Oh my. It's been a summer of madness this year with weekend after weekend of top quality shows, cracking crowds & super sunshine. I'm sure you all know I'm something of an uber-productive maniac when it comes to creative output, but at the moment I've been struggling to catch my own breath, and not only have we just surpassed the 10,000 followers on Facebook, but we also topped 250,000 listens on Soundcloud, whilst MySpace visits are closing in on 2 million. Bonkers, weird & lovely all at the same time - can't thank you all enough for your support really!
Anyway I'm going to keep this (mercifully) brief as I just wanted to give you a quick recap on a few new bits ...

Literally just dropped this today through the widget system we use to celebrate hitting the 10k mark on Facebook. You do have to enter your email to get it but your details are only ever used for the occasional mailers from me so rest easy.
Please use the SHARE button on the widget to spread it via Facebook & Twitter - really helps me out!!
This has been a mainstay in my sets these past few months, and the chances are if you've been to any shows, this will have rocked your world. It was release today on Beatport as an exclusive, and given the past few mixes I've done have hit the #1 slot on there I would LOVE your support on this one :)

So I've been working quite hard on trying to up my video skills & was pretty pleased with how the two Wickerman movies turned out. For those that don't know, my U&A label took over one half of Bass Camp at this excellent Scottish Festival this summer and both nights we smashed the tent to bits, having grafted long & hard to put all the visuals & decor in place for the event (Tom Reed & VJ Air please take a bow).

The following week it was onto the Kendal Calling Festival in the Lake District where I was on after Yoda & had a MASSIVE crowd to play with.

Just a few days later I was out in Canada to play the unbelievable Shambhala Festival where I got a great slot on the massive Pagoda Stage on the Saturday night. View from the booth was like this ...

Then yesterday I had the privilege of playing the wicked family affair that is Montreal's unique Picnik Electronique which happens every Sunday during the afternoon and features a killer line-up of internation & local talent every week. Another cracking crowd!

Last but not least and going back a few weeks, was the Elite Force Boat Party on the Thames, which was a complete success, blessed as we were by a beautiful evening and a full boat. I imagine this might well become an annual event already, and as a fundraiser for Opulent Temple at Burning Man I was thrilled to be able to donate $750 from the proceeds.

Penultimate thing (jeez - this was meant to be short!!) is some pod-fodder for you. Last year Meat Katie & I did a BIG back2back session at Opulent Temple at the peak of the Saturday night after the burn. There was an amazing energy that night from the crowd (as many of you will have seen from the youtube clips), but for the first time the set has been made available as a download for you, so please grab it from here as we gear up to Burning Man 2010 :)
