We stop in with Jim Rivers, rising British DJ and newly minted to the Global Underground family for the next NuBreed compilation. A big deal considering it has been 7 years since the last release, and the series is known for launching careers for Sander Kleinenberg, Danny Howells, Steve Lawler, Lee Burridge, Anthony Pappa and Satoshi Tomiie.

Nope, the thing that everyone was talking about was the smackdown between the newly minted hero of dance music, Steve Angello, and the mistress of vapid evil, Paris Hilton. We’ll keep it short. LIV nightclub at the Fontainebleau. Angello tearing it up. Hilton arrives with her nameless reality show boyfriend. Asks Angello to play hip-hop. Angello says in half-Swedish/half-tequila: “Hell no.” Full-on brawl breaks out between Nameless Reality Douche, Angello’s manager, and finally, Angello! So Pacha is double-proud and super-psyched to welcome Steve Angello:
