TECYR - Live @ Lincoln Dj Hub - 26th April 2025

A playful yet pounding opener, Take Your Time sets the tone with a punchy rolling bassline, gritty percussive textures, and chopped rap vocals sampled from Digital Underground’s Freaks of the Industry. Blending that West Coast funk with the drive of a forgotten techno classic, this one lands somewhere between nostalgia and dancefloor energy.
