name and shame! :D i'm with Son Kite... FuckFakeLiveActs.

to me it's live if

a) you have to rehearse

and

b) you can fuck up audibly

with an additional

c) you're not so breathtakingly arrogant as to play shit that isn't plugged in

Oh dear 8O

Shame... and I was just about to get into these guys (been out of the loop you see). Imagine the conversation:
Justice Guy 1: Okay, so you're saying we have to click the Assign button, click every one of the knobs we use in this song, then wiggle a controller on this thing, click the Assign Button again, and then somehow save this as a preset on the MPD?

Justice Guy 2: Maybe there's another way...

Justice Guy 1: Yeah, listen how good are you at panting?

can I be devil's advocate and say that look on his face is "what ze fuck is going on man, the knobs aren't working.... but I'm too goddam stoned/jetlagged/ketamined to do a goddam thing about it...oh well, we do without filter sweeps tonight, eh?"

edit - I click on Ilia's link and realise just how unoriginal my fake french accented english imaginary response really is! :lol:

Forge, I agree. It's a perfectly reasonable explanation, and I feel a bit foolish for my post.

It's a sore point with me - there certainly are more than enough dead acts out there.

Gaspard, next time: plus le Bande du Gaffer! :D

if that's the case, then apologies to Justice.

i guess it's indicative of the state of the live electronica scene that our first instinct is to suspect foul play :(

as an addendum - Colin OOOD has a nord modular patch called the 'toothbreaker' which he loads whenever some punter suspects he's not playing live and bashes a few keys. it's like... a mega-synced, mega-FMd wall of distorto-noise at 1,000,000dB :D
