My fav set of the weekend. He blew my fucking mind with this set!
The flow of his set was perfect. Exactly what we needed to close the fest...
Agreed. We were in the pit most of day 1 but we we're so tired day 2 we watched from the lawn. It was just what we needed and was soooo chill and amazing!
It was so good. Just wish it was longer!
So this is a pretty cool thing that he does. That vocal is just an acapella and he mixes it in over whatever particular track he chooses in that set. Last year at Anjunadeep Open Air London he kept it looped while he transitioned between two tracks. I love it.
This is an old Underground Resistance vocal. First heard it here live and not surprised Otto found use of it too. https://twitter.com/i/status/869242532135305216
There will come a time in your life when you will ask yourself a series of questions: Am I happy with who I am? Am I happy with the people around me? Am I happy with what I'm doing? Am I happy with the way my life is going? Do I have a life or am I just living? Do not let these questions restrain or trouble you, just point yourself in the direction of your dreams. Find your strengh in the sound, and make your transition.
When this song came on towards the end of the last day I just had to stand there and appreciate the beauty of it all. I spent the weekend surrounded by the best people on the planet, listening to music that truly moves me, at a venue that took my breath away. This was the song that brought me to tears. I stood there recording this video while thinking about how much this whole weekend filled my soul. @anjunadeep and @yottomusic thank you for an unforgettable day 2! I can’t wait to go back to the gorge again in 2021 for round 2!
Both the set and song were perfect. Sent me to another level.
I do want to give a little credit to Joris Voorn, who I believe Yotto got the idea from. Joris Voorn has remixed Walls, the song, and has definitely played the Underground Resistance acapella over it. I think I remember Yotto crediting Voorn when he began messing with the vocal. The combo is absolutely fantastic.
I think Yotto also played the vocal in his day one set for ABGT250 too. One of those moments when you can look around and realize you are happy to be where you are with the people you're with.
