The crew behind High+Tight have been staples within Seattle's electronic music community for well over a decade, all heavily involved within Decibel Festival during its heydays, and currently spearheading some of the city's best underground parties that attract highly-touted national and international headlining DJs. Revolving around the sharp ears and deep knowledge of Carlos Ruiz (aka Carlos R), Cody Morrison, and Joel Pryde, High+Tight's exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World features hand-picked selections from all three members. Sequenced to reflect three distinct phases of an after-hours dancefloor odyssey, kicking off with early-in-the-night heaters (picked by Cody), leading to deep middle-of-the-night jams (picked by Carlos R), and wrapping up with early-in-the-morning "sunrise" grooves (picked by Joel), High+Tight's expansive mix is a body-moving journey packed with top-shelf underground house and techno jams, and Carlos R showcasing his seamless mixing skills.
