Episode 3: Gonkstep special20091223

Gonkstep changed how we think about dance music in 2009. In this show, David Hooper looks at how it all began with the help of Pete Tong and Mary Anne Hobbs, and Scott Mills explains how UK Gonky hit the mainstream.

Plus, is there a dark side to the scene? We investigate.

Listen out too for an exclusive interview with the Gonkfather himself, DJ :

(aka DJ Disappointed Smiley) with the first play of his new single 'Since U Been Gonk'.

Plus some unspeakably disgusting electronica from the likes of Tim Exile, Apparat, Clark, Si Begg, Modeselektor and more.

David discovers how Gonkstep changed dance music. Contains strong language and content.
