Session 6 Pete Tong entry, On The Rise Open Decks, and a TCR Classic.

Yes, yes, Blaze here. The energy in the lab has been focused this week as we gear up for a massive end to February.

First off, a huge thank you to everyone who has supported my entry into the Pete Tong DJ Academy Future Talent Awards. My latest Session 6 mix is the official entry video. I don’t normally ask for things, and I don’t expect anything from this as most people don't like Breaks or don't get us—but hopefully, doing this might highlight our beloved genre on a global stage. If you have a second, please watch the video and drop a comment—it genuinely helps push the sound forward.

The Friday Night Digger session just wrapped, and it was a proper one. The crew have spoken and we’ve got a stone-cold TCR classic for the throwback slot. You can find the full selection from the show right here: 👉 [Friday Night Digger Week 7 Chart] (https://www.beatport.com/chart/friday-night-digger-week-7/881410)

Passing thought of the week: We do what we do because we love it. Who cares if no one else gets it? That's exactly why it's underground.
