5 Palms Trax

Jay Donaldson has somewhat exploded onto the scene. After a few stellar releases via London label Lobster Theremin, he made the move to Dekmantel and the Dutch imprint has become a home for his super-fun brand of house.

If his productions are what got him noticed, then his DJ sets are what have kept him in the spotlight. Whether it's house or techno, disco or soul, Palms Trax blends it with ease and he's a joy to watch. A highlight of last year's Dekmantel, he played two hours of sheer brilliance and even gave Four Tet a run for his money in terms of spectacle. Although the Silver Hayes line-up is booming, Palms Trax needs to be on your radar. Don't sleep.

6 Amy Becker

Amy Becker is charging around the London underground at the moment.

She champions the frenetic club music coming out of the city (and indeed, the UK), deploying tracks by the likes of Murlo, Rushmore and Gage. And she's also started her own party, Acrylic, to keep pushing the cause, inviting risers like Kamixlo and AJ Tracey to hot up a Dalston basement.

She also hosts a ferocious show on Radar Radio, bringing on guests like Ikonika and Nightwave to help her keep the airwaves sizzling with energy. Her Glasto set will definitely be one for the dancing crew (like, proper dancing, not just skulking around).
