BBC Radio One: The Best Out There



















Two years ago I was introduced to BBC Radio One through their legendary Essential Mix show hosted by Pete Tong and I havent looked back since. What started as two flawless hours of mixing by MSTKRRFT has now become my go to radio station for music and I think this is something everyone should have. A blend of pop, hip hip, and electronic music, BBC Radio One has great music, no commercials, and incredibly interactive disc jockeys. There are multiple ways to get it.... and here are the two I use:

Car:
Sirius XM
Link: Sirius XM: BBC RadioOne
Delay: The pay service broadcasts Radio One on an 8hr delay
Cost: $8/month


iPhone:
Fstream Application
Delay: Broadcasts it live as if you were in London.
Cost: FREE

Download App and create a new station. Under URL enter: www.bbc.co/uk/radio/listen/live/r1.asx

Connect.

EDC. Getting Ready
























EDC is going to be beyond huge this year. Lets party

Here are mixes from some of EDC's top talent this year. There's more content for Friday because its the better day.

Friday: (In order of who I care to see)


Swedish House Mafia
The Swedish megagroup of Axwel, Steve Angello, and Sebastian Ingrosso had a HUGE 2009 and are finally coming to LA. Here is their Essential Mix recorded LIVE @ the Warehouse Project 12/28/08




Moby (DJ SET)

Moby killed it in 08 and will no doubt be bringing it again this year. The mans a legend that cannot be missed.






Basement Jaxx (DJ SET)
Saw the guys at Halloween and they were awesome. Pure dance your ass off beats with a mix of acid house, jaxx classics, dubstep, and the occasional Queen track. This mixtape is all I could really find of theirs and although it has its moments, it doesnt really capture the talent of the British duo.




Deadmau5
He has a cool new cube. Here is his Essential Mix from 08 recorded live @ the Warehouse Project in Manchester






Jack Beats
The biggest name in wobble, Jack Beats have had a remarkable rise to fame with their killer remixes and epic live mixes. Here is their Essential Mix from earlier this year.





Saturday:



SASHA
Its been 11 years since Sasha was last honored as the world #1 DJ but the man from Wales still remains one of the biggest names in electronic music. Don't miss him






MSTRKRFT:
This right here is the first Essential Mix I ever downloaded. The Canadian duo know how to bring it and will be a great clash against the horrible mainstage trash that is Saturday night.







Wolfgang Gartner:
The surprise act of Coachella this year, the American is set to destroy @ EDC on Saurday.Here is a recording taken from his set at Coachella
