My choice for a laptop DJ performance is one of my favourite DJ’s- Dazegxd’s- set at Wazeima in February 2024. Even though the set isn’t incredibly experimental in any way, his blending of genres is flawless and the set has an incredibly high energy. I was surprised when I saw this set as I was familiar with Dazegxd as a jersey club / house artist on Spotify / Soundcloud, but his sets incorporate original jungle and techno tracks, as well as mixes of rap songs.
Underneath is a video of when I saw him live in February this year, and the energy was some of the best I’ve ever seen. I find it hard to articulate the technical side of what I enjoyed about dj sets as it’s not a medium I’ve ever deeply explored, but seeing him resonated a lot with me and came to mind when set this task.
