Awakenings Festival 2018 Sunday - Liveset Adam Beyer
Area V
There's always that one bloke at Awakenings in a vintage bucket hat who won't stop talking about his modular synth setup. Bless him, he’s just waiting for the breakdown to whip out his phone torch and cry. The massive industrial tent at Area V is an absolute sweatbox, lasers slicing through the thick fog like neon machetes. This Techno masterclass sits at a relentless 130.3 BPM, dominated completely by the 12A key to create a hypnotic, droning tension.
The low-end energy is a massive 0.7521, meaning the kick drum is properly bruising ribs. Beyer’s mixing style is clinical, layering heavy percussion loops with brutal precision. The Adam Beyer Area V tracklist is a masterclass in big-room artillery. Blending a Timmo Rework of Emmanuel Top’s "Acid Phase" with "Space Date (Original Mix)" is just showing off.
The Adam Beyer live set launches immediately into the darkness with the opening track "Murmer" by Arjun Vagale. The absolute highlight of the night is the spine-tingling "Music Is the Answer (Mixed)" by Celeda & Danny Tenaglia, leading into the monstrous closing track "Symbiosis" by Enrico Sangiuliano.
