so what do you think about the last night? i think Richard and Ed were brilliant. IMO Richard's set was very interesting and special. those hardcore tracks were funny:)) and Ed was as dancey as usual. the music of Ovuca was OK, but i don't really like this "laptop live performance" idea. and people were looking at him like he's doing something special, and he was just playing with LOGIC effects. i haven't met anyone from the LIST, have you been there at all?? also i couldn't check the DJ's in the other room, there was also some live act from Pussyfoot (Deep Cops?) which i've saw a little and they were playing with decks and some Nord Lead. i think the NOrd Lead wasn't connected at all... anyway i think that was quite a nice party, but Rephlex need a bigger place for Rephresh nights, there were so many people, i couldn't move.

interesting and special. those hardcore tracks were funny:)) Was it just me or was there a load of new aphex material in his set? Rich was playing about with that laptop most of the time, and only seemed to play about 10 records (inc Squarepushers Full Rinse (feat. MC Twintub), super sharp shooter, and that bogdan one about the pretty girl on the dancefloor). He also played that wav thats been going around the internet for a while, that bt customer support thing ("..AND I MEAN PHYSICALLY!!"). If you don't know what I'm on about, mail me and I'll send it to you. The stuff which sounded like new aphex stuff was mostly very hyper drum'n'bass stuff, some slightly electroish stuff, and some stuff that I can only describe as noise. Not using that term in a bad way, but it really was just noise, all distorted, white noise, with occasionally a few times where you can pick up a rhythm in there somewhere. A bit weird.

playing with LOGIC effects. I loved Ovucas set, he certainly had me jumping about. I did run around and have a peek at the sceen, but didn't see that much intersting going on, just lots of knobs and sliders. Re: that whole business of laptop sets...I'm dead into it really. OK, so it's not quite as live as having a rack of synths and stuff, but its a step up from just mixing records.

for Rephresh nights, there >were so many people, i couldn't move. I agree with that, it was very packed in there. And I hope you weren't that annoying guy next to me who screamed like a girl every 20 mins!! Argh! Oh and being the little fanboy that I am, I pounced on Ovuca and Aphex as they were leaving the dj area and said a quick hello! I also met Luke Vibert there, and had a quick chat with him. We both know Phil Earl @ Law&Auder, so I actually had something to say other than 'I think you're great!'. :) Eddie --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

maybe Richard was playing his new stuff, i don't know....if so, that was a good material! regarding OVUCA: sorry, Ed, but it is not a step up from JUST mixing records. the thing is that OVUCA has already mixed his tracks before in Logic, so he just clicked PLAY, and then he was changing effects a little, WHICH IS FUCKING STUPID!!!! IMO when you mix records you do more that JUST CLICKING PLAY!!! and i wasn't that annoying/screaming guy:)) are you going to Rehab on friday? alex --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I'm guessing that everything coming out of the laptop was either his or Ovucas. He only seemed to actually play about 10 records..

Sorry, I didn't mean to insult the art of dj-ing. I just meant that ovuca playing his stuff live from a laptop would be better than him playing his records. If the tracks are commited to vinyl then there's not much you can do with them, except maybe add fx. If you're running your stuff on a laptop though, you can fiddle with your softsynths, rearrange the track and all sorts. I didn't really get to see what Ovuca was doing with his stuff though, so he could have just been clicking play for all I know. I did see him do some fiddling, but I don't know what he was doing.
