Regal
Mixmag Lab London
Regal's Mixmag Lab London set is where trance and psytrance collide with techno precision, a high-BPM workout for those who believe the best therapy is a relentless kick drum. The vibe is intense and laser-focused, with strobes syncing to every beat in a room that feels both cavernous and personal. At an average BPM of 139.5 and centered on Camelot key 12A, this is trance-tinged techno with avg_low energy at 0.65 providing a driving foundation and avg_high at 0.19 adding psychedelic flourishes.
Mixing is linear and energetic, building tension through elongated breakdowns and sudden drops, with the constant BPM of 140 creating a hypnotic, unwavering groove. The set is short on tracks but long on journey, with Knuckleheadz's 'House Rocca' offering a breakbeat interlude that shakes things up. Robert Nickson's 'Never Again' Nitrous Oxide mix brings classic trance euphoria, while MRD's 'Superwoman' with Sticky Icky injects vocal house energy.
Trevor Reilly & David Wynne's 'Acid Drop' adds squelchy TB-303 lines, and Ma Ččka's 'Outer Core Journey' provides a deep, spacey detour. From an unknown opener, the set builds through the peak of these diverse selections, and closes on Liquid Soul's 'Hypnotic Energy' Symphonix remix, a 21-minute psytrance epic that locks us into a final, transcendental state.
