I've caught various incarnations of Snares over the years (including a rare performance of the Venetian Snares Drum & Bass Ensemble - featuring Not Half and Greg [of Greg Hates Car Culture fame - yes, it is an actual person])... What he does with CDJ decks must be seen to be believed, and it's truly disturbing to see the way he can meld complex time signatures together and rip apart tracks to build something that is sometimes noisier, sometimes more chaotic, sometimes more beautiful, but always live. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
