Happy #danceweekend and #technofriday! Relatively new techno coming at you from Jay Lumen off the label Footprints. Never caught a set from Jay, but it's one of the last guys that I'm dying to see. I feel like I've already seen a lot of artists that I've been dying to see. Maybe it means I'm not discovering enough new people

I like the retro quality of this track! Got a little acid in the buildup resting on top of an ominous bass/drum combo. that acid influence takes you back a decade or more. Sprinkled in are some properly-timed claps(like in all excellent techno) and we got ourselves

Jay Lumen - Asteroid

The second song is an intoxicatingly dark rolling groove by Maceo Plex & Swayzak which was released on Maceo's Tessaract EP under Ellum Audio in 2017. You really need good headphones or speakers to get the full effects of the panning. Takes you on a dark, spooky trip.

oooooof selection is on point! Jay Lumen's claps are the most tasteful <3, and Maceo Plex is just a wizard. Great share. Happy #danceweekend

Thank you! I haven't caught a set of either guy that needs to change asap!

kinda funny, deadmau5 played some techno for Decadence last year, a NYE festival, and dropped both Jay Lumen and Maceo back to back lol and my buddy got some love from dancing astronaut for his appreciation ha https://dancingastronaut.com/2017/01/deadmau5-opens-marshmello-plays-maceo-plex-gets-flamed-boring-set/

HAHAHAHAH they said the set was 75 minutes of bullshit. Ah yes. The main stage was once a haven of litness if you were 18-20. They'll be down in the techno caves when they get older.

Dang, did your friend get his tweet published by DA? it won't load the tweets, damn.

Thanks for your article! 😎
