A few weeks ago we were lucky enough to see Tom Flynn at Dirtybird's London BBQ and, despite the fact he was on an hour into a 15 hour rave playing in a large warehouse to a handful of (young looking) people, his music caught our ears. It's a rare talent to draw the attention of sober people in the process of pacing themselves for the long haul. And taking into consideration the context of a party full of many amazing moments- the heat causing Claude Von Stroke to ditch his jeans and walk about in his pants, [...]

Hi Claude, how are you? Great thank you, just getting ready for Miami. Congratulations on reaching 10 [...]
