Wrapping up our Viva Tour live blog coverage is the man himself, Steve Lawler, who reveals exclusively to Beatportal five tracks that have dominated his club sets during this mammoth North American tour.

“Throughout the whole tour there have been some tracks that I’ve played during every set and they represent the sound that I play, taken from different times of the night,” says Steve.

Here are the big five tracks of the Viva tour. Get set.

1. Nyra ‘Tongue’ (Breakout Audio)

Get Nyra ‘Tongue’ (Beatport)

The first big track of the tour is Nyra ‘Tongue’, two lads from Manchester.

I’ve just licensed them to do a remix of a Livio & Roby track on Viva Music. And this has been huge.

I’ve been playing it for months in Ibiza and it’s one of those tracks that stays in your set for quite a while.

2. Dave Aju ‘Crazy Place’ (Luciano Remix)

Get Dave Aju ‘Crazy Place’ (Luciano Remix) (Beatport)

The second track is a Luciano remix of Dave Aju ‘Crazy Place’ on Circus Company.

This is typical Luciano, very drum based, almost Latin in the rhythm.

It’s very intricate and clever in the programming and it’s one of those tracks that when I play out, it sounds so much bigger on the floor than when you listen to it in the studio.

3. Barem ‘Seeee’ (Minus)

Get Barem ‘Seeee’ (Beatport)

The new track ‘Seeee’ by Barem on Minus has a kind of tribal rhythm to it, which is not what you’d expect from Minus.

It’s been absolutely massive during my sets.

4. Dubfire & Oliver Huntemann ‘Dios’

Get Dubfire & Oliver Huntemann ‘Dios’

The new Dubfire and Oliver Huntemann has been huge all summer for me and it’s amonster record. It kind of changes halfway through into another record which is really cool.

5. Steve Lawler ‘Kalimba’ (R&S)

Get Steve Lawler ‘Kalimba’

The last track is a bit of self promotion. My track ‘Kalimba’ coming out on R&S has been a key part of my sets all tour.

I’ve played it during every set and it’s one of those crossover records that every one is supporting, from John Digweed to Ricardo Villalobos.

I recorded it in April this year, and it’s coming out in November. It’s got a lot of drums, and almost tribal based.

I guess it’s a big pumping house music record.
