Ever covered your flat in bubblewrap, drunk a bottle of night nurse and rolled around the walls till the popping stopped?

So next week, we are joined by Rik Maron, Dave Stenton, and Charlie Bennet, the men behind ToTheBone.

These are three men united by the common bonds of house music, night nurse, and dark, debauched discos. After four years of raising the roof under London's lowest ceilings, they know a thing or two about how to have a party, and I reckon that with them in tow, we should be in for a bit of a session next Saturday.

If you've not heard of them before, try tuning into one of their monthly ToTheBone podcasts – a monthly adventure in radio fuelled by strong booze, weak jokes and lots of Arthur Russell records. To get an idea of what's fueling their musical desires right now, here's their current top 10, in absolutely no particular order:

Hot R.S. - Slow Blow
Ramona Brooks - I Don't Want You Back
Wild Geese - Macho Disco
The Escorts - Make Me Over
The Earons - Land of Hunger
Low Motion Disco - Love Love Love (Soft Rocks remix)
Arthur Russell - Get Around To It
Risque - Thunder & Lightning (on 33 1/3)
$tinkworx - Coelecanth
Nebraska - Soft Return
Look out for more, slightly pointless top tens soon.

If you really can't wait until next Saturday, check out Charlie TTB's latest mix.
