cool man. Great to hear some people pushing it foward in live performance... Do you use drum triggers in live playing? They would be awesome to use to recreate the real punchy sounds of the dubstep electronic drums...

thanks man!
get the engineer to turn down the live kick and snare a bit so it sits better, and doesn't disturb the track, and use the track kick and snare to give it that electro oomph
but live cymbals are the things I've missed the most from electronic music
so happy to have that element back again

the difficulty is always trying to strike a balance between being as live as humanly possible, and retaining the polished mixed-down, professional dance music sound!
the key is a sound engineer who's no mushroom at the game

in my opinion it doesn´t have to have "professional dance music sound". i´d love to listen to a live dubstep-band with a ruff´n´punky sound, like the stuff DUB TRIO do for example.
but your sounds & vids are just great. looking fwd to new stuff.
big up from germany!

Yeah, we've had live drummers with Dubstep DJs... just give the drummer a pair of monitor headphones and away you go.
Great having snares that you can feel ....
