Jody Wisternoff is best known as one half of Bristol progressive house legends Way Out West and as a producer of dance music spanning early 90s hardcore to slick electro house.
His first break came in the late 1980s as one half of Tru Funk Posse (with his brother Sam) when Bristol producers Smith & Mighty opened up their studio to the two pre-pubescent hip-hoppers. Their tracks were playlisted by British DJ Tim Westwood and the brothers even made it into cult magazine The Face.
In the early 90s Jody Dj'd at massive raves like Universe and Fantasia, playing early breakbeat and hardcore tracks whilst producing classic records like 4am with DJ Die (now of Reprazent fame) under the name SubLove.
However Jody became increasingly tired of the aggressive nature of the hardcore scene and a meeting with fellow DJ Nick Warren in a Bristol record shop saw the birth of the progressive house act Way Out West. Fusing the dub sounds of Bristol with club beats the duo had huge success in the mid to late 90s with tracks like "The Gift" and "Ajare".
In the mid to late 90s Jody was a resident DJ at Temptation a leading Friday night techno and jungle club night at Bristol's Lakota nightclub which was promoted by Bristol based producer Leon Alexander of Hope Recordings.
Recently Jody has been producing 80s inspired electro house, with tracks like "cold drink, hot girl" setting him apart from the competition.

I would put my money on Armin..... not to play a fantastic mindblowing set, but to be the next guest.

It hasn't been confirmed yet, But it might be Deadmau5. If not, It will be more then likely be a 2 hour set by Markus Schulz recorded live from Amnesia.

Great news. Deadmau5 is on fire right now so it could/should be great guest mix. Also Markus set from Amnesia should be cool.
I agree with SPANIARD, Armin's guest mix it's great idea, I love his last year set from "Ibiza Summer Sessions".
