Have you tried liquid drum and bass for breakfast? It’s delicious! Try it with a mimosa cocktail or with a bloody mary, depending on your hungover state! =) I love liquid drum and bass, with its “logical progression” bass, its jungle beat and a bit of grime mixed up in a good measure. Liquid drum and bass tunes are beautiful, dreamful, uplifting. Soulful, luscious, sexy. A bit cheesy sometimes, specially on the lyrics and some piano or horns melodies, but it does its job delivering progressive bliss, and keeping pumping on the dancefloor. This is my very last at Nowhere 2017, 2 early morning hours that flew by smoothly. After my actual last closing set on Saturday night, when we had to respect sound policy and to switch off our Function One racks at 7AM, I’ve plugged the exit of my Traktor controller into a Minirig speaker and served some liquid drum and bass for breakfast to the last ravers who still want to keep dancing. Because we neverfuckingstop, remember? =) This year at Nowhere I’ve been playing every day, including before and after the official festival dates, and I selected 5 sets to share, those with mostly new tracks, and with different styles.

My DJ set for the Burning Man event of Roman Burners in November 2016, an experiment I decided to make because after all, this is what Burning Man is about… I normally play techno and other electronica, from acid house to psychedelic beats, but I’ve never played drum’n’bass before, though I’ve been dancing to a lot of progressive D’n’B back in the ’90s. So I decided to finally drop the bass with the drum, while swinging back and forth from techno during the burn, with a session I like to call “techno’n’drum’burn”. Enjoy the bipolar beats!
