FIXED: JDH & DAVE P in The Lab NYC
The FIXED: JDH & DAVE P set in The Lab NYC is for the deep end of the night, when the crowd has thinned and the conversation turns to synthesis and sentiment. We’re the holdouts, chasing that subtle, brain-tickling frequency that exists between ambient and techno. The vibe is hushed and intimate, with the lab feeling more like a listening party than a rave. Technically, it’s a slow-burn journey, averaging a deliberate 115.7 BPM and residing mostly in the expansive, atmospheric key of 12A. The energy profile is dominated by profound lows (0.70), with mids (0.22) providing subtle melodic guidance and barely-there highs (0.07)—this is music felt in the chest and the subconscious.
The mixing is patient and textural, allowing tracks like the 23-minute Joshua M. - Traverse the Cosmos to breathe and unfold. For crate diggers, this is deep, cerebral fare. Underworld - If Rah as the opener is a statement of intent, all glitchy abstraction and coiled potential. Miklós Spányi & Silbermann - Toccata and Fugue In D Minor is a breathtaking, classical-meets-electronica curveball.
Pitto - You (Noir Remix) is a deep house gem of aching beauty, and Moscoman - Fernandez (Red Axes Remix) adds a dash of psychedelic, organic weirdness. Sothzanne String - Live Your Dreams as the closer is a perfect, beatless resolution. The journey begins in the abstract world of If Rah, peaks with the epic, cosmic exploration of Traverse the Cosmos, and dissolves into the serene aftermath of Live Your Dreams. A JDH & DAVE P live set that rewards close listening, a full tracklist for the deep house and ambient techno connoisseurs among us.
