Twisted Disco might have sounded off from The Cross with its best party to date last month but that doesn't mean London’s No1 underground party is over. In fact, we have just moved to The Island, the capitals hottest new little club and kick things off with a scorching line up on 22nd December.

Step forward Phil Drummond and Graeme Lloyd, both who are renowned for their outstanding DJing displays. Phil has been rocking dancefloor all over the capital over the past few years and has several outstanding residencies including Retox and Breakfast at The Egg. Expect nothing but the best moving, grooving, rock your ass off house music all night long.

Hard to belive Phil has seen 17 years as a pro DJ. Playing all over the world at many of the biggest venues. Now days, Phil turns his hand to programming parties and has been involved in bringing some of the biggest names in dance music to various clubs including Crobar in Swansea, Jaded@Egg, Formula@Cross, Retox@Sosho, Breakfast@Egg, Formulate@Key, UCL events London. He can currently be found DJing most weekends with Paul Jackson in the cooler end of London clubs & has residencies with Retox@Sosho & Breakfast@Egg. They are just launching a brand new party under the name "LUNA" that will see the boys hosting parties alongside established brands in London's most cutting edge clubs for 2008.

We caught up with Phil to see what he as been up to recently and what we can expect on Saturday...

Tell us what’s new in the world of Phil Drummond?

Lego Star Wars on my PS3…..cant get off the bloody thing!

What have you been up to recently in London and abroad ?

Oooooo been a very busy boy this last couple of months.
Myself, JC & Nikki Wildchild have some great events coming up for 2008.
Some wicked new parties in some great and un-usuall new spaces.
I started my own night with my partner Paul Jackson called “Luna”
On the internation front, its all go too.
Sedition Djs are going from strengh to strengh and have really looked after us.
Had some great gigs in China and Eastern Europe and we’re gonna be on the Great Stuff Records events roster for 2008 too so its looking really good.

Your playing for Twisted Disco at The Island. Have you played there before and what do you think of it ?

Yes I played there recently with Paul Jackson & Gregor Tresher.
It’s a wicked venue, I think it’ll do well and its just what London needs.
Good sound system too.

What``s your favourite country to play in (and why)?

That’s easy……Russia………..The Girls!!!

What do you think of the UK scene at the moment?

I’m sorry to say but the Muppets are winning at the min.
They are far more bad night’s then good. Don’t get me wrong, we have some great clubs and some wicked nights but you gotta hunt em out.

Where is your favorite place to play in the UK?

I’d have to say most of the gig’s I do with Paul are the most fun. We always have a laugh together and one gig that always rocks is Retox@Sosho.
We can play as hard as we like and they keep coming back for more.
Its one of those gigs that all the dj’s want to play at.
Not for the faint hearted though!!!

If you could only play one more club ever, what club would it be and what other DJs would be playing?

My last ever gig would have to be at The Playboy Mansion and it’d have to be with Jacko. He’d play whilst I just run riot!!

Why do you think you``ve been successful as a DJ?

Cos im good!! Nah, seriously I just got very lucky, I started a long time ago, now every fucker seems to be a dj & some real talent gets overlooked.

And as a producer?

Again, we all need that lucky break, mine was having 2 top 5 records in the same year. We did Top Of The Pops and toured the world off the back of it.
I stopped recording a while back because the scene changed so much. It was getting too hard to make a good living out of it although im recording again now because you have too to help get your name abroad, its more of a bussiness card then a money making exercise.

What do you prefer (producing or DJ``ing)?

Djing, I just love the reaction when you drop that killer track to a up for it crowd

What do you like to do away from dance music?

I cant stand these Djs that just live and breath music…..Im into everything, fast cars, faster motorcycles and general bad behaviour. Its what we’re ment to do, that’s why I don’t have a real job!!

Tell us something about you that not many people know?

Im single and looking for a wife (had to get that in somewhere!)
Oh, I have a Blue Peter badge, how many other Djs have erned one of them beauties!!

What have you got coming up in the future?

Loads, I’ve got this far by just messing about really & I intend on taking 2008 very seriously. Im getting to old to change my carer now. This is gonna be my best year to date……….
oh and Twisted Disco@Island of course!!

What can we expect on 22nd December at Twisted Disco?

A right old racket & a cheeky smile!
