FEED ME in The Lab LA
for a Mau5trap takeover
The Mau5trap label takeover always brings out a very specific demographic: the synth-obsessed tech geeks who spend the entire set staring at the DJ's hands to see if they are actually mixing, and that one guy who insists on wearing a giant, sweaty fiberglass mouse head indoors. But beneath the nerdery, there is an undeniable, gnarly energy pulsing through The Lab, drenched in neon and aggressive basslines. Looking at the Feed Me The Lab LA tracklist, you get a wonderfully bipolar journey disguised as Rominimal but hitting like electro-house warfare.
Averaging 128.0 BPM but swinging wildly between 107 and 164, Feed Me dominates the 12A key to maintain an urgent, buzzing tension. His mixing is razor-sharp, favoring sudden, impactful drops and gritty mid-range frequencies over smooth, long blends. The track selection in this Feed Me live set is brilliantly chaotic.
He drops huge techno rollers like Enrico Sangiuliano's "Astral Projection", before completely shifting gears into his legendary Kill the Noise collaboration, "I Do Coke", which serves as an absolute eight-minute peak-time wrecker. He sets the tone with an "Unknown" opening track, tears through an hour of glitchy, bass-heavy madness, and leaves the room utterly stunned by dropping Avicii & Sebastien Drums' "Snus" as the closing track. Absolute madness.
