409 – Symmetry

Last month the London based Symmetry dropped the third edition of his Night Rhythms series via Bad Life. Now following on from the the up-and-coming producer exclusively streaming the 2-track release with us we we’ve brought him back to helm the latest edition of our podcast. Known for his eclectic techno tastes, Davies takes a trip into acid house territory, with a dance floor dominating mix, that pay homage to the genre whilst bringing in influences of techno, tech house and jack. Gorgeously galactic beats are aplenty as Davies has delivered cure for seasonal affective disorder with his distinctly euphoric sounds, broken apart by stomping rhythms. Play this one loud!

Sum up this podcast in 10 words…

Here is some music mixed together for your listening pleasure.

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

Well it’s all some of my favourite tracks at the moment so it will change every time I hear it. But today I’ll say my remix of Klaxons which tails off the mix.

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?

Me enjoying myself. That and the Clark interview edit and Jones phone call haha.

What’s the best gig you’ve played recently?

I played some shows in Japan this year which were amazing. It’s hard to remember in too much detail, but not having slept for nearly 30 hours and walking through Tokyo after a show at Club Asia as the sun comes up is a bit of a weird experience. It’s a crazy city.

What have you got coming up?

Working on new music and experimenting. I might even get back to building some new hardware which I haven’t done in in a while. Then putting some music out including a new remix of DJ Hell X Mixhell. I have quite a few original songs laying about as well which should be out soon.

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?

Question everything and don’t take anything too seriously.
