Jayda G
Mixmag Lab London
Mixmag's office raves always bring out the absolute worst of the East London creative director class, swaying off-beat in their £400 Carhartt workwear like they've just discovered rhythm. But even the stiffest industry posers can't resist the infectious, undeniable groove of this Jayda G Mixmag Lab London tracklist. The room is a sweaty, joyous house party, lit by the sheer megawatt power of Jayda’s legendary behind-the-decks dancing. This Jayda G live set is a proper Rominimal and classic house workout, cruising at a vibrant 126 BPM. She locks the room into 3B and 12A keys, crafting an energy arc that feels less like a calculated DJ set and more like a massive, spontaneous celebration.
Her mixing style is raw, energetic, and completely devoid of the sterile perfection favored by the modular synth bores. The crate digger picks are top tier, dropping massive crowd-pleasers like 'Robin S. - Show Me Love (Extended Mix)' and 'X-Press 2 - Muzik X-Press' to cause absolute scenes. The journey is a masterclass in vibe curation. Throwing down 'Sylvester - I Need You' as the opening track sets an instantly euphoric tone.
The peak comes when 'Ministers De La Funk - Believe (feat. Jocelyn Brown)' tears the roof off, before she leaves everyone beaming with the iconic closing track, 'Chaka Khan - Ain't Nobody'. Sorted.
