This has been my weapon of choice recently. Nice long intro to calm you into the set and get settled. Then heavy as fook!!!

So many factors that come into play for what to open with, but for when I was playing a peak time set for a full room; using this to open is my favorite to date...



The buildup is perfect, but the actual drop is a little meh, so that's when you slam mix this puppy in when it drops



After that, the room was at my mercy and it was fucking ON :D

Loefah opened with A Milli there one time, pulled up after a minute, just long enough to get everyone's attention :)

Marionette reminds me of this, another top tune if you're needing a piss:


I used to start with the Weatherall remix of Leftfields Open Up a lot. About 135 bpm half step for most of it, rides out on 4/4 after the breakdown.
