Re: [xl7] rEalm's Live Set methodology & re: music style... & Some "?"sss

2003-08-20 by erik_magrini@Baxter.com

Your music is pretty cool... I like the logical way you develop ideas and 
the samples from a comedian (which remind me of Bill Cosby on "Himself") 
on 'jello speak' 

>>>Yeah, ummm...certainly my samples never came from that record. 
Definitely not, I mean that wouldn't be right huh?  Definitely not from 
that record, even though I have it in my collection and it sounds 
amazingly similar to what I used.  Yeah, um.... sure. :) <<<<

and the guitar-like melody on last track which hits me in a similar way to 
one of U2's old songs. 

>>>Thanks, there's a different rendition of that song in my live set too, 
more info on that shortly.  I started out playing the guitar, so it's 
always nice when I can use that in one of my songs. <<<

I don't know what too call your music... Sort of electronic all the way 
through but with really varied nonelectronic influences? I don't know much 
about electronic music, so pardon if I stated the obvious...

>>>No problem, I actually take it as one of the best compliments when 
people say they can't define my music, or that I have my own style. That's 
one of the msot important things to me, and the reason why I never took 
any lessons.<<<

Any suggestions for a CHEAP & flexible effect unit for "live" use? 

>>>I really like the Korg Kaoss pad, don't have one myself, but it's a 
really cool unit for fairly cheap. <<<

I like delays, tape delay and echos the most...

>>>I like delays a lot too, by far my favorite effect category.  Mmm...Ohm 
Force OhmBoyz can keep me entertained for hours.... <<<

BTW, Anybody here using a command station with a dj cd player live? 

>>>Not yet, but I've been itching to get that new Denon CD deck really 
bad.  I use one with regular tables though, so if you have any integration 
questions, fire away. <<<
