Los Angeles electronic label Feel So Real has not mounted an all-out takeover of the city’s dance club underbelly, but I’d tag a “yet” onto that statement for the time being. When it’s 2 a.m. and venturing down to Skid Row seems like a good idea, chances are you can stumble into a Feel So Real soiree to dance yourself clean.
Launched by a Sam Jones, also known as Techno Sam, Feel So Real is mostly known for uniting Benedek and Rare Times as Cool World and for Sam’s Sammy Goes Deep mix series. A traditionalist at heart, Techno Sam’s mixes are curated live on dual Technics 1200s, blending his selector’s thumb for the deepest of cuts and remixes into a symbiotic journey through the left side of Sam’s DJ brain. When I asked Sam to comment on the nature of Sammy Goes Deep Vol.4, he simply replied, “heady vibes.” Clocking in a 81 minutes, Vol.4’s heady state of being will lock you down in mind and body for the duration of the evening and quite possibly until the peak of day break.
