This bank holiday Chris is set to smash the Ministry of Sound to pieces alongside Mark Knight and all the usual suspects. Check the post below for more info. With anticipation building ahead of the night, the Toolroom PR team got in touch with Chris and fired some quick shot questions. Check out the article at Toolroom's Facebook Page to find out about future collabs, releases and much more….

 Toolroom Knights return to London for the BIG Bank Holiday weekend, taking over Ministry of Sound on Saturday 1st May with an all-star DJ line-up that speaks for itself; Mark Knight, Benny Benassi, Chris Lake, Tocadisco (and that’d just be in the main room!)
.. ..
Following the roadblock success of February’s party, and more recently the mayhem and madness that was Toolroom Knights on the Terrace at Space-Miami during the winter music conference, Mark Knight once again leads the way for, what promises to be, another legendary Toolroom party. Special guest, Benny Benassi, makes a welcome return to the main room – his first UK appearance in over 18 months. Busy in the studio, working with chart-topping star Kelis on tracks for her forthcoming album, Benassi is guaranteed to bring the bass. Chris Lake and Tocadisco, celebrate the release of their forth-coming Toolroom Knights mix compilation and complete this stellar main room line-up.
.. ..
Over in the Bar, it’s all about the labels’ rising stars, as Toolroom’s ‘Leaders of the New School’ host the party with Filthy Rich, Pete Griffiths, Gina Star, Mark Storie and George Andrews at the controls. Upstairs in the Loft, we’re super excited to welcome UK house legend Graeme Park, playing a special 5 hour ‘classics’ set to celebrate 21 years of Gio Goi and launch their commemoratory mix album. London’s Electronic Sessions bring their Mayday Madness party onto dry land, as they moor up and take over the Baby Box with their full crew in toe.
.. ..
The Toolroom special entry offer continues – tickets purchased on the door receive a FREE Toolroom Knights CD mixed by Fedde le Grand, and for advanced ticket holders the CD will be available on the night for £5. (this CD would normally retail in stores at £12.99!!)
.. ..
There’s more…Toolroom have teamed up with Ministry of Sound to offer you the chance to win an AMAZING Prize that includes: 1 night's stay at an exclusive London boutique hotel, VIP entry for you and a friend to the Toolroom Knights May party, meet the Toolroom DJ’s, a table in VIP & drinks on the house, a year on Toolroom’s ‘Leaders Of The New School’ DJ promo list, signed Toolroom Knights CDs, a Toolroom Records CD wallet and a limited edition Toolroom Knights Miami t-shirt!

So the guys and gals…(err… that sounds weird…) at DJ Mag have been kind enough to review the latest Rising track, by mr Nelski… check out his banter on twitter, or… you could just listen to ever so cheeky beats… more to follow in the form of Jesse Rose and Radio Slave…!!!

As we are fast approaching summer it's time to have a quick look back at the top party of the WMC!

The Beatport Beach Party presented by Beatport, Pioneer and Armani Exchange took place at Gansevoort Hotel's private beach.

The night boasted twenty five of the worlds top DJ's including Afrojack, AN21, Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso, Mark Knight and our very own Chris Lake.

The Beatport team went all out this year and teamed up with Insomniac Events of Los Angeles and Opium Group of Miami to showcase a bigger and better production, visuals and sound!

Enjoy! 

The lambs are bouncing, the skies are lighter… yes spring in the UK has finally arrived!! With Miami now a done deal for this year, it’s time to reflect on the WMC season and what’s potentially to come in Ibiza this year…

Join Chris Lake for sixty minutes of fresh house, tech house and an old favorite in the form of a blast from the past!
