The Anjunadeep Edition 265 with James Grant
Shoutout to the podcast listeners pretending they are at an Ibiza day party while aggressively doing the washing up in a flatshare in Hackney. Sometimes you just have to close your eyes and let the fairy lights do the heavy lifting. The melancholic, cinematic warmth washing over the digital airwaves on The Anjunadeep Edition is properly sublime. Delving into the James Grant The Anjunadeep Edition 265 tracklist, it is an expansive Rominimal journey.
Spanning a massive 115 to 176 BPM range, it settles at a 123.7 BPM average. Grant navigates beautifully through 5A, 4B, and 7A keys, prioritizing deep, emotive low-end frequencies. This James Grant live set is an absolute goldmine for crate diggers. Finding Ólafur Arnalds' 'ypsilon' nestled in here is a stroke of genius, and Marsh & Wassu's 'Like You' provides that quintessential Anjuna melodic hug.
The progression of this marathon is stunning. The opening track, Rampue's remix of 'Mimesis' by Thomas Scholz, eases you in with delicate, rolling atmospheres. The mix peaks wonderfully when Robag Wruhme's 'Nata Alma' takes over, wrapping the listener in intricate textures. Signing off in style, the closing track 'Get Me High' by Franky Wah leaves you feeling completely and utterly lifted.
