On Fast Trax this week, Pete started off with the video for ‘Wait 4 U’ from Lenny Fontana and Ridney featuring Larisa.

Pete also shares the newest single, ‘Blow Your Head’ from Diplo, due out on October 24th.

There are three Bedroom Bedlam cuts from Octav, Dub Mayer, and this week’s No.1 track by Samy Chelly and DJ Danjer. Bedroom Bedlam features 3 unsigned tracks selected by Pete each week from submissions sent to his MySpace page. You can listen to the No. 1 Bedroom Bedlam track for free for one week’s time on the Fast Trax website, and also vote for next week’s top Bedroom Bedlam track. To check out other Bedroom Bedlamers, check out the Bedroom Bedlam label, also currently available exclusively on Beatport.

The Remix for this week is Hervé’s ‘Ain’t No Sunshine’ remix of Kidda’s ‘Under The Sun’ to be released on October 27th.

Pete also highlights the track ‘Hardcore Girls’ from The Count & Sinden featuring Rye Rye.

For the Big Interview this week, Pete talks to Rimer London, Serge Faberge, and Piet Para of a cheeky new group from Amsterdam, called Le Le, who discuss their ‘sour outlook’ on life and the separate skills they bring to the table, which include painting and singing, and collectively indulging in the joys of bar life. They have been getting their hands dirty with some recent projects which include their forthcoming album, ‘Flage’ due to be released internationally in November on Magnetron Music. They discuss what they see as a trend of ‘cultural and intellectual poverty’ in Amsterdam, and how their spiritual home of Champagne, France, feeds them in essential ways. They describe their style as a “crazy mix” of danceable house, new wave and pop, peppered with Italo disco.  They also paint a lively and extensive verbal portrait of the inspiration for the album that you’ll just have to check out for yourself. They’ll also be performing in London on the 24th of this month at their first ever UK gig, for free. Check out their MySpace for full details.

During the interview we heard ‘Flash’ and ‘Human Garbage’ from their new album.

Also, and exclusive to the mobile phone version of the show is the Matt Helders (Arctic Monkeys) cover of ‘Dreamer’ forthcoming on his ‘Late Night Tales’ compilation.
