Weekly Transmission 44!

I See You Baby!

Welcome to another jam-packed episode of the Weekly Transmission. This week's Podcast comes from Dutch talent Rafaël Frost, mixing up uplifting trance with chunky electro house to devastating effect. He's one of our favourite producers from the world of trance, and we predict big things for him!

We finally caught up with deep house guru Jimpster to chat about all things Freerange and why 2008 has been such an important year for him and his artists, had more Dutch fun getting shown around Amsterdam by progressive masters 16 Bit Lolitas, checked out I Love Techno in Gent in Belgium and spoke with rising local heroes Das Pop, got inside the mind of minimal techno upstart Matt Tolfrey, and discovered more lovely Welsh tech house thanks to Tom Demac over in New Talent.

There's News & Reviews on New Order, Moby, Todd Terry, David K, Smith & Selway, Chibuku, Richard Dinsdale, Dr. Dre & Eminem, mulletover, Yo Majesty, Josh Wink, Above & Beyond, Streetlife DJs and loads more, while the Competition section is brimming over with new chances to win over 100 CD and goodies from Hed Kandi, Frantic and Deadmau5, and final chances to win tickets to see Justice at the sold-out Mixmag Xmas Party, VIP tickets to Essence Festival in Holland, plus loads of hard dance vinyl from Tranzlation!

Finally there's new videos in DT-TV from Booka Shade and Beck, and classics from the likes of Faithless, Mylo, Dr. Alban, Leftfield, Kurtis Mantronik and Commander Tom!

Get stuck in
