Legendary DJ Derrick May returns for the third instalment of his 6 Mix residency. Fresh from his New Years Eve DJ dates around Europe, the techno pioneer kicks of 2010 with a selection of the hottest beats from Detroit and beyond. Best known for his hit single 'Strings Of Life', Derrick has been the leading light of Detroit's electronic music scene for over two decades, working alongside musicians Kevin Saunderson and Juan Atikins to keep the Motor City's musical flag flying, as well as running his own label, Transmat recordings. For the third of his 6 Mix shows, Derrick will be broadcasting live from 6 Music's studios, sharing his favourite tunes and tales from 2009. In the last hour there will also be another one of Derrick's infamous 'May Day' club mixes, playing classic old skool club tunes alongside brand new music from around the world.
