#AnjunaUnlocked - Anjunakitchen
at Home with David Hohme (DJ Set)
The pandemic-era phenomenon of the 'kitchen set' may have faded, but the appeal of a world-class DJ playing directly to your living room has not. David Hohme’s Anjunakitchen session is a pristine example—intimate, expertly curated, and proof that you don’t need a mega-club to feel the music in your bones. The vibe is cozy and personal, all warm lighting and the implicit understanding that we’re all in this together, wherever we are. Hohme crafts a deep house narrative that glides at an average 122.8 BPM, with key centers like 4B and 10B providing a slightly melancholic, introspective harmonic flavor.
The mixing is liquid and patient, allowing tracks like the recurring 'Sasheen - Falling' theme to unfold and resonate fully across their extended runtimes. Energy is carefully modulated, with a 66% low-frequency foundation creating a soft, pulsating bed for ethereal pads and subtle melodic hooks to dance upon. It’s a set built for depth and texture, not peak-time aggression. The tracklist is a treasure trove, with 'Sasheen - Falling (Instrumental Mix)' serving as a beautiful, recurring motif.
'Cause Two - Of Clouds' is a shimmering, ambient-leaning highlight, while 'Mister Monj - Running out Time' and 'Matchy - Castor' offer more driving, percussive moments. The journey starts with the atmospheric swell of 'Falling', weaves through various emotional and rhythmic peaks, and finally dissipates into the ambient haze of 'Of Clouds', a perfect bookend for a home-listening experience.
