A short set live from the Dublin Castle in Camden at EMOM London. I was also hosting the night and introducing acts so had about 5 minutes to set up. Good thing I recently simplified down my setup to a single case. Sorry for the not so great video, as you can see I just about slammed the camera on the tripod as I was starting to play! I was testing something I've been working on - replacing my Mod…
Recording of my live set from the Factory Setting event this week. I played first up as people were arriving - nice to set the scene for people. I've always loved that feeling of walking into a club with music going and taking it all in, so I enjoyed being able to be the soundtrack to that. It was a great event, with loads of excellent sets and a really interesting and inspiring talk, demo and set…
My latest live set... this one is a little different... Not a new direction, but just an experiment with playing some pre released tracks in live versions rather than completely improvising. I'm definitely not ditching the improvising - just trying something to see what I can learn. Having been doing lots of entirely improvised sets recently I started looking into recording some of my…
Another practice set from my home studio. Was in the mood for some slow building prog and techno, slowly warming things up. Goes a bit more Underworld at the end. All improvised as usual. Actual studio is a bit of a box room at the moment after moving house recently, but I've got enough room for the live gear and that's most of what I need really! Gear used: Torso T1 Sequencer - All sequencing…
A few weeks back I did an hour long 'Midnight set' at The Night Cafe, a really cool alternative venue in Aldgate in London. This is an hour of mostly improvised modular techno and progressive house, performed from right outside the ball pit. Check out all the other Night Cafe Midnight sets over on their channel. It's a great selection of live electronic music, many of the set from friends of mine:…
I'm looking forward to playing a midnight set at the Night Cafe in London this coming Friday, so I've been practicing and captured this hour of improvisation. Please with how this one went, starts out atmospheric and progressive, and then goes back and forth a bit between more rhythm driven techno and more melody driven progressive house. And a bit of breaks right at the end. It's tempting with…
Live at Dublin Castle this week. Some more improvised grooves and melodies.
