This article is about The Gallery pres Judgement Sundays @ Ministry of Sound in London (UK), Fri 22 May

JUDGE JULES

Morning, how and where does The Gallery find you today?

Finally beginning to feel summer-ish, which beats the hell out of the cold short nights of the winter vibe.

Its Judgement Sunday launch party this Friday - what does Judgement mean to you?
It's the 10th anniversary season of Judgement Sundays, and I can honestly say that you won't witness an atmosphere like it in Ibiza, and trust me, I've been everywhere on the island, big and small.

What can we expect from you this Friday?
Two sets in two rooms, with equal energy in each.

Which three tunes do you predict are going to be big this summer

Anything by Arnej, my new Judgement Rave track.

And you favourite Judgement moment or story
My failed attempts to stage dive from the decks. The huge crowd parted like the sea before Moses, and I kissed the concrete.

OLIVER LANG

Morning, how and where does The Gallery find you today?
In the studio, putting the finishing touches to a remix off my own track "The Siren" which is coming out on soon on Loudbit. I'm also going through my music in preparation for this weekend and for the start of the Ibiza season which for me kicks off Wednesday at Bora Bora.

Its Judgement Sunday launch party this Friday - what does Judgement mean to you?
I've been going to Judgement Sundays in Ibiza since it started back in '99. I do have a penchant for trance music and obviously I play the house/tech house side too. As a whole, the night to me is about having great fun to great music, the atmosphere's always amazing and the line-up's are arranged so you can expect to hear something different all night - it's a guaranteed top party!

What can we expect from you this Friday?
Some chunky tech house music with lots of highs and no lows. I'll be very excited and therefore animated as I've been looking forward to this one for months.

Which three tunes do you predict are going to be big this summer
Sebastian Leger - Snapshot
Federleicht - On The Streets (Kollektiv Turmstrasse’s ‘Let Freedom Ring’ Remix)
Oliver Lang - "Want Me" (Kosmo)

And you favourite Judgement moment or story
Hearing Rank 1 "Airwave" for the first time in Ibiza was a bit of a cliché euphoric moment for me :)

MARCO V

Morning, how and where does The Gallery find you today?
Like always on a Monday morning I’m hard at work in my studio in Holland. I’ve just had a brand new, purpose built studio done in my new house so I’m like a boy in a sweet shop!

Its Judgement Sunday launch party this Friday - what does Judgement mean to you?
The people who go to Judgement are the ones that really like party and that's exactly the kind of people that I want to play for. It’s always been a great event and there’s a real dedicated following for it, so whenever I play there it’s like coming home to a great family who really appreciate the night.

What can we expect from you this Friday?
My new album Propaganda is just released here in Holland it will be out in July in the UK. I did a few new remixes already of the forthcoming singles, so I will drop them this Friday together with the other new stuff from the album. Keep an ear out for them J

Which three tunes do you predict are going to be big this summer
The new remixes from PVD’s classic ‘For An Angel’, DJ Preach’s ‘American Dirt’ and hopefully my own new song ‘Solitary Confinement’ will do well too. The remix I just did rocked the crowd last weekend :)

And you favourite Judgement moment or story
I think it was the first time I ever played for Judgement in Ibiza. I’d already heard some great stories about the kind of party that it was but I didn't expect it to be so great. It really did blow me away, it was a great moment

VICKY DEVINE

Morning, how and where does The Gallery find you today?
Hey there - am good thanks. Am busy in the studio today. Have been working on various tracks ready for the impending Ibiza season, so with just two weeks to go before I go out there for the summer am just putting the finishing touches to those.

Its Judgement Sunday launch party this Friday - what does Judgement mean to you?
This will be my 5th year as the main room resident for Judgement Sundays and I can honestly say there is nowhere in Ibiza I would rather be! The atmosphere at Judgement Sundays is the best you will see at any night on the island, and the music you hear in there is quality from start to finish. I love the way the night represents so many genres of dance music and also the crazy entertainers that appear throughout the night making the event so unique. Being involved with Judgement Sundays both in Ibiza and the UK is like being part of a family and its an honour to be a part of that.

What can we expect from you this Friday?
I'm playing the warm up set which is exactly what I do at the nights in Ibiza, so I will be playing pretty much what I do over there - mainly progressive house and trance with a few classic re-works thrown in for good measure!!

Which three tunes do you predict are going to be big this summer?

Tristan Ingram & Black Russian's remix of La Roux - In for the Kill is going to be absolutely massive, Future Disciples new track called "Soulmate" is also a huge track for me right now - keep an eye out for his new artist album - "Refined", and hopefully my new Track "War of Souls" which is coming out soon on Flux Delux

And you favourite Judgement moment or story?

My favourite moment is definately when I did the live mix from Judgement Sundays for the Radio One Weekend last summer. I was so nervous it was ridiculous, but to be able to do something like that from Ibiza was a dream come true for me.
