SETH TROXLER soulful deep tech set in The Lab NYC
The Lab NYC is always a laugh. Brooklyn hipsters sipping artisanal kombucha while pretending they understand Rominimal, sweating in bucket hats indoors like proper techno tourists. Seth Troxler is here to separate the posers from the heads. The venue is bathed in a claustrophobic red glow, perfectly matching the shoulder-to-shoulder, infectious energy of the room.
This Seth Troxler live set clocks in at a steady 120.2 BPM, keeping things beautifully low-slung. The harmonic mixing leans heavily into 12A and 7A on the Camelot wheel, allowing for smooth, buttery transitions that prioritise high mid-range focus over cheap drops. If you are looking for the Seth Troxler The Lab NYC tracklist gems, the crate digger highlight has to be 'Arnold Jarvis - Take Some Time Out (Dub)'. He also throws in deep cuts like his own 'De Natte Cel' to keep the true anoraks nodding sagely by the monitors.
The journey is an absolute masterclass. The opening track is an eerie 'Unknown - Unknown' dubplate that sets a murky, mysterious tone right out of the gate. It slowly builds through soulful tech, peaking with the brilliant 'Star Gazer - The Midnight Escape', before the closing track 'SLF - Friendship' sends everyone off to the afters with a smile.
