I headed straight for mighty after my night class finished and ended up getting inside around 10:20. dj bali is throwing down a KILLER set with heavy progressive beats, unfortunately the place is pretty empty as mighty usually fills up around midnight. but if there were more than like 20 people inside, it would have been jumpin for sure... jeffrey allen takes over around 11:15 and the place starts filling up and moving finally. allen dropped a solid progressive house set, which had people pumped by the time zabiela shows up. after setting up all his appletr0n, efx, djm, etc toys zabiela goes to work. now i've seen him spin 3 times in the last year or so and one thing you can always bank on is jz putting 110% effort into his performances (the video clips speak for themselves). and each time he offers up something a little new and a little different. he played a lot of familiar tracks from recent livesets, but i suck with ids so i'm not even gonna try to put a list together two tracks i wanted to hear but didn't were depeche mode's precious (ffx remix) and imogen heap - hide & seek (r3volve's h&s remix)... oh well zabs wrapped things up a little after 3, he could have gone as long as he wanted, but i'm sure he wanted to rest up before his seattle gig today so he took the "thank you" robot effect and looped and warped it into a nice little beat which he h4xed for a couple minutes. that was pretty cool i must say. i'd be cool if someone could id some the tracks from the video clips, i have about 15 minutes worth of zabielh4x for your listening and viewing pleasure

What do you put into your live sets that has made you a dancefloor favorite for the past decade?

"I’m a dance floor favorite? Great! I would say the passion that I feel for the music I buy and the honesty with how I play it. I play the records I love not the ones that simply work. I’ve never taken the easy music option (which would make me a lot more money by the way) but chosen to push people a little. I try to draw people in a new direction slightly and expand their taste a little more than other DJ’s." - Lee Burridge

this guy is amazing, 5 years ago he was a bedroom dj, sent in a mix tape to mixmag and BAM he is superstar dj that always inovates.
