Hostage Essential Mix for Annie Mac + free new tune ‘Skin Out’

Big news about the next couple of months at KOTJ: I’ll be interviewing Starkey, DJ Donna Summer and Kid606; but sooner than that, the first volume of the Kick Out The Jam mix series will be hitting you square in the knackers in around a month’s time with a contribution from none other than Donna Summer himself, Jason Forrest.

In the mean time, Hostage has recorded a session for Annie Mac’s Essential Mix live at Cabaret Voltaire, Edinburgh. This is what the good chaps at Nightshifters had to say about things:

“Wow, 2010 looks to be an IN-SANE year for us here @ Nightshfters! There’s a lot of awesome stuff happening for us (don’t worry- we’ll let you know when the time is right) but for now- what’s that?- Hostage scores a live Essential Mix in Edinburgh with Annie Mac just last week! The crowd goes wild!! We ripped it from the BBC so you could have more than 7 days to check it out! haha!” – Jason Forrest

Right click + save as below to get his Essential mix and a brand-spanking new tune, ‘Skin Out’. The tracklisting is in the folder with the rather snazzy artwork.
