In case you weren’t aware, this Wednesday, Blisspop is teaming up with the NeedlExchange and U Street Music Hall to present Lane 8! We were lucky enough to have the San Francisco-based producer sit down and pick 5 of his top songs from his current tour. Take a listen to the tracks below and, if you already haven’t, buy tickets HERE! Don’t miss out on this one. It’s guaranteed to be a special night.
1. Lane 8 – The One ft. Patrick Baker (Klangkarussell Remix)
I’ve been opening a lot of my sets with this, it certainly makes a big impact in the best possible way. I also find that if this track goes down really well at the beginning of a set, it usually means people there are pretty familiar with my music, which is a great feeling to have as you’re shaking off the nerves of the first 10 minutes of a set!

2. Bicep – The Final Trip
Honestly I’m pretty smitten with everything Bicep puts out, it’s hard to describe their music without using cliched words like “euphoric†but their tracks really do give that special feeling that I think clubbing is all about.

3. Meramek – Feeling
Speaking of feelings, my Anjunadeep brother from another mother Meramek is, for me, one of the most under-rated producers around at the moment. His production level is super high and his style of chords and melodies is really fresh and dope.

4. Lane 8 – Nothing You Can Say ft. Lucy Stone
When Lucy and I made this tune, I never anticipated I would play it so often in a club, but people have been requesting it like crazy since I’ve been back, which makes me so happy – great tune to end the night with and everyone can have a little sing a long !

5. Recondite – Fiery
People are often a bit surprised when I play faster records or techno since it’s quite far from the music I make…for me though, the feeling is the same. This is such a euphoric track and so beautifully put together. The entire Innervisions 50 release is well worth checking out.
