Laurent Garnier

I had no idea that Laurent Garnier (aka. Choice) had been DJing since the 80s. His style spans over so many genres but sits under the umbrella of Techno. Over the years, he’s been referred to as the French DJ, and he’s definitely lived up to that title through his record releases, and his incredible performances.
The atmosphere in the club was incredible with everyone pumped for the set. I’ve seen multiple DJs over the years, and hands down, Garnier was by far the best, simply out of this world. The music began reasonably slowly, as Garnier put his hands up, began clapping, encouraging everyone to dance along, the heavy bass resonating through each and every audience member. The vibe was great, and the way he built up a huge crescendo throughout the performance, and surprised us with where the drops came in the middle of the tracks.
Throughout the show, he was interacting with the audience, removing his headphones and shouting out and getting people to sing along and dance at his booth. The show was over 2 hours long, and the energy didn’t drop once throughout the show. He played through loads of his mix tapes, as well as the album, and put some new mixes in there which everyone seemed to love dancing to – great beats and tunes!

J'ai acheté son premier CD en 1997 et d'autres par la suite, j'ai beaucoup visionné de set sur YouTube(plus d'une centaine de fois pour certain) pas mal de playlists télécharger, regarder des reportages et interview, lu son livre et écouter son émission "It is what it is" qui est trés enrichissante.

Dernièrement je suis allé à Maastricht le 29/08 "COD3qr" et le 03/10 à Madrid "The Bassment" en compagnie de mon fils de 20 ans les deux soirées étaient d'un top niveau.

Je n'ai qu'une seul chose à dire: Monsieur Garnier est bien plus qu'une référence, la qualité de ses morceaux et l'énergie qu'il envoie lorsqu'il mixe est une véritable bouffer d'oxygène, je suis impatient de connaître le calendrier 2026.

Perso sa musique est une une drogue et je peux en absorder sans limite.

Merci Laurent Garnier et à l'aube de tes 60 balais tu assures grave et tu vas encore assurer pendant très longtemps.
