Sónar Festival, The Sounds of DJ Tennis

Ahead of one the parties of the season, Life & Death party during the Sonar festival in Barcelona, L&D head honcho, DJ Tennis made this special mix. A few words about the mix from the man himself: "This mix is leaning towards being a psychedelic experience rather than a pure dance mix. I believe a selection should not always be forged to make people dance but to create an emotional experience. I decided to blend experimental sounds adding trippy elements with a surgical work of cut and paste and mashing up elements using psychedelics (mushrooms 🍄) for pure creative freedom. Trying to enjoy the process in the first place without thinking about the destination."
