The Kern series has started in 2012 with a mix by DJ Deep, but the last mix we know of came out in 2013.
TJ Hertz has taken his time off releasing after the 2014’s “Flatland” full-length and this Kern # 3 is a highly-anticipated work which he “…planned, recorded, embellished, reworked, tweaked and chiselled away” at the mix over a period of six months, eventually ending up with “primarily a DJ mix but settling in a sweet spot between live recording and studio trickery.”
The result is a 36-track selection of music, which Hertz says he will play and love for a very long time. Sure of it, look at the tracklist:
