Weekly Transmission 69!

Hype Hype Hype!

We're on some exclusive isht this week with a new video interview with messers Sasha & Digweed ahead of their show-stealing South West Four set on the August Bank Holiday, and got the story from Peace Division about why they're splitting up.

This week's podcast comes from Phonat, a superb Italian producer who we've been rating for years - blending phat hip-hop with chunky party house and his own inimitable brand of euphoric electro house bizness. A good house party mix basically!

Make sure you check out the competitions section too - we've got loads of festival tickets to give away, including Wireless, Glade and Global Gathering!
