Yves kicks off 2012 with not one but TWO tracks in the Cool Cuts Charts!
It’s not even a week in to the new year and already Yves is off to a flying start. The very first Cool Cuts Charts of 2012 has just landed and in at #17 is Yves and Tony Sylla’s huge remix of ‘Viva Las Vegas’, while smashing in at #20 is Yves’ huge new double hitter Friday Is Dark / Tape. If this is the shape of things to come then it looks like we’re in for a truly Larockin’ year!!

WIN AN EXCLUSIVE JOHN ISAAC GENEVE WATCH, COURTESY OF SWISS SENSATION YVES LAROCK AND LOADED MAGAZINE!
WIN AN EXCLUSIVE JOHN ISAAC GENEVE WATCH, COURTESY OF SWISS SENSATION YVES LAROCK AND LOADED MAGAZINE!
Hot off the back of an insane summer, Swiss super-producer Yves Larock now returns to lift the veil on what is, without doubt, one of the biggest competitions of the year. Teaming up with veteran lads-mag Loaded, the pair have joined forces with master watchmaker John Isaac Genève to give YOU the chance of winning one of the most beautiful wrist watches to come out of Switzerland in years!
Yves Larock has been at the forefront on innovative dance music since he smashed into global awareness with first Zookey and then Rise Up. Hit after hit followed, as tracks like Girl, Until Tomorrow, Milky Way, Running Man and now The Zoo graced dance floors and airwaves around the world – thanks in no small part to his own MiliaRock radio show which pulls in a staggering 17 million+ listeners each week!
Yves’ meticulous attention to detail combined with his unwavering passion for his art are just some of the similarities he shares with countryman and master craftsman John Isaac, the brains behind the exquisite Rough Sea timepiece. Worth £1,390 and available only at Harrods in the UK or online at www-johnisaacgeneve.com, the watch has been designed with the new consumer generation firmly in mind, and combines the unmatchable tradition and quality of Swiss watchmaking with stunning cutting edge style and 21st century innovation, giving you what you want, when you want it and exactly to the specifications you demand.
**To win, all you have to do is visit www.loaded.co.uk, watch the ridiculous and bizarre video of Larock’s last dancefloor masterpiece ‘The Zoo’, and tell us how many times Yves appears on a flyer. Easy peasy!**

LAROCK IN SPACE!!
LAROCK IN SPACE!!
Fans of Yves Larock will get the super-rare chance to see him live in Ibiza on Monday September 12th, as the Swiss über-producer joins Roger Sanchez for the Release Yourself party at the world’s #1 club Space.
Self confessed studio-addict Larock will leave the sanctuary of his Parisian set-up to jet into the White Isle for just two dates this summer, tearing himself away from his equipment long enough to headline alongside Sanchez at Space and at the Delano Beach Club on Thursday September 15th.
With upcoming single The Zoo already confirmed as signed to as many as three major labels in Europe, and with huge support from Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren, Erick Morrillo, Kaskade, Ferry Corsten, Bad Boy Bill, Gareth Emery, Eddie Halliwell, Jesse Vorn, Ericke E, Marco Lys, Peter Gelderblom, Stonebridge, Funkagenda, Sharam, Robbie Rivera, Burt Claessen, Sebastien Drums and more, September looks set to be a huge month for Larock in the studio and the dance floor.

Tiesto showing some serious love for The Zoo!
Tiesto showing some serious love for The Zoo!
We’ve had some great reactions to my new tune The Zoo over the summer months, but none more so than the confirmation this morning of a hat-trick of appearances on Tiesto’s massive Club Life radio show! For the past three weeks, The Zoo (original mix) and The Zoo (Houseshakers remix) have been aired by the man himself to countless listeners all around the world. It’s a massive honour for me of course, and confirms what we all thought when we listened to the final version here in my studio in Paris – we have a hit on our hands!
I’ll be able to give you more information on the release date of The Zoo in the coming weeks so stay tuned – and if you’re a fan of DJ radio shows then don’t forget to check out my MilliaRock show each week on FM and online stations around the world – news of more stations coming later this week!
Peace guys and have a great week,
Yves

Planes, trains and automobiles!
Planes, trains and automobiles!
Hi guys,
Firstly massive apologies for everyone who came out to see me at the Summer Beach Party in Neuchatel on Sunday night – I had huge travel problems coming back from Sri Lanka and ended up stranded in Dubai Airport – not the best night’s sleep I’ve ever had. Really wish I could have been there but I’m sure it went off anyway and at least everyone in Switzerland had the day off to recover thanks to a perfectly placed national holiday 
And apart from a truly hellish journey back, Hikka Festival, Sri Lanka, what can I say but wow!? Truly an amazing experience, beautiful people, stunning weather, great music and a chance to meet a lot of fans which I always love. I also took time out before my set to speak to the guys from Sun FM, where you can catch the MilliaRock radio show in Sri Lanka every Saturday starting this weekend (August 6th) between 2pm and 3pm.
For now, I’m going to relax a little, get over ‘that’ flight and wish everyone a great and productive week

Yves to take Sri Lanka by storm with interview and new radio residency announced!
Yves to take Sri Lanka by storm with interview and new radio residency announced!
Like the Beach Boys once said, I get around! Since I started DJing I’ve been lucky enough to visit some of the world’s most amazing cities and countries from all across Europe to the Americas, Asia and beyond. Next weekend I’ll be returning to one of my favourite destinations, Sri Lanka, for the Hikka Festival. Not only am I really looking forward to revisiting what is surely one of the most beautiful places anywhere on our planet, but I’ll also be launching MilliaRock on Sri Lanka’s number 1 radio station Sun FM!
If you’re lucky enough to be at the Hikka Festival then be sure to come down and see me play – and also tune in to Sun FM over the coming weeks where you’ll be able to win VIP tickets and a chance to meet me before I go out to play. In the meantime, I sat down with the guys from The Colombo Spirit to chat about DJing, music and life in general – enjoy!
