Frank the Dog howls along to a Young Punx remix while Hal, Betto and Nathan serve up drum & bass, electro house, nu-disco, grime and other questionable choices. There are exclusive recordings of Dizzee Rascal rehearsing with The Young Punx live band, plus a gloriously insane mashup of D Double E’s ferocious grime freestyle with the gentle, nostalgic gallery music from children’s TV classic Take Hart. It has absolutely no right to work, but somehow it’s brilliant. Meanwhile, a Scandinavian snack review investigates sweets named Plopp, Spunk and Skumbananer, with Frank providing his own critical perspective. Nathan unveils his ominously named Dark Corner, and an old John Scofield jazz-house bootleg gets an airing. The cultural significance of all this is, naturally, enormous.

Newham Generals (Footsie and D Double E) descend on The Young Punx studio for live grime PAs, freestyles and a chat about the scene’s underground roots. Breakage’s Hard, Head Get Mangled and Dat Guy collide with dubstep, electro house and drum & bass, while rum and Coke finds its way onto Hal’s brand-new computer. There’s an unexpected investigation into the world of furries before the Generals dash off to catch the last Tube. The survivors press on with a Boy George acoustic remix featuring Jamiroquai guitarist Rob Harris, and Betto’s one-finger Kaossilator piano recital. A thoroughly professional evening.

A gong gets trapped in a pair of skis during two hours of electro house, fidget, dubstep, grime and drum & bass from a snowy London studio. Hal, Nathan and Betto demonstrate how to give compliments by balancing a bottle on your head and making the recipient dance, while Betto’s listener-sourced girlfriend is becoming alarmingly real. There’s live Dizzee Rascal from the BBC Electric Proms, unreleased Young Punx material, an unexpected detour into The Cure and Roxy Music, and an entirely unnecessary Muppets remix. The last Tube leaves. The show carries on. Naturally.

A real fire alarm hijacks a drunken fidget house and new rave DJ set… and somehow makes it better. A massive storm hits London, triggering a siren we didn’t even know existed. Nobody can turn it off, so Nathan keeps mixing as the alarm seems to fall in time, sometimes even in tune, with the electro-house tracks. Total rave carnage! Plus a special audio shout-out from Don Diablo. And no, we didn’t fake it.

An ill-advised two-minute roast turkey dinner interrupts a 2009 blast of electro house, nu-disco, breaks and early dubstep. Back from Japan, Hal, Betto and Nathan share stories of performing with Count Bass D and discovering Sakanaction, alongside new music from Phonat and an early Avicii remix. There’s news of backing Dizzee Rascal at the BBC Electric Proms, a surprisingly serious debate about Michael Jackson, and a barely audible phone call from Jamiroquai guitarist Rob Harris. Most importantly, Hal launches an international search for a girlfriend for Betto, kicking off a ridiculous saga that will run for several episodes.
