FACT mix 159 is a superlative house and techno session from Deetron.
Sam Geiser has been producing and DJing as Deetron since for more than a decade, debuting way back in 1998 with the Insert Direction EP for Axodya. While others have fallen in and out of fashion, Deetron has stayed on top, thanks to his open-minded approach to new music but also his unshakeable grasp of classic dancefloor dynamics – his DJ sets, like his productions, are always generously skippy, melodic and bass-driven, which explains why his high-octane mix CD for Fuse was one of FACT’s top albums of 2008.
The tracklist for Deetron’s FACT mix speaks for itself: a ton of our favourite current producers are represented, including Patrice Scott, WAX (Shed), Basic Soul Unit, Kink and Surgeon, and there are welcome outings for Dixon’s dancefloor edit of Ame’s neo-kosmische epic ‘Fiori’ and the Motor City Drum Ensemble remix of Caribou.
