Achja, der BBC Essential Mix. Seit nunmehr fast 20 Jahren bittet Radio-Legende Pete Tong jede Woche auf BBC Radio 1 für genau zwei Stunden zum Tanz. Einen Essential Mix beisteuern zu müssen, das ist für viele britische Produzenten und DJs so etwas wie der Ritterschlag. Das jetzt auch Hyperdub-Labelchef Kode9 einen machen durfte, spricht da eigentlich für sich. Und die Tracklist ohnehin. Da kann man auch die Voice-Overs ausnahmsweise mal in Kauf nehmen.
