Weekly Transmission 38!

ATTENTION! We have just launched our long over-due The UK's Top 40 DJs Poll on an unsuspecting nation!

We're giving you the chance to help find out who the nation's favourite DJs are - rather than the world's - and in the process you could win £1000s of prizes from Pioneer, Ministry Of Sound, DJDownload.com and UDG! CLICK HERE TO VOTE

We've been busy as hell getting the whole thing together, but we've still had time to get our hands on a shit-hot Podcast from techno-god Christian Smith (recorded while playing to over 10,000 people at Brazil's Skol Beats festival!), nip over to the USA to check out Burning Man festival in Nevada, chat with Swedish electro prodigy John Dahlbäck, discover a secretive beach club near Barcelona, check out some techno Liverpool-style, talk to those Toolroom guys about their amazing 2008, and find out about groovy bastard Hauswerks in our New Talent section.

Meanwhile there's news and reviews on Chris Lake, M.I.A., Janette Slack, K90, Snowbombing, Buraka Som Sistema, The Streets, Solid Steel, Judge Jules, Fingerlickin', Beastie Boys, Peaches, Eminem and loads more, plus competitions with chances to win goodies from Justice, Fierce Angel, 100% Dynamite, Glasshouse and Loopmasters.

Finally check out the DT-TV section for newly added videos from Foreign Beggars, M.I.A., The Streets, MGMT, The Count & Sinden, Example, Kano, Bryon Stingily, Chemical Brothers, Members Of Mayday, Roni/Size Reprazent, Claude VonStroke, Snow and Dr. Alban!
