i am interested to know if anyone else is doing some sort of hybrid live PA/DJ set and what you are using to break out of what you usually hear in the clubs without making simething so different from other sets that
1. it doesn't fit in with the evening
2. it's so different pepole hate it!

I love the idea of live because i am sick of playing pother peoples records, and even my own tracks on a CDJ... but i think there are a lot of limits as to what you can actually do to this genre before you completely root it just for the sake of being different. for example the structures of thos genre are fairly standard, so you can really loop a portion of a track for ever and play with it because the punters expect a certain format.... so do you go to playing more live instruments and keeping the structure sound?
i guess i am asking where doe sthe originality fit in?

i am really interested in peoples views... i know it's like asking how long is a piece of string, but i would like to know anyway. how long is a piece of string???
