Erol Alkan & A Trak recorded this Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1, first broadcast on 15 November 2008 — their only appearance in the Waveform archive. It lands in the mid-2000s, as electro and minimal reshaped dancefloors, and the set sits in Tech House and Electro territory.
A full tracklist for this broadcast has not been documented — the recording runs as one continuous set. It aired in a year that also brought Essential Mixes from Pete Tong Annie Mac Eddie Halliwell & Pendulum Nye, Herve & Sinden, Gareth Emery.
