But even contrasting with Egyptian Lover's 808 and vinyl set, this just seems a bit of a lacklustre setup. I understand it can't be all Four Tet/Kareen in terms of full on live randomness, but...meh.
Completely agree, and to be honest, I'm yet to see a live set that I've enjoyed more than a DJ set.
I'd like to see a Shackleton one though.

All that melts away when the lights are down and the bass is up.
didn't realise they did a live set, what was it like?

Pinch on live percussion, keys (I think), and drums (via computer, not an actual drum kit)
Sherwood layering vocals from his mahoosive acapella collection, then real time dubbing/delays/echoes via a mixing desk

If you ever get a chance to see him do it, his sets are on another level.

I only consider it live, when the artist creates the music on the spot.
People just got confused when DJs started playing sets without cd players or turntables.
Not saying any other ways are necessarily bad or something.

I've seen groups make it too live. As in you really like their electronic music, you go to see their live show and they bring out a whole band in order to make it more "live". More often than not it sucks.
As far as the laptop and a controller thing and playing their own music, when people are performing like that it is not really DJ'ing either. Is there going to be a new "semi-live" or "not quite all the way live" category to promote?

No idea who those people are
The issue I have with Launchpads is that it comes across as a bit Guitar Hero...push the buttons in the right order at the right time to get a high score etc.
whats your opinon on someone using an sp404 as a "live" set
