Armand Van Helden

New York producer Armand Van Helden has made a huge impact on the charts over the years with his biggest success being the dance remix of 'Professional Widow' by Tori Amos in 1996 which reached Number 1 in the UK and was a club hit across the globe. Remixes of artists as varied and unlikely as the Rolling Stones, Janet Jackson and Puff Daddy have brought him a string of mainstream hits since including 'You Don't Know Me' and 'My, My, My'.

Redlight (formerly DJ Clipz) is an accomplished head from the world of underground dance music whose considerable talents have overflowed into new areas. The results are undeniably impressive - a 1Xtra show, a shed load of hit singles, chart entries and huge festival appearances.

The past few years have seen him release hit after hit with collaborations with Mz Bratt on 'Selecta' and Ms Dynamite for 'What You Talking About' being notable successes. His recent release 'Get Out My Head' has blown up and exploded into the charts entering in the top 20 and has topped dance charts across the globe.

Sarah Story has always had her eye on the prize. This plucky young broadcaster, DJ and singer-songwriter has always known who she is and precisely where she’s wanted to be. Her Friday night spot on Radio 1 has given her the platform to be able to support artists old and new and champion more female artists and non-binary people, something that’s extremely important to her. With the ever evolving music scene and constant new stream of artists, Sarah feels honoured to be at the forefront of that as a new voice on Radio 1, that gets to champion them on national radio every Friday night.

Aside from the radio and her own expanding DJ sets, Sarah’s also been the host of BACKSTORY, a podcast delving into the stories of some of the industry’s most interesting and intriguing names, including Eats Everything, DJ Paulette, Bklava and one of the UK’s favourite drag queens, Jodie Harsh. She’s also been working on topline writing and production. But ask her what really keeps her mind ticking outside of her creative box and she returns to the importance of curation.
