And nobody outside of us producers/DJs/live PA's cares. At all. One bit. The headz just wanna dance man, and hear good tunes. I'd much rather hear a guy just doing live arrangement of great music than a guy performing mediocre music with live sequencing, live drum triggers, live electric bongos, etc etc. In a certain respect, all that matters is what's coming out of those speakers, not how you're making it.

I don't have the patience to watch the vids at the moment- would rather see you play an actual gig rather than a tutorial, but hey I'll check 'em later when I'm not hungover and grumpy from last nite :wink:

Just watched the intro vid and part 5= NICE. If that Mad Professorish dub tune in the intro vid is yours (or your duo?) then PROPS. All the music in fact is really well done. And yeah I'm a dumbass for commenting before watching, sorry 'bout that.

But why are you tripping so hard on what's "live" or not? You seem like such a well-balanced intelligent guy, with great tunes. Who the f*ck cares how anyone does it...really. If I saw you play a party *I* would know you're legit, and I would tell other people about you for sure. And *you* already know you're legit. I mean, yeah man, talk about it here with your peers for sure, but don't make a big deal out of it on your promo material. Most promotors, party people, even DJs don't know/care/don't understand. They just wanna hear good music.

And that's the point in the end, on the dancefloor, where nobodys supposed to be looking at us live fools anyway b/c they're be too busy getting down and having fun!
:D

Anyway, those are kickass vids, thanx.
