NEW MIXMAG – DAFT PUNK SPECIAL – OUT NOW

This month, an extremely special December issue of Mixmag celebrates the return of dance music’s most iconic producers – Daft Punk. As the rave robots return with their first new record in years – the hotly anticipated ‘Tron: Legacy Soundtrack’ – we chart their full story, witnessing how the reclusive French duo changed the dance music game forever…

December’s cover CD comes courtesy of one of the undisputed superstars of dance music, technological DJ wizard James Zabiela, who, in keeping with this month’s sci-fi cover, takes you on a journey to the future soundtracked by Modeselektor, DJ Marky, Ramadanman, Caribou, Groove Armada, Phonique, SBTRKT and Funk D’Void…

PLUS As that mix gets you in the mood for the party season… we’ve got a guide to 2010’s Top 40 must-attend NYE parties, plus 14 pages of the most comprehensive club listings you’ll find anywhere, and for those planning on running a NYE event of their own, we’ve grilled the country’s leading promoters for their advice on playing the promotion game.

Elsewhere, DJ legend Fergie talks Big Brother, bankruptcy and bouncing back, we get the inside story on one clubber’s foreign festival nightmare, as he found himself sectioned in Serbia, and our Xmas gift guide has got your pressie list sorted.

As always, we’ve got our feet on the dancefloors of the UK’s leading parties, with the biggest clubs and live acts reviewed from around the country. We’ve got pages of fashion, technology, new artists and a months worth of club listings for both here and around the world.

With the latest albums from the likes of Modeselektor, Sei A, Fergie, Radio Slave, Magda, Spiritcatcher and more going under the microscope, plus reviews of all the cutting-edge tunes that are destroying clubland RIGHT NOW, why read anything else?
