For Episode 27 we have brought in Jack Wickham. Jack’s style stems across House, Deep House and Deep Techno, consistently being influenced and imbued by other DJs, sounds and inspiration around him to create his own unique image. Carrying a mixture of deep musical passion, a collection of delicious music and an open minded perspective, Jack established himself within the music industry with releases on Catwash Records, One Records, Frole, Art of Dark and many more. Summer 2013 will see Jack travel to Ibiza for a residency at Sankeys and gigs across Europe with a brief visit to the east coast of America.

for episode 26 we have brought in Chris Simmond's!!, Cross Section Records head honcho and House legend !!. in the late 80's Chris would be found at the decks of Time Radio in London spinning Soul, Jazz, Funk and Rare Grooves & selling his productions out the boot of his car 'Wax factory Productions'. This was one of the first UK independent dance labels back in 1990 which gave him the opportunity to meet & engineer for the likes of Carl Cox, Colin Dale, Rocky (xpress 2), Rugged Vinyl and a lot more of the dj/producers of the 90s.

For episode 25 we have brought in Amsterdam duo 'Beesmunt Soundsystem'. AKA David van der Leeuw & Luigi Vittorio Jansen. David & Luigi's debut EP Circulation on SoWeSo, has been seen in many big dog DJ's record bad, and a favourite of ourselves. At the mere age of 18, both gentlemen had already earned their own residency at the famous Paradiso venue. As the rep grew bigger, so did the crowds, the parties and the festivals (Lowlands, 5 Days Off, Valtifest, Open Air), even taking them across the border: Paris, Cannes, Berlin, Antwerp, Istanbul, Lausanne, Bern, just a selection of places they have blessed with their original sounds. This progress in the realms of dance music also inspired the fellows to advance and develop their own productions and remixes.

Volume 24 of the Sample Podcast comes from good friend and Lower East regular Rebel.
