Dosem at Empire
Anjunadeep Explorations 2024 (Techno, House Sunrise Set)
Sunrise at Empire during Anjunadeep Explorations—the golden hour where melodic techno truly makes sense. Dosem’s set is the sound of the sky turning pink, a gently evolving, emotionally resonant journey. The vibe is one of shared, weary euphoria, a crowd moving as one liquid mass, past the point of conversation and into pure feeling.
This is deep, melodic techno with a house soul, maintaining a hypnotic 127 BPM pulse and exploring more nuanced key spaces like 8B and 2A for a melancholic, introspective feel. The mix is impeccably balanced, with a warm, rounded low-end supporting intricate mid-range melodies and atmospheric pads that seem to hang in the humid air. His selections are exquisite: the dual versions of R.A.W.’s ‘Unbe’ are a lesson in minimalistic depth, his own remix of ‘Flash’ adds a driving, emotional layer, and the inclusion of Ian Carey’s classic ‘Keep On Rising’ is a stunning, soulful left-turn.
Beginning in a fog of ambiguity with an unknown opener, he guides us through the poignant peak of HOSH & 1979’s ‘Midnight (The Hanging Tree)’, and lands us gently on the sun-drenched shores of Solee’s remix of ‘Loving You’. It’s a masterclass in sunrise narrative, and we are willingly, happily lost in it.
