Sidepiece - EDC Las Vegas Virtual Rave-A-Thon
Ah, the early pandemic virtual rave—a time when we all thought dancing in our living rooms while knocking over the Monstera plant was a totally normal Friday night. The Sidepiece EDC Las Vegas Virtual Rave-A-Thon tracklist takes us right back to those unhinged days of wearing full festival kandi while sitting on the sofa waiting for your Deliveroo. It is absolute scenes watching the digital chat fill up with people pretending they are having a spiritual experience via a buffering 1080p stream. The vibe is pure pixelated chaos, bringing massive mainstage energy into the incredibly underwhelming confines of a domestic living room.
Diving into the mechanics of this Sidepiece live set reveals a surprisingly tight and bouncy sonic architecture. Cruising at an average of 127.6 BPM, the duo navigates through a steady 12A and 5A Camelot key progression, ensuring the Rominimal groove never loses its infectious bounce. Their mixing style is quick and punchy, keeping the energy arc constantly elevated to stop you from changing tabs. The crate digger selections are perfectly sorted for maximum living room damage.
Dropping their own VIP edit of 'Acrobatic' is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, while Jaded's 'Dance Much' keeps the serotonin flowing. The locked-in journey begins with an Unknown opening track, immediately setting a cheeky, driving tone. After a frantic thirty minutes of peak-time tech house, the closing track 'I Luv U Baby' by The Original brings the virtual EDC Las Vegas Virtual Rave-A-Thon to a euphoric, nostalgic close.
