CHRISTIAN MARTIN and LENNY KISER b2b in The Lab LA
The promise of a b2b from CHRISTIAN MARTIN and LENNY KISER in The Lab LA is the promise of a proper, no-nonsense workout, and this live set delivers with the kind of functional, peak-time energy that makes you forget you’re watching a YouTube rip. The vibe is all American warehouse: stark, strobe-lit, and built for movement. This is a tech house session with serious techno teeth, evidenced by a wild BPM range from 122 up to a blistering 171, though it smartly averages around 126.7, largely anchored in the powerful key of 12A.
The energy balance is more aggressive than your average house set, with a higher mid-range presence (30%) allowing for sharper synth stabs and vocal hooks to cut through the robust low-end foundation. The mixing is energetic and direct, using quick cuts and long blends to navigate between groovy house and harder, loop-driven techno. Crate-digging highlights include the brutal, industrial funk of Sable Sheep’s ‘Lobotomize’, the driving, peak-time pressure of Victor Vera’s ‘Pressure (Daniel Sbert Remix)’, and the sheer, unadulterated chaos of Anti-Slam & W.E.A.P.O.N.’s ‘Bang (Live)’.
Throwing in Stardust’s ‘Music Sounds Better with You’ is a classic, crowd-pleasing power move. The journey kicks off with the filtered disco-house euphoria of Duke’s ‘So in Love With You’, hits a furious peak with that ‘Bang’ drop or the extended tension of the ‘Rush’ remix, and comes in for a hard, percussive landing with Alex Dolby & Santos’s ‘Raw Road (Carlo Lio Remix)’ as the closing track.
