I saw him play upstairs at The Garage in London last year, and was actually quite disappointed - he had his laptop and a synth, so most of the backing was pre-prograamed and he would play live melody over the top. The thing is, live, the beats sounded weak and feeble, and the synth melodies went a little too Jean-Michel Jarre which once i had that thought in my head, was sort of hard to overlook. i wouldnt make much of an effort to go see him again, which i feel bad about saying as i really like his albums, and also know how hard it can be to transform an electronic composition into an interesting/entertaining live show. my 2 pence thor --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
