Festivals may have been drifting towards the past tense recently but we’re giving them one final hurrah, and this week’s podcast reverberates to one of the best still left in 2013, Mint Festival. Located in the rather swish Lotherton  Hall in Leeds, this year sees headline turns from Marco Carola, Seth Troxler, Ferry Corsten and plenty more in a complete snapshot of everything exciting in electronic music at present. We’ve been quite excited about the festival all summer, so you can read the words we’ve already wrote in their honour right here.

This mix comes from Felix Leiter, resident of Elektriqa in Newcastle and a star who continues to ascend in the world of main room house music. He’s playing as part of the Bitch arena (check our rundown of that part of the festival here) where he’ll be joined by the likes of Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Nervo, Danny Howard and plenty more.

Bitch themselves also turn seven later in the month, head here to read all about that, and this mix is crammed with the type of grooves that have been synonmous with the event over that time period, enabling them to sit so prominently within clubland.

As well as the Mint Festival we also run down the top five we’re looking forward to over the next fortnight, and these being as follows:
