But thanksfully to jog my memeory on what to play I've been listening to the classic FSUK compilations from the likes of Bentley Rhythm Ace, Freestylers, Derek Dahlarge and of course Cut La Roc and there all bloody briliant still, well worth tracking down if you havent heard them before.

SWU Mega Rave | Weatherall Special | Download
The Major... The Chairman... Lord Sabre... Audrey Witherspoon.
Shifting identities almost as easily as he shifts sounds, Andrew Weatherall has slipped through the shadows of the music world over the past two decades like a masked marauder, leaving his mark on all he passes by.
As a remixer he has enhanced – or just as often twisted beyond recognition – a motley crew of musical freaks, kooks and wronguns too numerous to mention.
Any attempt to provide a truly representative sample of his remixing work would quickly sprawl beyond recognition, but here is a very personal choice of some of his key moments, highlighting particular themes that have run throughout his careering career.
Recorded by Richie Rundle in a conservatory in leafy surburbia and broadcast on SWU Radio by Ben and Lex

02. Love Corporation 'Give Me Some Love (Andrew Weatherall mix)'

Blimey!!!
What a busy week at Ape Towers and Ben & Lex HQ... After last Fridays amazing STANDOUT gig, we carried on with some midweek rave action in the form of 2 killer gigs with the mighty Krafty Kuts who, in the down time in between them, joined Lex in the studio for the making of some 'monster cheeky beatz' as the man like Krafty would say... watch this space for its release some time in the near future.
Not content with just the one collaboration for the week we were joined on Friday for a marathon late night studio session by the heavyweight sounds of the Afghan Headspin and thrashed out a blinding bit of bad boy bass music!!!!
Keep an eye on the Beatz and Bobz Show on NSB Radio for exclusive plays of these collabs in the near future.
