Weekly Transmission 68!

Buenos Dias Amigos,

We're out in Ibiza for the International Music Summit this week, which is an intimate conference for the dance music industry - and we'll talking with the likes of Richie Hawtin and Basement Jaxx while we're here over the next few days for our next DT-TV features. We'll also be rounding up the juiciest bits of news and gossip for y'all from the frontline, so keep your eyes peeled!

Summer has fully landed with an absolute scorcher of a Bank Holiday weekend, and there's no better way to soundtrack it than with DJ Vadim's sexy summery hip-hop and reggae podcast. Get stuck in and pour yourself some Pimms.

Enjoy

DT xx
