Tomorrowland Belgium 2017
Tommy Trash
Tommy Trash’s Tomorrowland Belgium 2017 set is a time capsule of mid-2010s electro house, when drops were bigger, melodies were cheesier, and we all pretended not to love it. The mainstage is a temple of excess, with pyrotechnics competing with the setting sun and a crowd ready to shout every lyric back. Averaging 128.6 BPM, this is electro house with a progressive edge, centered in the key of 12A and shifting to 3B and 8A for dynamic range.
The energy balance (avg low 0.61, mid 0.24, high 0.15) reveals a bass-heavy, driving sound that builds through layered synths and vocal hooks, with highs reserved for explosive peaks. Harmonic progression is straightforward but effective, using key changes to enhance the anthemic quality, while the mixing is smooth and energetic, perfect for mainstage consumption. Crate gems include 'The Return - New Day' for its uplifting vibe, and 'Tommy Trash - Truffle Pig' as a gritty, bass-driven highlight.
'deadmau5/Stevie Appleton - Science' offers a melodic respite, while 'Shapov - Everybody' brings pure, unadulterated big room joy. The set opens with the emotional 'Flume - Never Be Like You,' peaks with the relentless energy of 'Truffle Pig,' and closes with the euphoric 'Calvin Harris - How Deep Is Your Love (Calvin Harris & R3hab Remix),' sending us off into the Belgian night with hearts full and feet sore.
