Eagles & Butterflies
Parc Montsouris in Paris, France for Cercle
Eagles & Butterflies for Cercle—because what's more underground than playing a live set in a Parisian park for thousands of people online? It's the paradox we cherish: intimate music in massive settings, and we're here for every minute. Parc Montsouris in daylight, with trees and open space, giving the music an airy, almost pastoral quality that contrasts beautifully with the deep, driving beats. Steady at 121.6 BPM and centered on the mysterious 2A key, this is melodic techno with a hypnotic, loop-based approach.
The mixing is tight and immersive, creating a trance-like state with minimal fuss, letting the rhythms and melodies do the heavy lifting. For the crate diggers, Tiouan Ducourau's 'Humus' offers organic, earthy textures, while Golden Bug's 'Accroché à moi' brings a touch of French disco flair—a nod to the local flavor. The journey is a slow burn: starting with an unknown opener that sets a contemplative mood, building through the tribal peaks of Diass's 'The Sacred Dance', and culminating in the epic, 11-minute emotional release of Philip George's 'Wish You Were Mine'.
A highlight reel in itself, this Eagles & Butterflies live set tracklist is one to savor.
