i love luck vibert's stuff in the variety of monikers that he goes under
- but i have to say that i was a little under impressed w/ the live
performance last night. i've seen squarepusher b4, and went mostly to
see mr. luke, so i'm not hating, just wish there was more presence and
mash edits from his sources. i think it has something to do with having
to follow (or precede as was the case last night) squarepusher, who
truly fucking rips it up, and then drops a measure or two so you knew
what track it used to be :)
and i totally agree on the how amazingly well rounded his music and
mixes are - a lot of good heart vibes on the dance floor when it was on,
but it also felt like a black'spoitation film here and there ;)
word to the wise for anyone going to the mezzanine for shows in the
future - if somebody comes shoving, watch your back - they may be
friends of the door guys....
