Factory 93 presents SANTE and SIDNEY CHARLES in The Lab LA
Welcome to the Factory 93 takeover, where the LA crowd cosplays as Berlin warehouse veterans. It is a room full of painfully cool people wearing oversized black vintage t-shirts, keeping their sunglasses firmly on to hide the fact they haven't slept since Thursday. But despite the moody aesthetic, when the groove locks in, the Lab LA completely erupts into a proper, sweaty basement jam. The Santé and Sidney Charles The Lab LA tracklist is an absolute encyclopedia of rolling, Rominimal-infused tech house.
Averaging a deeply infectious 124.9 BPM, the duo blitzes through an insane 65 tracks, anchoring the madness in the 12A and 3B Camelot keys. Their B2B mixing is a masterclass in rapid-fire layering, chopping up vocal loops and utilizing punchy, mid-range percussive energy to keep the crowd constantly on their toes. The curation in this Santé and Sidney Charles live set is top-tier crate digging. They pull out Paul C & Paolo Martini's "Klong", and absolutely bring the house down with Dennis Ferrer's soulful classic, "Touched the Sky".
The marathon session kicks off immediately with Audiojack's "Fluent" as the opening track. They keep the pressure high for hours before finally bringing the exhausted, sweating room to a close with a seven-minute ride on Brett Johnson's "Runaway" as the closing track. Pure rolling heat.
