Öona Dahl
Live from Anjunadeep x Printworks London 2019 (Official HD Set)
The Printworks nostalgia merchants are crying into their overpriced IPAs, already mourning the venue before the bass has even dropped. You can always spot the 'spiritual experience' lot in the crowd, closing their eyes and swaying like they're trying to contact the dead. It's a proper laugh, but the 'Öona Dahl Live from Anjunadeep x Printworks London 2019 tracklist' is undeniably sorted. The iconic long hall of the printing press venue is illuminated by those legendary laser strips, creating a mesmerising, industrial-meets-ethereal atmosphere.
Analyzing this Öona Dahl live set, she keeps things properly hypnotic, gliding through a tight 122-125 BPM range with a 122.8 average BPM. The set heavily favours the 5A and 7A Camelot keys, crafting a melancholic, progressive Rominimal energy arc that slowly hypnotizes the room. Her mixing style is incredibly patient, layering long, intricate blends that blur the lines between deep and progressive house. Her crate digging is a masterclass in mood-setting, unearthing delicate hidden gems alongside absolute anthems.
Slipping in 'Freemasons - Discopolis (HK Work It Edit)' is a massive, surprising crowd-pleaser, while 'Alan Cerra - Traveller' provides that deep, driving underground groove. The journey is a perfectly paced emotional trip, initiating the ritual with the 'Alvaro Albarran - Tubah - Single' opening track. It steadily builds into a soaring, melodic peak that has the entire warehouse fully entranced. The closing track, 'Holden & Thompson - Nothing (93 Returning Mix)', is a proper classic that leaves the London crowd absolutely devastated in the best way possible.
