The Glastonbury Essential mix showcases the best in new Club Bangers [Annie Mac, Toddla T] Drum-n-bass [Chase & Status] and Dubstep [Skream, Chase & Status] all packaged together into a 4 hour live broadcast. A lil background first – Glastonbury in the UK is like Coachella in the US, but way bigger. 2010 was its 40th anniversary and it featured 500+ artists on 45 stages (!!). All the tickets for 2011 already sold-out and they dont even release the lineup till spring.
The Glastonbury Essential Mix was hosted by Annie Mac in the ‘Shangrai-La’ dance grotto and was live broadcast to the world on BBC Radio 1 June 26, 2010 from 1am to 5 in the morning. In addition to a 1-hour set from Annie Mac – Chase & Status, Skream (sub’d in for Rusko), and Toddla T each had their turn at the decks. There is ‘more than alot’ of stuff to cover so continue reading to get the full scoop.

This summer’s Big Boi anthem – Shutterbug – was a sing-along hit from day one. CYV brought it to you first – but you already knew that. The orignal instrumental was produced by the “moneymaker” Scott Storch(er) and the vocal bassline – baba-baba-baba-BOOM – is so fresh itll make your speakers bling!
Shutterbug was ripe for a club remix and Jack Beats deliv’d the goods. A proper remix in every aspect taking just the right amount of vocals and melodies from the orignal but twisting it into a electro zinger with that “baba-BOOM” bassline. Get on it @ 320 now, with an official beatport release to follow suit in the next few weeks.
