Happyhead - Digital Love Thing (Underground MK Mix)
It was hard to pick with MK remix to include as there are so many bangers from back in the day. But this one is maybe less know and I will try and sneak it into some sets every now and then with the right crowds.
Danny Snowden - You Give Me (Origins Rcrds)
Danny has been bubbling on the scene for a few years now and feel like 2025 things are really coming together for him. We dropped this on Origins at the start of the year with another huge track on the flip side.

Stranger Things Millie Bobby Brown welcomes first child with husband Jake
Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown and her husband Jake Bongiovi have announced that they became parents over the summer. The 21-year-old British actress wed the son of singer-songwriter Jon Bon Jovi in 2024, after getting engaged in 2023. Now, the couple have begun the next chapter in their life as they became first-time parents. Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown and her husband Jake Bongiovi have announced that they have become parents over the summer. Pic:The stars made the announcement on Thursday evening, issuing a brief statement via social media. The sweet statement read: 'This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption. We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy. 'And then there were 3. Love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi.' The arrival of their first child comes just over a year after the pair tied the knot in a secret ceremony in the United States of America. The nuptials was said to be low-key and romantic, with singer Jon Bon Jovi later confirming that the wedding had taken place. Speaking on BBC's The One, he confirmed: 'It was a very small family wedding, and the bride looked gorgeous, and Jake is happy as can be. It's true.' Jake Bongiovi, Millie Bobby Brown, Dorothea Hurley and Jon Bon Jovi. Pic: Arturo Holmes/WireImage The beautiful news comes as the countdown gets underway for the fifth and final season of supernatural drama, Stranger Things, where Millie will reprise her role as Eleven. The final season of the Netflix show will be split into three parts, with the first dropping in November. SPOILER WARNING FOR PREVIOUS SEASONS BELOW. In the trailer, the primary protagonists are in various locations, with the common denominator being the town's fictional radio station WSQK; with the increase in decibels potentially being a nod to how to bring people out of the upside down. The teaser also gives a brutal reminder of Eddie Munson's death in the season four finale, with his friends visiting his now defaced grave, with 'burn in hell' being written in 'red viscous fluid.' Things aren't looking good for Max either, as she remains in a coma from season four after an encounter with Vecna, with Lucas remaining at her hospital bed.

I got to see the real Emma Raducanu – she's living her career in reverse and people don't realise how much she does
TOTALLY RAD I got to see the real Emma Raducanu – she's living her career in reverse and people don't realise how much she does EMMA RADUCANU'S former coach insists she is pulling out all the stops to dominate tennis after 'living her career in reverse.' Raducanu shot to fame when she won the US Open aged just 18. 2 Emma Raducanu has been 'living her career in reverse' Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 2 Former coach Mark Petchey insists the Brit is more determined for success than ever Credit: PA Advertisement It saw her become the first qualifier in the Open era to win a singles major title. And Raducanu's win earned her a host of lucrative endorsements while also ensuring her place as a household name. But the British No1 has since struggled to live up to her past billing. The 22-year-old has suffered several debilitating injuries.

He told OLBG: 'Coaching Emma was awesome. From my perspective, I hope people can really understand how much she loves tennis. Emma Raducanu 'asks for crying child to be EJECTED from stadium' in tense exchange with umpire and crowd agree 'She's totally invested in it. She watches it all the time. She practices as hard as anyone I know and has spent more time on the court, or as much time on the court, as everybody else. And obviously she's living a very different life. 'She's living a lot of her career in reverse and that's not been easy. Having set the bar so high so early on in your career every week you are measured not just by other people's expectations but also your own expectations.

'But on the other hand, it's difficult, because at times it can feel like you're not hitting the standard you want to because that's where your bar is at. "From that perspective, her work ethic and her desire to be able to do what she did back in 2021 is as great as I remember it in 2020 when I first had a chance to work with her.'
