PETE TONG and JESSE ROSE All Gone Miami '15 Lab LA takeover
When Pete Tong and Jesse Rose tag-team for an All Gone Miami takeover in The Lab LA, you settle in for a history lesson delivered with pristine sound and effortless cool. This is a clinic in timeless house and tech house, where every selection feels both classic and curiously fresh, proving that good grooves never really go out of fashion. The atmosphere is that of a sophisticated pool party after dark, all low lighting and focused appreciation for the craft. Holding a steady, groovy average of 124.7 BPM, the set navigates a sophisticated harmonic path through keys like 7A, 12A, and 8B.
The energy is warm and propulsive, built on rounded basslines and crisp percussion, with Tong and Rose employing a smooth, almost conversational mixing style that lets each track breathe. The balance is impeccable—the low-end provides a deep, comforting throb, the mids are alive with melodic snippets and vocal hooks, and the highs are used sparingly for accent, creating a mature, locked-in vibe. The tracklist reads like a who's who of quality. Joe Impero's 'Out of Brain' is a deep, hypnotic opener.
They journey through the indie-dance charm of Milky Chance's 'Stolen Dance,' the driving tech-house of BAYKER & GHEIST's 'Howl,' and the sheer, unadulterated funk of Claude VonStroke's marathon 'Make A Cake.' Mr. V's 'Jus Dance' gets a wicked Christian Nielsen remix treatment, and Angel Heredia's 'Lucianero' adds a touch of Latin-flavored depth. The set opens with the cerebral thump of 'Out of Brain,' finds its playful peak in the extended bakery antics of 'Make A Cake,' and closes on a smooth, vocal high with Kenny Hawkes & Louise Carver's 'Play the Game.'.
