I'd like to meet:

Pat Mills // Anthea Bell & Derek Hockridge // Diana Rigg // PJ & Smiley // Ted Maul // Dr Clara Greed // Leo Baxendale // Richard Tomlinson // Diplo // Tim Bentinck // Miriam Margoyles

Music:

A bit of everything, but a spoonful of sugar always helps the medicine go down:

acid house, afrobeat, anarchopunk, baile funk, bashment, bastard pop, bleep, bluebeat, breakbeat, buzzpop, crunk, disco, doris day, downtempo, electro, electro funk, eskibeat, favela beats, folk, funk, gabba, garage, glitch, grime, hardcore, hi-life, hiphop, house, industrial, jungle, klezmer, krautrock, kwaito, lo-fi, lovers rock, mashup, miami bass, new beat, new wave, oi, old skool, psychedelic, psychobilly, punk, quadrille, rare groove, reggaeton, rhythm and blues, rock, rock and roll, rocksteady, roots reggae, salsa, samba, ska, skiffle, soca, soul, sub bass, tech house, techno, uk garage, vaudeville, waila, xoomii, yardcore, zouk, zydeco...
