The list of talent that these guys (Eamon + Justin) put together is nothing short of incredible.
House, disco, techno, soul, breakbeat...you name it and the hottest of the hot are soundtracking your summer Sunday afternoon.
The full line up is below and I will try and put up a mix by each of the guest DJs as I find them online...feel free to help in the comments.
(Note: Whilst speaking of "Sunday Best" one can't help but mention Mr. Rob Da Bank's wonderfully blissfully awesome record label Sunday Best; pop over and have a listen to his podcast.)
