Data Science Makes an Impact on Wall Street

This Halloween, as the stars align and the universe's many moons cross paths, we know we're certain of one thing: we're in the mood to get freaky. No, we've not gone all Rick James on you - although we'd admit that'd make an awesome costume - we're talking about getting our groove on as all you guys and ghouls come out to play and so wanted an extra special podcast to soundtrack this spookiest of weeks. Step forward: Mumbai Science who having just released their new single 'Black Hole' - complete with a remix from none other than Detroit techno legend, Robert Hood under his Floorplan alias - step up to the plate to deliver a mix of serious distinction. 

Exploring a wide range of the best cuts house and techno have to offer, the mix sees the Belgian duo journey through a variety of upbeat numbers numbers that have had us cutting some serious shapes as we dance around the office. We can't imagine a better way to start the week - well we can but it's illegal in 56 countries and you'd need a pelican, a couple of supermodels and a fighter jet.  So in the absence of these readily available items we'll settle for this weighty set of selections. All aboard the Mumbai Express!
