Monthly residency on Love Will Save The Day FM. Each month we get to know something from the electronic music world with interview clips and always a very dancey mix to get you in the mood for Saturday night.

Get2kno... monthly radio show

Buzzing to join the Love Will Save The Day FM family with my new monthly show ‘Get2kno…’ 🥹.

Each month I’ll be getting to know something or someone from the dance music world, but the first one is getting to know…me 🤓.

The mix stitches together some of my standout moments from the dancefloor over the years, memories from growing up in Croydon, an ode to bella Italia (home for three years during the pandemic 💕) plus tracks I’ve had on repeat at the minute.

Expect breaks, house, synth pop, 90s/00s electronica, dub and even a mashup from yours truly 🙃.

Tracks by Giulia Tess, Smokin Jo, Tom VR, Matisa, Mala, Octo Octa and more...

Got the Glastonbury blues? Want to relive some of the magic for an hour? Then listen back to my latest Love Will Save The Day Get2kno… Glasto special radio show ✨✨✨! Expect….

🗽An ode to the best club in the world, the NYC Downlow, including predicting one of the most beautiful moments I’ve ever had on the dance floor when Kings of Tomorrow aka Sandy Riviera played a stripped back version of Finally as the penultimate track in the DL on Saturday night (legit tears)

🪩 A mix of dancey tracks by and inspired by some of the long list of amazing DJs at the festival 

📸 A chat with subculture photographer and Glasto local Mattko about when raving hit the field back in 1989, when he first discovered Block9 and why the early hours of Monday morning is his favourite time at the festival 

🔥 PLUS we hear from the amazing JESSI who slayed her Glasto debut at the weekend, UK bass royalty Hagan and an EXCLUSIVE banger from UK garage legend Jeremy Sylvester

To honour the lads making the Euros football final this month's Get2kno is a homegrown talent special - an hour of dancefloor heaters by producers from the UK and Ireland and all at 130-150bpm 😮‍💨😮‍💨🧨🧨🇬🇧🇮🇪. 

In usual Get2kno style there’s fun facts about the producers along the way 🤓. It's a genre rollercoaster with house, bass, electro pop, garage, breaks and beyond. Includes recent ones by Melle Brown, Holly Lester, Otik, Charli XCX and Facta plus a mashup by yours truly and more. 

I worked up a proper sweat having a dance recording this one - hope you do too!

Get2kno... Behind the track w/ Emilia G on LWSTD.FM 24/8/2024

This month's Get2kno is a tribute to everyone's favourite decade - the 90s! I had the absolute pleasure of chatting to two amazing  women who started off their DJ careers in the mid 90s - AnnaB and Lady T - all about what it was like back in the day. 

The interview clips are interwoven with a dancey (as always) mix of entirely 90s bangers - a lotta house, a bitta UKG, speed garage and trance. We chat what it was like to be a woman on the scene back in the day, pirate radio, vinyl and advice for female DJs of today. 

I was grinning from ear to ear hearing their stories and I can't wait for y'all to get to know them too. Get locked :).

Tunes by Namby Pamby, 95 North, De Zenk, Davina, DJ Luck and MC Neat, Wookie, Full Intention and more

Get2kno... Female DJs in the 90s w/ Emilia G on LWSTD.FM 28/9/24

This month's Get2kno is an ode to legendary record shop DnR Vinyl - the only garage specialist store still standing, which also happens to be in the small neighbourhood of Croydon where I grew up. Pretty much every DJ in the game has stepped through its doors since it opened back in the early 2000s to have a dig through the thousands of second hand oldskool gems and exclusive new releases collected by owners Dan n Rob since they were teenagers. 

I went down to the shop to chat to Dan about the origins of his music obsession and the importance of keeping small shops like his alive. We go back to his days as a 14 year old getting his mum to buy the latest vinyls from the prestigious Big Apple record store in Croydon 🍎, to his uni days where he spent every penny of his student loan on vinyl 💰, to the present day where small labels such as Elijah's 'Butterz' are a crucial support 🫂.

DnR is underground incarnate - fully DIY, no frills, no viral videos, just decades of unadulterated love and dedication to the music. The garage scene has never gone away despite its revival in recent years and the shop has helped preserve it from where it all began.

