999999999 - Awakenings Easter Festival 2022
Nothing says "Happy Easter" quite like 150 BPM industrial kick drums and people in matching black harnesses chewing their own faces off. The Berghain queue cosplay is out in full force at Awakenings, with lads in matrix sunglasses desperately trying to look miserable while having the time of their lives. A proper mad family day out. The vibe is a cavernous, laser-scorched tent where the air feels thick enough to punch and the bass threatens to rearrange your internal organs.
Strap in, because this 999999999 live set averages a blistering 152.5 BPM. The key progression is aggressively rooted in 12A, keeping the sonic tension constantly at a boiling point. With the low-end energy maxed out, it's a relentless, driving assault on the senses. The 999999999 Awakenings Easter Festival tracklist is a weapon's grade selection of hard techno.
Throwing in the Perc remix of Cassie Raptor's "Anger Volcano" alongside Bountyhunter's "Woops" shows they aren't here to play nice. The carnage begins instantly with the opening track, Ardl's "Everybody In The Basement". Wndrlst's "Vertigo" provides a face-melting peak, before they mercilessly finish us off with the closing track, Insigma's "Open Your Eyes (The Thrillseekers 2020 Vision Mix) [Mixed]".
