DJRUM jungle to techno set in The Lab LDN
The Lab LDN queue is always a fashion show for people who wear way too much Gore-Tex indoors. Techno tourists praying they get in the background of the YouTube rip while pretending they understand jungle breaks. The venue is dark, sweaty, and vibrating with sub-bass as the strobe lights slice through the thick East End air. This DJRUM live set is technically mind-blowing, averaging a blistering 148.7 BPM and ripping from 125 to 176.
Mixing through 12A and 6A keys, his wizardry bridges jungle and Techno seamlessly with massive low-end energy. Diving into the DJRUM The Lab LDN tracklist, 'Loleatta Holloway - Stand Up! (Pangaea's Mix)' is a proper hidden gem. Throwing in 'Mochakk - Jealous' is absolutely mad but it completely works. The arc of the journey is wild.
The opening track is an 'Unknown - Unknown' dubplate that immediately rattles the ribcage. The set peaks beautifully with Calibre's 'You Used To Listen', and the closing track 'DEEJAYALEXANDERNYC - Reggae' is a curveball of the highest order that leaves the room stunned.
