In his latest contribution to Torture the Artist’s art:cast-series, Frankfurt’s David Böning delivers a masterclass in peak-time House music. Known for his deep knowledge and eclectic taste, David skillfully navigates through a diverse soundscape, starting with moody and introspective Deep House grooves. As the mix progresses, he seamlessly transitions into the infectious rhythms of Hip House and the raw energy of Garage House, creating a journey that’s as compelling as it is danceable.
David doesn’t just stop at delivering the latest beats; he takes listeners on a nostalgic ride through early House productions, infusing the mix with tracks that have a dusty, vintage allure. These selections evoke the underground spirit of the genre, bringing a sense of history and soul to the set. As the tempo rises, David introduces a punchy New York Hard House style, injecting an extra dose of adrenaline before winding down with some beloved classics that never fail to resonate.
His art:cast, the number 171 in the series, not only showcases David’s versatility as a DJ but also builds anticipation for his forthcoming EP, “Down To Join,” which is set to drop on the Rawax sub-label, Chiwax. The mix serves as a perfect teaser, reflecting the EP’s blend of timeless House elements with modern flair. Whether you’re a seasoned house head or a new listener, this mix is a journey through the layers of house music, from its roots to its current iterations, all crafted with David Böning’s signature touch.
