Radio 1 will mark its 500th Essential Mix later this month with a special live broadcast. Who the 500th DJ to fill the two-hour slot will be is a secret, and his or her identity will only be revealed on the night. Candidates for the honour were nominated by former Essential Mix DJs, including Carl Cox, Paul Van Dyk and Tiësto, while the final mixer was chosen by a panel of dance music industry experts including Pete Tong, Annie Mac, Judge Jules, Cream's James Barton, Mixmag's Ralph Moore and Resident Advisor's Nick Sabine.

Pete Tong, who provided the first ever Essential Mix and has hosted the show since it began, told CMU: "Bringing the Essential Mix to the nation on Radio 1 has always and continues to excite me. It's always been a platform to showcase the best DJ talent and new music from around the world, whether it be legends of dance music or future stars. The thing that excites me most is introducing new genres and breaking artists to a wider audience. There have been 500 fantastic essential mixes - here's to another 500!"

Radio 1's Deputy Controller, Ben Cooper added: "The list of contributors to the Essential Mix reads like a who's who of dance music and underlines the programme's significant part in popularising the genre. The list also highlights the show's unique ability to inform listeners every week of dance music's many musical shifts and trends from 1993 to the present day".

The 500th Essential Mix will be broadcast live from the Circus nightclub in Liverpool on 24 Apr from 1am to 3am, followed by live sets from Sasha and Richie Hawtin. The identity of the landmark mixer will be revealed on Pete Tong's show on 23 Apr between 9pm and 11pm.

Organisers of the electronic music focused International Music Summit, which takes place in Ibiza from 26-28 May, will include a keynote interview with Mark Ronson.

David Guetta, Luciano, Annie Mac, Erick Morillo, Skream, Arthur Baker and Robin Millar are also all set to speak, plus reps from Coke, Ministry, Radio 1, Beatport and Resident Advisor will all be on hand to offer some insights and world-renowned telly music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas will be offering some sync tips geared towards dance music types. Hmm, wonder if me mentioning how cool this all sounds here might persuade said organisers to fly me over there to cover the event and ramble on about music copyright or 360 degree business models? Let's see, shall we?

Commenting on the event's provisional conference line up, IMS co-founder Ben Turner told reporters: "IMS was never about the artists, more the people behind the curtain who help guide the gifted. [But] in 2010, we've been overwhelmed by approaches from artists to be involved in some way. It's a great testament to our first two years. Watch out for more special names to follow..."

Radio 1 and 1Xtra will be broadcasting live from Newcastle (upon-Tyne, sorry under-Lyme types) from 4-6 Mar from a series of events being staged under the BBC station's In New Music We Trust banner.

Each of the days will have a genre bias, with Zane Lowe and Nick Grimshaw doing the indie schmindie thing on Thursday, Annie Mac, Kutski and the old guys doing dance stuff on Friday and Westwood and the 1Xtra groovy boys going all urban like on Saturday. The DJs will be hosting all sorts of new talent artists wise.

Radio 1 Live Events chief Neil Wyatt told CMU: "We're really looking forward to bringing In New Music We Trust Live to Newcastle for three nights of amazing broadcasts. This event really underlines BBC Radio 1 and Radio 1xtra's commitment to continually support new and live music throughout the year".

Annie Mac will release a new two disc compilation, cleverly titled 'Annie Mac Presents', via Island next month.

Describing its contents, she says: "The first CD is an hour of more peak time stuff. It's indicative of a typical DJ set for me, starting off a bit bouncy and fun and then getting a little harder and ending in dubstep. CD two is for when you get home from the club at whatever o'clock in the morning. It's got a gorgeous mix of Florence And The Machine by the very talented Leo Zero and some lovely Balearic dubstep from Caspa and Martyn and Cooly G, plus some bands that I like".

The Annie Mac Presents tour will also be back in October and November. For full details go to www.anniemacpresents.com. The album is out on 26 Oct.
