2 Many DJs (live)
In times where moms give their sons and daughters DJ-courses for their birthdays and bootlegging has become an Olympic sport, it is nice to see a record that sets a new standard in the genre of mix-albums: ‘2 Many DJ’s’ from Belgian groove-gurus Soulwax.

Above & Beyond
There are DJs who can rock a party, a club, a festival. And there are dance acts that can write songs that will bring out the goose bumps in you. But there’s only one band that can do both: Above & Beyond. This three-piece have remixed Madonna, won Essential Mix of the Year, and headlined in front of one million people in Rio de Janeiro

Alex Metric
With modern electronic music, there's sometimes a tendency to take things, shall we say, 'a little too seriously'. All too often producers and deejays get caught up so heavily in the idea of being elitist and 'underground' that they forget the idea of music altogether - that it should be built to be enjoyed by as many people as possible.

Armin Van Buuren
At the age of 10, Armin was already writing music on a computer won by his mother. Inspired by what he had seen his uncle doing on his own computer, Armin was hooked to dance music immediately. What followed was a meteoric rise to success through sheer hard work and determination.

The Bloody Beetroots Death Crew 77
Close your eyes and imagine, if you will, the bastard son of the Misfits and Daft Punk. As gruesome as the act of conceptionmay appear, the union would generate the most grandiose of offspring. A formidable force, not unlike the Bloody Beetroots.

Carl Cox
In 1977, aged 15, Carl got a set of turntables and began working as a mobile DJ. A musical ambassador since he was in short trousers, a professional DJ since his early teens, a veteran of acid house and a champion of techno, Carl Cox emits a love of his work that is dangerously infectious.

Chase & Status (live)
How many artists/producers can count Jay Z, Snoop Dogg and Pharell as fans as well as drum and bass’ finest Andy C, Hype and Pendulum; enjoy heavy rotation in the hands of dub-step royalty such as N-Type and Skream; and have each release enthusiastically supported by Annie Mac and Zane Lowe?

The Chew LiPs
WHOA, the noughties are coming to a predictably bland end, aren’t they? Predictable bands playing predictable songs from predictable albums going predictably nowhere. Somewhere in summer 2009, under a barrage of average records from over-hyped pale-pop imitators, pop music lost its bite, with any number of pretenders to the throne blurring into one all-encompassing one-dimensional musical mass of beige.
