Drop the Lime at Coney Island

• Words: Jennifer Marston

We fled to Coney Island on the hottest day of summer with Luca Venezia, better known as subsonic bass skull-rattler Drop the Lime. When he's not being a ham, he's strictly roots, chalking up his risk-taking production sound to his parents, his high-school gospel choir, and his native city of New York. Venezia also talks about Curses!, his Chicago house-influenced alias that's currently tearing up Paris' Institubes label, rocks the house in Tel Aviv and reveals the face-melting, star-studded line-up for his next album.
