Known for his meticulous sound design and a penchant for pushing genre boundaries, David Bay’s style is a compelling fusion of deep, soulful progressive house and the hypnotic, driving energy of melodic techno. His live sets are renowned for their dynamic progression, often building from ethereal soundscapes to thunderous, peak-time euphoria.
