Are You Dancin'?


Dance music. Friend or foe? FRIEND FRIEND FRIEND!!! And I don't mean the kind favoured by Westies in their siiiiiiik VN's, or lycra loving super store Supre. I'm talking intelligent, fun, party starting, memory making dance music. Minimal, deep house, tech house, ultimate tech trance, ok I made that last one up, but whatever it I love it all . Not as much as my mate Pete Tong and the weekly radio show on BBC1 - Essential Mix. Running since 1993, the show, features some of the world's best Dj's and producers mixing an exclusive two hour set. This sexy little website has all mixes and track listings since 2007. Sa-weet! My favourite for this year have to be Jesse Rose's set from January. This holds special memory's after seeing him play at Billboards with all my favourite people in the world, losing my marbles on the dance floor, writing Jesse a love letter inviting him to come to Revolver with us (he wisely declined) and ending up drinking coffee in a Turban at 11am. I've played this more times then I can remember and it makes me all warm, fuzzy and boppy . Coco Tong approved.

P.s things get especially rad after 30min mark
Also check out Steve Lawler's set, a bit techy, a bit progressive, a bit tribal, a bit awesome! This has me totally pumped to to see him at Playground Weekend 2010.

So play it loud and dance in your bedroom like the neighbours are watching.
