DJ Love might be a newcomer, but there's no guessing that from the way he plays. The London-based new boy has already perfected the art of layering his hard grooves with euphoric energy, both in the booth and in the studio. His tunes on Beardman, Pretty Weird and Wavelengths have been supported by the likes of Interplanetary Criminals and Mark Broom, who, he admits, is a large part of the reasons he plays the sounds he does.
Ahead of a first big Australian tour, we speak to the fast-rising star about finding balance when playing fast, how he challenges himself with his Rinse FM show and what he wanted to achieve with this week's mix. It's a great snapshot of where he's at and the sort of selection that will power you through to the weekend in no time.
