DVS1, Main Room
American selector DVS1 rifles through the hardest set of the night, by some distance. His background as a warehouse rave promoter in the Midwest powers through to the fore, with weighty, industrial beats charging relentlessly across his 90-minute stint in the Main Room. He manages to play tough while still captivating the crowd, with forays into spooky, whirring and reverberating techno.
The room’s immersive décor adds to the experience. Glowing orbs hang from the ceiling and thin lasers shoot across the breadth of the room like a menacing grid guarding against a bank heist. Yet despite the high production levels, DVS1 himself is the most compelling sight. He contorts and convulses behind the decks, arms flying off the mixer with every twist and knees bouncing, torso jerking with the jagged rhythm of a perilous printer jam throughout, pausing only to soak up the sweat pouring down his face with a towel.
