Grensta’s Mix Is Minimal and Tech House Bliss
Divine Species “is a collective of like-minded individuals aimed at enhancing life through the outlet of creativity”. The California based collective is quickly making a name for themselves in the house and techno scene. Resident DJs Decoy, Slothy, Gibsun, and DarcSounds work with artists Tika Moini and Martin Leyhe to create a place for expression. As part of their project Divine Species hosts a mix session supporting more underground DJs. And Grensta is taking over the 42nd edition of Sonic Cocktails.
Grensta takes the listener through an hour of minimal and tech house relaxation. The mix starts Demuja‘s ‘Move,’ a smooth blissful tune that encourages movement “so you can grow”. As the mix progresses the tracks get deeper and more techy. Lucati‘s recently released ‘Whistling Duck‘ appears near the end. So does an impressive Ash O’Connor bootleg of Route 94‘s ‘House and Pressure‘. There are also a few tunes courtesy of Grensta himself. Double Take and his remix of Boom Baps by Codes are definitely two highlights of the mix.
