Spikey Lee
Spikey Lee is an Amsterdam based Dutch queer artist making a name in the underground queer techno scene. He holds strong ethical values and standards to make the scene a better and safer place for people to feel free and express themselves. Although being excluded himself for years he is aware of his privileges and uses his position to make the scene more diverse and inclusive. He makes people dance on sweaty dance floors with fun, groovy and unexpected tracks.
“What I do is mainly jumping between different sounds and moods, so you don't know what's coming next. Somehow, I try to be surprising. Expect hard house, techno and groove mixed into an energetic set.”
The tracks I want to high light are:
Track 1: Karlos Mendes - Sex A Phone (Robert Armani Remix) at 00:15:19
I chose to mix this track because I want to give a new layer of energy to the previous track. This is created by the hard kick in combination with a recognizable melody.
Track 2: Trashman - The Last Fight at 00:34:01
I chose this track because previous tracks are quite hard and heavy. This track is also hard but has a rave sound which makes the atmosphere a bit lighter in the set.
Track 3: DJ Disrespect - Acid NRG at 00:41:35
The previous track falls under the fun and light category for me. To change the mood of the set, I chose this track because the intro is quite long with hard, rousing kicks. This allows your hearing to calmly prepare for a somewhat louder sound.
