MIX: Jerome Hill – Live at Suicide Circus, Berlin 23/03/2012
Whilst many DJs can lay claim to playing a ‘banging’ set, dropping their bass heavy trusted dancefloor bombs and hold the session together with some slapdash mixing; maybe a few of them will even use some EQ and the crossfader, few, in fact just one, can claim to be Jerome Hill.
