Dave Pearce meets DJ and record label boss Mike Pickering to talk about his life in dance music The resident DJ at the 'Nude' and 'Hot' nights at Manchester's infamous Hacienda night club, Mike went on to form the Mercury Award winning dance group M- People before becoming involved in dance label Deconstruction, which signed Brothers in Rhythm and Way Out West amongst others. In this special show Mike plays Dave the records which have inspired his life in dance music from Hacienda classics through to contemporary acts. He also talks about the history of the Deconstruction label - including signing acts like Sasha and Kylie Minogue - and tells Dave why he's decided to resurrect the label to launch a raft of new dance acts including the hotly tipped Diagram Of The Heart. In the last half hour of the show, there's a chance to hear Mike in the mix, recorded at Manchester's Warehouse Project in December last year.
