Dave Seaman | Lexicon Avenue | Therapy Sessions

I’ve read way too many “Why Tiësto Doesn’t Want You To Vote For Him in DJMAG.com Top 100” threads over the past week and I’m seriously stunned by them. I’m sure he had only the best of intentions when he released this statement… okay… but if Tiësto really wants everyone to vote for the ‘new breed’ why doesn’t he support these artists by bringing them on the road or by backing them in a label project? I may be wrong – because I really don’t pay all that much attention to him – but everywhere he goes, isn’t it always just Tiësto?
One DJ who is making a living supporting up-and-coming artists - and who I have mad respect for as a result - is Dave Seaman. I’ve never heard of or seen this guy travel with a VDJ or a personal entourage, but I know he most always brings along a hand picked opening act. They’re often from a far off land and they’re always super appreciative of his extremely generous backing. Seaman presents the opportunity of a life time to these very deserving DJs and producers. He introduces them to the most prestigious dance floors in the world and is so sold on some of the talent, he’s created the Therapy Sessions compilation series to showcase their music alongside his own.
Therapy Sessions Volumes One and Two were ultra successful. Two Aussie genius’ - Phil K and Luke Chable respectively - created fantastic CDs alongside the Audio Therapy front man. Volume Three - released on September 26th - features Brit legends Lexicon Avenue. BeatFactor has posted the track list along with a short preview of the comp and below you can find a couple solid promos from Scott Bradford and Mark Armstrong - along with Dave Seaman’s most recent Kiss FM - that will surely give us a good idea of what to expect from the third installment of this highly acclaimed mix series.

I’m in the middle of downloading these two sets so I don’t have a review yet but I loved the set Lexicon Avenue did on Kiss 100 in October. I remember these guys from the productions they did way back but I have never heard a them as djs, I think the best djs are producers as well because they know their own music inside and out. This set is good prog but not so much in the old sense, its fresh but dark at the same time. I absolutely love the closing track! I would love to see these guys live…
