Lea Bertucci
Like many people, for most of the pandemic I’ve been having a hard time keeping up with all the DJ live streams that kept accumulating on my tab bar. I think most of us have developed a love-hate relationship with this format and accepted it as a necessary evil that keeps the scene afloat for the time being. But in most cases, the experience of watching a person mixing in his or her own bedroom with some plants and colourful LED lights in the background wasn’t really that rewarding, no matter the selection. At one point, I just gave up and deleted most of the links I’ve been keeping for months, opting for the classic radio show and DJ mix format instead.
