8 Kerri Chandler ‘Bar A Thym’

Played by Marshall Jefferson in The Great Gallery: Charged with bringing down the curtain on the main room after Tuskegee had finished their four-hour stint, Jefferson brought the classics as he laid down some deep Chicago vibes. The Chi-town legend was always going to play his own 'Move Your Body (Future House)', but it was when the mix oozed a heap more groove during cuts like 'Bar A Thym' that you realised just why the house legend has been relied upon to deliver for so many years.

7 Bangkok Impact ‘Mission on Mars’

Played by Craig Richards in the Car Park: After DJ Harvey received what had to be the biggest crowd reaction of the day, Craig Richards had some big boots to fill as he stepped up to close the Car Park. But who better to take the final reigns of the Acid Future than the man who has done so much to shape the face of London's most iconic club for over 15 years?

Ever the gent, DJ Harvey dropped the pace from his otherwise unrelenting set, with the Fabric resident transitioning in to the slightly eerie sounding Nadastrom dub of 'Wanna Be Dancin' by The Glass. The start of Richards' mix was uncompromising – whilst the lights were killed for the last two hours – as Troxler, fresh from a stint alongside DJ Harvey, donned his headphones and signalled his final surprise B2B of the night. We knew the duo meant business when they set the pace with a pitched up 'Mission On Mars'.
