Random Impulse - Changed The Way You Kiss Me (Example Re-Fix)

After his massive re-work of DJ Fresh's number one single last weekend, Random Impulse has now decided to take Example's chart topping Changed The Way You Kiss Me and put his own unique twist on it. Season 3 of the re-fix series has started with a bang, and I only expect it to get better, so do yourself a favour and subscribe to his YouTube channel NOW.

Laidback Luke vs. Example - Natural Disaster

A big video for the euphoric collaborative single from Laidback Luke & Example, which will be released on October 16th. As well as featuring on Example's massive No.1 album, Playing In The Shadows, this will also act as Laidback Luke's first release on Ministry Of Sound since signing to the label last month - a great choice, if you ask me. Pre-order HERE.

All you need to do to enter is register to The House Of Coxhead (top right) and then send an e-mail to tjc89209@hotmail.co.uk with your real name, Twitter name and answer to the following question:

Everyone knows Example is a big sneaker head, but exactly how many pairs of trainers does he own?

Congratulations to the winner, @Christy_Example, who was the only person to get the answer correct.
