Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
that's what you get for going to see machinedrum
Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
He's here with om unit so I have to go lol
Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
I really like a lot of Machinedrums music, but as far as I know, he doesn't really DJ traditionally with decks, he uses an iPad and gadgets, is that what a live set is? Or will there be people there with actual instruments (ew!)?

Just seen it announced the machinedrum set im going to in march is a live set, honestly disappointing imo
I totally agree.. live sets r sooo boooriiing much rather listen to some top selekshans

Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
This is a really good live set
Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
Yes. In my opinion not that interesting musically, but he basically takes
his studio methods on the road which is really cool. New stuff every year too.

people go nuts for em too, most of em are so fucking boring
lone did a live set here, had every annoying synth stab loop going for like 15 minutes at a time and the venue was more packed than ive ever seen it. and then it promptly cleared 10 minutes into tessela's (brilliant) dj set

Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
yea ive yet to see one that i prefer over a dj set
especially when its a big name who should have exclusive shit to spin, its almost selfish to do a live set (that sounds like a really dickheaded thing to say but something like that yea)

Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
true that. i don't think i've ever seen a live set but from what i've seen on videos DJ sets look much more entertaining but ofc there will be some exceptions.

Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
d'jo from tekk djz does a cool live dj thing where he uses cues & ableton to fuck around w the tunes hes playing
Its pretty cool, he seems to keep it in moderation
but its still totally focused on playing tracks, so its much more like a dj than a "live" set tbf

Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
Shackleton is unbelievable live, was blown away and fits his style perfectly.
Yeah but to me it still felt like another DJ set with effects but still good.DrGatineau wrote:doesn't ishan have a live set thing going? looked pretty good (at least a 2 min video did)

Re: Post your unpopular opinions.
i need to see more, definitely shackleton and livity
but there's something about dj live sets that's like hip hop with a live band for me, just immediately the anti boner
