Radio 1's Essential Mix throughout January focusses on the Future Stars of 2013, with Pete Tong, Annie Mac, Heidi and Friction each shining a spotlight on the artists they think are going to break through big time this year.

Pete's choice are two stars of the red hot French Express label - American DJ and producer Perseus and Sweden's Jonas Rathsman. Perseus recently remixed Jessie Ware's Night Light, whilst Rathsman is behind the funky Tobago EP. The label also released Chris Malinchak's recent Essential New Tune, So Good To Me'.

Co-mixed by Perseus and Jonas, this is two hours of euphoric and soulful music rooted in a contemporary house. Talking about their selections, Perseus explains Club tracks rotate by the month and this mix had to go beyond that. This mix is an essential snapshot of what French Express stands for, an amalgamation of tunes selected by the combined tastes of the label, for the listener, without getting too historical, tributary, or knee deep in personal inspiration-lending music of our pasts'.

This show is part 1 of a 4 part series and available to listen to again via the iPlayer until Friday 1st February.

It's the Future Stars of 2013, with Pete Tong's choice - Perseus and Jonas Rathsman.

Duke Dumont

Throughout January, Pete Tong, Annie Mac, Heidi and Friction are shining the spotlight on four artists they think are going to break through big time in 2013.

Annie's choice is a DJ/Producer who is no newcomer, but who has re-emerged after a brief hiatus, during which time he holed up in his country studio producing some future house classics like 'The Giver' and 'Need U (100%)'.

For me, being from the UK, the Essential Mix is an institution, so I am honoured to receive the call from Annie & Pete. My aim was to give listeners an insight into the music that motivates me to record and also to showcase my own material, including some exclusive works. The overwhelmingphilosophy behind the mix wasto represent what I play on a regular basis on my weekly travels around the world. The mix was recorded in a single take on a standard CDJ set-up, with the majority of tracks being edited to help keep a consistent energy throughout the mix. I hope you enjoy my selection and all the best to all upcoming producers & DJ's engaging in their passion for music x'. Duke Dumont, January 2013.

This show is part 2 of a 4 part series and available to listen to again via the iPlayer until Friday 1st February, alongside Pete Tong's Future Stars Essential Mix from Perseus & Jonas Rathsman.

Throughout January Pete Tong, Annie Mac, Heidi and Friction are shining the spotlight on four artists who they think are going to break through big time in 2013.

Heidi's choice is a DJ/Producer from London who has emerged as one of the hottest talents in house and techno in the last couple of years. He released his first records through Scuba's Hotflush label in 2010 and he's since linked up with labels like Hypercolour, Man Make Music and Aus - which put out probably his biggest track to date 'Child'.

This mix really represents where I'm at as a producer and a DJ at the moment. There's a few completely unheard tracks by myself in the mix, as well as unreleased bits from Scuba, Bicep, Midland and several others. There are also some of my most treasured records by people like Carl Craig, Shed and Ame in there. It covers a lot of ground stylistically and for me on a personal level. Big thanks to Heidi and to Radio 1 for inviting me to do this mix. Its a real honour to contribute to a series that so many of my heroes have been a part of'. George Fitzgerald, January 2013.

This show is part 3 of a 4 part series and available to listen to again via the iPlayer until Friday 1st February, alongside Pete Tong's Future Stars Essential Mix from Perseus & Jonas Rathsman and Annie Mac's choice, Duke Dumont!

It's the third Essential Mix Future Star of 2013 - Heidi's choice, George Fitzgerald!

Metrik

Hi, I'm Metrik and I'm an electronic music producer from London, UK. One of my main aims with this mix was to keep the selection as fresh as possible by sourcing new music from my favourite producers and labels in drum & bass and beyond.

The mix includes a lot of my own tunes and remixes as well as some unreleased, previously unheard material, including my collaboration with ShockOne called 'Lazerbeam' and 'Flightwave VIP'. There are also some unreleased projects which I've been working on recently in the studio and some brand new and exclusive tracks from High Contrast, Ed Rush, Dirtyphonics, ShockOne, Killsonik, Skrillex, Cyantific, Dimension, Brookes Brothers, Flux Pavillion, Opiuo, DC Breaks, Danny Byrd and Roni Size.

I've included some things I wouldn't normally play in a one hour DJ set and have tried to reflect a wide spectrum, covering dance floor, downtempo and some deeper sounds. Hopefully the mix serves as a snapshot of some of the best new music around and what's to come over 2013'.

This show is the final part of a 4 part series and available to listen to again via the iPlayer until Friday 1st February, alongside Pete Tong's Future Stars Essential Mix from Perseus & Jonas Rathsman, Annie Mac's choice, Duke Dumont and Heidi's choice George Fitzgerald!

It's the Essential Mix Future Stars of 2013 with Friction's choice, Metrik!
