Making his name on Hot Waves back in 2010, Alexis Raphael has refused to be pinned down, dropping house, techno and everything in between onto labels such as Lower East, Hot Creations and Heidi's Jackathon Jams in recent years. Scoring a nomination for Breakthrough DJ at our Best Of British Awards last year, he's a dab hand on the decks too, as likely to be found spinning at the world's biggest rooms as he is the hidden basements of the globe's most cultured cities. With recent gigs in Mexico, Italy and Equador making up his schedule, as well as a set at the Gist tent at Brownstock Festival on Sunday 1st September, we asked him to tell it like it is...

F**k Gary Barlow. If anyone in Britain deserves an OBE, it's Lars Sandberg, the great Scot who just keeps on giving. Silver-haired member of the British house and techno old guard, he's improved with age like the fine champagne of his Francois Dubois moniker, more so through his work as Funk D'Void on Slam's Soma Records and more recently Outpost Recordings.

It's been a helluva year for No Artificial Colours. Following a busy summer of UK gigs, September saw them go next level with a brief US tour, a week in the Caribbean and a stopover in Greece. Doesn't get more jet-set than that...