Dan doesn’t do interviews often so it was a real privilege to get to hear and share his stories. Anyone who’s listened to the show will able to tell that he’s an incredibly humble guy despite being deeply respected by everyone in the scene and one of the biggest oracles of music knowledge in the business. UKG legends Jeremy Sylvester, Lady Passion , Perception + Vibesey shared their personal stories: Dan goes above and beyond, helping start labels and pressing new releases as well as putting his all into the shop and website.

The interview clips are interwoven with a mix of entirely UKG - mostly oldskool - by me 🤓, including some tracks recommended by Dan himself 🔥. It’s kinda like podcast meets a mix 🤝.  Tracks by Tuff Jam, Damian C, Mike Millrain, Groove Chronicles, El-B, Eliza Rose, K-Lone and more.

Get2kno went live & direct for the very first time on Saturday and omg it was so fun 📡🎙️! We went straight in with club vibes for this one - head down in the club at 2am was the vision - with some proggy gorgeousness, house, breaks, jersey club vibes and a couple R n B edits to end with some nostalgia. Shoutout to the amazing chatroom crew and big thanks to my dear friend and top selector Josh CK for joining me on the show for a b2b! Show includes tracks by two of my favourite producers of the past year ones to watch Madelic & Will Silver 🚀🧨 and a confession that I may have broke dry January for some Dutch courage wine to calm the inaugural live nerves 🙃😅. 

Other tracks include brand spankin new ones by Kiara Scuro and The Trip, plus DJ Bogdan, DJ Swisha, Samuel L. Session and more.

April's Get2kno is dedicated to FLINTA promoters and producers! Earlier this month I launched a club night with one of my best mates, and we really came to appreciate how much work goes into making nights happen - so I wanted to spotlight some of the promoters who put diversity into the heart of what they do. There are still way too many all-male line-ups out there! And celebrating and supporting FLINTA talent and people is more important now than ever. For the show we hear from 9 wonderful promoters about their events and why representation is so important in this space. The voice notes are interwoven with a mix of entirely FLINTA producers, many of whom are promoters themselves. Expect proggy goodness, dark hypnotic house, gorgeous breaks and an end track by a true icon.

Thanks to @fadedsociety, @selextorhood, @djmaddogtrue, @hellocoren, @user-203618761, @echojulietdj, @chessdj, @shamaya_twain and @user-749131864 for their beautiful contributions.

Tracks by Octo Octa, Ladymonix, Matisa, Eris Drew, A for Alpha, NIKS, Rose Bonica, FAFF, Kitsch, Elkka, Scarlett O'Malley, Teetee and more.

Get2kno live 2.0 b2b with Josh CK is up for your listening pleasure…! The theme for this month is ‘I wish I was at Glasto’, the fomo hit HARD this year but we were happy to transport the listeners to the field for an hour of club-ready tunes that were farm-worthy (see what I did there?). 

Starting off at 134bpm it’s a journey of acid, trance, 90s sleaze, breaks, jersey club ending with some grab-your-friend-for-a-cuddle dubs of classics. It wasn’t a planned show and I was especially excited to get to play D Tyrone’s dreamy Mala edit that I’ve been obsessed with for ages but haven’t had a chance to play! Also features brand spankin new goodness from the incredible Amaliah and Om Unit.

We had some technical issues at the start so the mic intro is a tad late and a bit messy, forgive us and blame the gremlins! Also some silly chat about how to pronounce Pangaea and whether the Horny Mix featured was horny enough for our liking.

Other tracks in the mix by Jay Gardian, Kinky Plants, James Pepper, Hodge & Carolyn Harding, Sam Alfred, Hi-Lux and more.

PS. pic is a San Remo throwback to Glasto 2023, got everything crossed for 2027... xoxo

I worked up a proper sweat dancing while recording this month's Get2kno! It's a spontaneous high energy mix of tracks I've been feeling at the minute, dreamy house, big bass lines, quite a lot of 00s tech house tunes, a techno surprise, 90s chicago house and some sauciness from the latest @maricasmaricas compilation (which I can't get enough of).

Featuring tracks by @tunesoflyss @olivetonic @spriitzz @bellasarris and more!

Enjoy xoxo
