Title: “I absolutely Love Gatecrasher Birmingham and I’m happy to be invited over to smash the hell out of the night” GB catch up with Laidback Luke ahead of his set this Saturday

Then content to go in, can you also add some pictures of when he was here last time and his press shots also

GB -    2010s been a really busy year for you, tell us what you’ve been up to this summer....

LBL - Currently keeping up with the summer tour. Yes, it's hectic but I'm really enjoying this point in my career now. Apart from only being home for 5 days of the month in July and August, I'm trying to make as much music as I can in airplanes and airports ha ha.

GB - Super You&Me has really taken off this year, will you be bringing any of those elements to Gatecrasher?

LBL - I would love to do a Super You&Me to Gatecrasher! Now that would be a lot of fun. But to answer your question: no, I won't. If it's not a Super You&Me event, I won't bring any elements (apart from me playing) to it.

GB - And who’s your favourite super hero?

LBL - My favourite Super Hero is Spiderman. Somehow I always really connected to him. I like his vulnerability (such a tough word!) and his underdog position in real life. He's a super hero with a constant struggle, that makes him very human and close
to identify with. I love his superpowers and his gadgetry too!

GB - You’ve worked with some huge stars such as Black Eyed Peas, Christina Aguilera and Calvin Harris but who’s been your favourite to work with?

LBL - I love working with anyone I think I can add some of my flavour onto and make it an amazing project! No specific favourite though. Every project is a different one and I so enjoy doing it!

GB - Have you got any plans for any new collaborations this year?

LBL - My latest collaboration will be together with Steve Aoki and Lil' Jon on the track we named 'Turbulence'. It's been a monster on my dancefloor!

GB - Who would you most like to team up with for a record?

LBL - Anyone I play his or her records from, but in my dreams it would be wonderful to have a collab with Timberland or Daft Punk as I really look up to them.

GB - So what can people expect to hear from your Gatecrasher set?

LBL -Expect a lot of energy and fun in the house music/electro-flirting-with-trance area. Of course I'll bring the Laidback Luke bootlegs and tracks as well.

GB - And when can we expect a new Laidback Luke album any time soon?

LBL - Not sure! We're focussing on the singles at the moment. We released 'Till Tonight' with a video and all and it's getting good airplay on radio and TV in Europe. The new single is lined up already as well.

GB - What’d DJ schedule like for the rest of the year?

LBL - One word: Full. It's an absolute dream come true. It's hard work, I take about 200 flights a year, but I've always pushed hard to reach this level. I'm very thankful for it!

GB - This is your second time at Gatecrasher Birmingham what do you think of the club?

LBL - Oh no, I think this might even be the fourth time at Gatecrasher Birmingham? I absolutely love it! It's a proper proper club and I'm happy to be invited over and be given a shot to smash the hell out of the night : )

GB - You are a champion of new music – who should we be looking out for?

LBL - Well this is certainly the year of my man Afrojack. Please keep an eye on the releases of my own label called Mixmash Records as I sign and release loads of new talent there. The tracks I sign are trialled and tested on my dancefloor so I know they will work for a lot of DJs out there!

Laidback Luke returns to Gatecrasher Birmingham, after a sell out show back in February, on Bank Holiday Saturday 28th August as part of the Festival Of Ibiza in Birmingham.

This week Globe trotting superstar Will.I.Am from the biggest band in the world rocked up to Gatecrasher Birmingham for an exclusive intimate house / Electro DJ Set on Saturday 8th May.

Will.I.Am has gained superstardom with one of the biggest bands in the world but is also an artist in his own right. Beginning to rap at the tender age of 16 years old under the name of Will -1X and being signed to Former N.W.A's Eazy-E's Ruthless Records with his first release being "Merry Muthsfuckin Xmas". Since then, Will.I.Am has also enjoyed success with his own singles and collaborated with artists such as Akon, Flo Rider, David Guetta, Rihanna and most recently recording 4 singles on Girls Aloud's Cheryl Cole for her debut solo album including "Heartbreaker", "Heaven", "3 Words" and "Boy Like You"

Aside from being a very successful artist and producer, Will.I.Am is no stranger to the decks often performing his mix of house and electro at the end of tour dates and has played at high profiles clubs all over the world. This isn't just a case of another artist taking to the decks and selling out shows based purely on his name, he is very technically talented DJ and we can't wait to have him working his magic in the main room of Gatecrasher Birmingham.

Joined by usual suspects Jimmy Kennedy, Dave Thatcher, Get Carter, The Saturday Night Project DJs Joe Hunt & Tom Shorterz and the smoothest RnB in Bed with lee Smith.
