Kettama
Awakenings Festival 2025
Enter the realm of the post-ironic raver, wearing wrap-around servo sunnies and vintage Umbro trackies while pretending 90s eurodance is high art. They’re absolutely losing their minds to a nostalgic vocal chop, desperately hoping their TikTok draft captures the exact moment the bass kicks in. Awakenings Festival 2025 turns into a sweaty, unapologetic rave bunker where heavy kicks meet pure unadulterated euphoria. Diving into the Kettama Awakenings Festival 2025 tracklist, you're hit with a thumping 141 BPM baseline.
Dominating the 12A Camelot key, the set maintains a high-octane, bouncy energy arc that never takes itself too seriously. The mixing style in this Techno live set is fast, punchy, and littered with rapid-fire chops that keep the momentum absolutely flying. Kettama’s crate digging is legendary for entirely the wrong (read: right) reasons. Mashing up G-house sleaze like DJ Slugo’s "Wouldn't You Like to Be a Hoe Too" with his own monster KETTAMA Remix of Calvin Harris’s "Blessings" is top-tier shithousery.
Igniting the madness with a thumping Unknown opening track, the crowd is instantly dragged into the trenches. The absolute scenes peak around Fred again.. & Skepta's "Victory Lap", before he bows out with a frankly ridiculous closing track: Dimitri Vegas & Steve Aoki's spin on "2 Times". Proper sorted.
