Defected takeover with KARIZMA B2B DJ SPEN in The Lab IBZ
A Defected takeover in The Lab Ibiza with veterans Karizma and DJ Spen going back-to-back? That's our cue to expect nothing less than a textbook lesson in soulful, musical house music, delivered with the confidence of DJs who have forgotten more records than we'll ever own. The vibe is pure Ibiza sunset session—warm, open-air, and emotionally charged. This is deep, soul-infused house at its finest, locked into a rolling 124 BPM groove and making expert use of harmonic mixing, particularly between the 3B and 12A keys, to create a seamless, flowing narrative.
The energy is beautifully balanced, allowing both the deep, jazzy basslines and the soaring vocal hooks their moment in the sun. The crate digging is impeccable: 'Joey Negro & The Sunburst Band - Journey To The Sun (Dennis Ferrer Remix)' is a timeless spiritual epic, 'Lars Vegas - The Game' is a driving, percussive weapon, and 'Dam Swindle - Figure of Speech' adds a touch of modern, sample-heavy flair. They take us on a classic journey, opening with the sunny, piano-laced 'Amine Edge & DANCE & Blaze - Lovelee Dae,' building to a hands-in-the-air peak with the anthemic 'Duke Dumont - Won't Look Back,' and closing on the deep, jazzy instrumental vibe of 'Tiioma - Dialekt.'.
