Having dominated the scene in 2016, Pete Tong invited the duo onto his Essential Mix series for their debut on February 4.<\/p><p>Upon listening, it&#8217;s immediately easy to tell just how much care went into the mix, which according to them, was recorded live in a closed club in Basel specifically so they can get a live feel off of the sound system. The mix starts off on a slow, hypnotic note, with mellow notes of acid and rich instrumentation securing attention that will last until the end of their two hour performance.<\/p><p>While slowly increasing energy levels, the two weave in and out of ethereal melodic soundscapes and harder, chunkier sounds which take the mind right back down to a grungy dance floor. Adriatique&#8217;s\u00a0mixing is smooth the whole way through, allowing for a pleasurable and well-crafted sonic journey that sets the bar high for Essential Mixes to come.<\/p><p>Listen to the full two hour set below:<\/p><p><iframe\nsrc=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/306065808&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p><p><strong>Read More:<\/strong><\/p><p\nclass=\"item-title\"><a\ntitle=\"Maceo Plex, Solomun, Adriatique and more added to Sonus Festival\u2019s phase two lineup\" href=\"http:\/\/dancingastronaut.com\/2017\/02\/maceo-plex-solomun-adriatique-added-sonus-festivals-phase-two-lineup\/\">Maceo Plex, Solomun, Adriatique and more added to Sonus Festival\u2019s phase two lineup <\/a><\/p><p\nclass=\"item-title\"><a\ntitle=\"Of Norway feat.
