In New Music We Trust

So Friday night was the epic 12 hours of none-stop dance music, live from the Steel City.

The last time we DJd fully live on Radio 1 was actually the first time we were ever on the station, an Essential Mix live from our club night back in 2008 - seems like years ago! Well it was years ago, but never-the-less we were massively excited to be back playing in front of our Radio 1 fam, and of course a room packed full of Sheffield ravers.

We had a gig in London first with the one & only A-Trak, and after spending the duration of dinner with him explaining what exactly "Big Fat Gypsy Wedding" was, we played the gig & hopped in the car for a mammoth 3 hour drive up north.

A couple of friends of ours, Luke & Mark, otherwise known as the Union DJs came for the ride too - here's a rather tanned looking Jaymo with them in the back!

After a quick toilet stop at the services, we were raving up the M1 to what sounded like a hardcore remix of Pon De Floor! Locked to Radio 1...

We arrived in Sheffield about 30mins before we were due to start at 4am, and after recording a few links we were mega hyped to hit the decks!

It was amazing that so many people had stayed so late - Kissy was destroying it and people were genuinely there for the duration, still mega up for it. We had so much fun it was ridiculous and lots of people have been asking about where they can find our tracklisting etc. You can listen again AND see the full tracklisting here, our set & Heidi's is up there - so you can re-live the magic!

We're back hosting a really special new producer BBC Introducing Masterclass, from the famous Abbey Road studios on Thursday afternoon! You can watch it all online too. So if you're a budding producer we suggest you lock-in! We'll also be back on-air on Thursday night from 9pm, speaking to Pedro Winter aka Busy P & Gildas, the owner of Parisian super-label Kitsune - in a new producer special, after our Abbey Road session.

See you there!
