he played his tracks on 2 turntables, 2 cdj cd mixers and a MPC sampler, which he played a lot of beats and sounds off of tapping the pads live. he played the melody to 'organ donor' off the mpc, tapping pads and generally just tearing shit up. seeing him scratch cd's was totally off the hook...i didn't think it was possible to get such good results out of cdj's. the visuals were amazing-he had 3 rear projection screens showing freaked-out films. very impressive. and there was also a camera mounted above him that was mixed in with the films. the camera would zoom in on his hands so you cound see EXACTLY what he was doing at all times. and he was very busy. totally impressive. _________________________ omz http://www.hotweird.com/loaf --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
