James Zabiela-Live @ Love Festival (2012-08-03)

We bring you a great mix from James Zabiela recorded live at the Love Fest in Vrnjačka Banja, Serbia. For those who are unfamiliar, Zabiela is an accomplished veteran in the game and has enjoyed considerable underground success since the early 2000’s.  His style has evolved from a mix between House and Breaks to a more Tech House sound.  This particular mix features effortless weaving between thumping Tech House and some funky Deep House sounds towards the end. Zabiela still spins plenty of breakbeats in his sets and is also a brilliant turntablist. Many of his shows are enhanced by impressive live scratching and a forward-thinking digital setup using a combination of interesting controllers,  iPads, CDJ 2000s and Ableton.  If you have a chance to see James Zabiela at a local club or festival, he is definitely worth the detour. Enjoy!

Also, big ups to any reader who can ID the track that begins at about 31 mins. into the mix. It bangs, and I want it.
