Live at Anjunadeep x Printworks London 2022 ( @MoonBootsMusic)
Moon Boots at Printworks for Anjunadeep—a pairing so predictably joyous it’s like complaining about sunshine. We’re here for the disco filters, the soaring vocals, and the shared, unironic delight of a perfectly placed piano riff. The vast, industrial cathedral of Printworks is transformed into a house music paradise, all kinetic lighting and thousands of hands in the air. This is a masterclass in deep, soulful house, with a tight BPM average of 127.6 and a harmonic focus on the uplifting 12A and funky 10B keys.
The energy is squarely in the low-end (0.70 avg), providing a rubbery, infectious foundation that makes every melodic flourish feel earned. The mixing is smooth and song-focused, allowing anthems to breathe while maintaining a relentless, feel-good momentum. The tracklist is a treasure trove: his own 'Ride Away' ft. Steven Klavier is the perfect, sun-drenched opener.
'Pig&Dan & Gregor Tresher - Granular' injects a welcome dose of sleek, modern techno tension, while 'Adryiano - Esoteric Tulum Banger' lives up to its name with balmy, exotic rhythms. 'Mark Mackenzie - Euro Disco Weapon' is a hilarious and effective curveball, and the mysterious 'Ricardo Villalobos - Enfants (ID Remix)' as the closer is a stroke of genius, a minimal, heads-down groove to see us out. The set launches on the nostalgic high of 'Ride Away', peaks with the communal release of a track like 'Love Will Remain', and winds down into the sophisticated, after-hours murmur of that Villalobos edit.
