Armand Van Helden
Boiler Room : Miami
Enter the 'take me back' Instagram captioners, spending the entire set trying to get the perfect blurry photo of the DJ booth to prove they have an edgy nightlife. They’re dressed exclusively in black, looking deeply troubled by the fact that people around them are actually smiling and dancing. Regardless of the doom-scrollers, the energy in this vast warehouse is absolutely massive, illuminated by a frantic array of strobes. This [DJ] live set is a high-octane Electronic powerhouse, holding a rock-solid average of 127.7 BPM.
The selector utilizes 12A and 3B key progressions to build a relentless, low-end heavy energy arc, executing razor-sharp cuts that leave no room for catching your breath. A quick glance at the [DJ] [venue] tracklist reveals an unabashed love for massive early 2000s anthems. Dropping "Mylo - Drop the Pressure" right next to "Michael Gray - The Weekend (Radio Edit)" is proper cheeky, turning the floor into an absolute nostalgia riot. The journey is an absolute rollercoaster, launching straight into the deep end with the opening track "C.J.
Bolland - Sugar Is Sweeter". The peak time madness hits flawlessly with "Disaia - Demure (Original Mix)", before the set fades out into the ether with an unidentified white label closing track.
