Argy for Cercle
at Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe, Switzerland
We're literally at the top of a Swiss mountain, surrounded by glaciers, and half the crowd is still wearing sunglasses like they're in a basement in Berlin. The altitude sickness is real, but the vibes are immaculate. You simply cannot fault the sheer audacity of this Argy Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe, Switzerland for Cercle tracklist. Surrounded by blinding white snow peaks and biting sub-zero winds, the melodic beats echo across the literal roof of Europe.
This Argy live set strikes a perfect balance between melodic Techno and driving house, sitting at a bouncy 127.9 BPM. Leaning heavily on 3B and 12A key progressions, the energy arc is highly cinematic, designed to match the epic drone footage. His mixing is pristine, allowing the massive synth leads to breathe in the thin mountain air. Argy brings out the big guns here.
Slipping in Hardwell's "Apollo" is a massive, hands-in-the-air curveball, whilst his own collaboration with Weekend Heroes, "No One’s Coming", provides serious progressive weight. He kicks off the ascent with his own dramatic opening track, "Faust". The peak altitude madness hits with his huge Baset collab "Sierra", before he drops the ultimate, cheeky 2000s trance-bongo closing track: Safri Duo's "Played-A-Live". Having a laugh, but what a tune.
