Will he play techno ala drumcode type of stuff in his set? |
If you are referring to his recent slot at Escape Wonderland, that was a sham and is a shameful way to experience a Digweed set (the sound was absolutely horrible there). You have to see this man in a club setting late-night, which you will tonight. He will probably play some Drumcode style techno tracks, considering the recent Bedrock releases from Harvey McKay & Carlo Lio - very Drumcodesque style. But just trust that whatever he plays...it'll be good.
Agreed the first hour or so might be a little slow, head-bobbing/swaying material (not the most conducive music if you are extremely drunk...or maybe it is?) but you'll quickly find yourself getting lost in his track selections, effects and most importantly his epic transitions. No other dude (IMO) comes close to piecing together a meaningful set that spans everything from building progressive house to banging techno to old school. Prepare for an awesome trip and expect to leave the club with the sun rising while questioning the meaning of life.
Obviously I'm a bit of a Diggers fanboy here so my opinions are very biased, but this guy has never let me down during an extended club set, especially the past few gigs at Exchange. Hopefully the drunk NYE crowd thins out quickly after he goes on.
