track that fits this very bill. After spending most…

  • Sock-knockin’, road-trippin’

    Every now and then you discover something that knocks your socks off. For me, it’s currently YouandEwans’ track ‘1988’. Maybe I’ve heard it before, I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I’m going on a three-day Bavarian adventure from Monday. Whatever it is, this song has literally injected sunshine into my morning. Hopefully it’ll do the…

  • Another time, another place

    Music has an incredible power to transport you. If you close your eyes, a track can (at the risk of sounding cliché and revealing my inner hippie) take you to another dimension. I’ve always been good at daydreaming, and this little piece of harmonic beauty so swiftly transports me into reverie. It’s there that I’m…

  • I Exist Because of You – Henrik Schwarz

    Maybe it’s a little premature, but I’m starting to get pretty excited about my closing party extravaganza in Ibiza next month. And, after watching Henrik Schwarz in action at the Roundhouse last night, I’ve spent the majority of the day getting reacquainted with his music. This little baby of a track has sunshine fun and…

  • Bimbo Jones Puts The Party Into Lott’s Mama Do

    Straying from house and into slightly foreign territory, I’m going to stick my neck out and say I like Pixie Lott’s recent chart stormer Mama Do.  However with what can only be described as eclectic taste, and although not a music snob; it’s got to be UK mixmasters Bimbo Jones’s impressive revamp. I heard it…

  • Laurent Wolf – No Stress

    Tuesday – it’s the day of the week I definitely find the hardest.  It’s neither the beginning or the middle, let alone anywhere near the weekend.  It quite literally keeps me in limbo.  Thankfully, French DJ Laurent Wolf has encapsulated my feelings and shaken me out of my cyclical coma with his uplifting and rather…

  • Deviate – Manuel Tur & D Play

    Whilst researching turn-tables, I got side-tracked and came across Deviate by German DJ, Mauel Tur and D Play.  And it’s awesome.   Ok, so it doesn’t really do very much, but that’s exactly the reason i love it.  It’s the perfect (but minimal) deep house track that’s going to lend itself very well to my…

  • Funkerman – Speed Up

    Amongst discovering many new, amazing dance tracks whilst sitting on the awesome Sairee Beach in Thailand, I was reminded of a few old ones.  In particular, Funkerman’s Speed Up blasted out as two fire throwers twisted and spun their flames.   It’s an old one, but a very good one and has been promptly added…

  • Escape the cold with Deadmau5 & Jaded

    Over the last couple of days I’ve been starting to think about my 2009 trip to Ibiza.  It’s not a holiday I want to get into doing every year (if nothing for other than the fact I simply couldn’t afford to) but this year, my flights are already booked to see in the big 30.…
