THD079 — MONDAY RECORD HIGHLIGHT: “FAMILY SET” BY LUCATI

Monday Record Highlight: “Family Set” by Lucati. Daniel and Lily unpack Lucati’s signature drums, bounce, and attitude—classic shuffle on the hats, chunky low-end, and a hook built on pattern and pocket rather than big cheesy leads. We talk about why “Family Set” is a mid-set glue record for working DJs: how to mix into it from more minimal or drum tools, ride the bounce, and then step into louder, hookier weapons. From a production standpoint, we pull out the lesson that swing and sound choice beat complexity, and why this track belongs in your ‘trust’ crate when you need to reset the floor’s focus back to groove.
