Joyhauser
Awakenings ADE 2023
The black turtleneck industry schmoozers are out in force, pretending they aren't absolutely exhausted by Thursday of ADE. You've got to love the techno purists nodding sagely at the kicks like they're evaluating a fine wine. It's properly pretentious, but one glance at the 'Joyhauser Awakenings ADE 2023 tracklist' proves the music is actually doing the talking. The colossal Gashouder is absolutely firing, with overhead light rings turning the dancefloor into a sci-fi interrogation room.
Breaking down this Joyhauser live set, the duo keeps the Techno rolling at a solid 140.0 average BPM. Dominated by the 12A key, the energy arc is a relentless, driving force that pushes the crowd right to the edge. Their mixing style is punchy and authoritative, layering thick basslines with surgical precision. The crate digging is top tier, pulling out massive hidden gems and reimagined classics.
Dropping the Charlotte De Witte & Enrico Sanguiliano remix of 'Age of Love - The Age of Love' causes absolute scenes, while 'Rank 1 - Airwave (Radio Vocal Edit)' is a nostalgic crowd-pleaser that catches everyone off guard. The journey is expertly paced, kicking off with an 'Unknown - Unknown' opening track to establish maximum tension. It reaches a thumping, sweaty peak in the mid-section before winding up for the final blow. The closing track, 'Joyhauser - Dexo', leaves the Amsterdam massive completely sorted and begging for more.
