when Dear plays - as Dear or Audion he just zones the fuk out and barely ever looks at the crowd. He is so in the zone.


Posted by l�cid on Jun-02-2009 00:50:

i still don't understand the hype around Dear. he just doesn't do anything for me.


Posted by MeLLyMeL on Jun-02-2009 01:03:

I've seen him at the museum of natural history - what the TA's say is true. When he plays as Matthew Dear - he sucks.

When he plays as Audion which he so played like at the Resolute party and DEMF - he is fuking ridiculous.

He really plays a different type of style than what you like.


Posted by l�cid on Jun-02-2009 01:16:

i've only seen him as Matthew Dear. i didn't dislike him, i just get bombarded from all sides by people who are so blown away by him and i always wonder if there's something i'm just not getting.

Jake you're right - it's not the type of music i typically go crazy over, but i do appreciate many different flavors of house & techno.

i am a disco queen at heart though.


Posted by Zild on Jun-02-2009 01:29:

As Dear he is really eclectic sometimes not even playing a solid beat for minutes. I think he is also fairly self indulgent and experimental so he easily loses audiences. I think a lot of has to do with him having such a huge reputation with big releases across a bunch of different aliases. So people really get into it a little more than they should especially if they've never seen him before.

I can always count on him to play at least a few good songs that I enjoy and probably don't own already.

b4 WMC/DEMF I had only caught him as a Dear set at HPC in Tampa.. Three opened up for him and really showed him up when it came to playing to the crowd.. by the time Dear came on it was 2 hours of experimental music which really had no direction in my opinion..

At Sunday School, his set was insane.. Really changed what I thought about his sound.. Then after catching him with Elliott twice and then the Audion closing set I am thoroughly convinced the man is a genius, but every genius has the off days...

Anyways.. I want to upload some of my pics and vids from DEMF.. Whats the best recommendation for sites to upload to? I guess I could just upload to Myspace or Facebook but I was looking for something better..

i was digging what him and Elliot were playing when i saw them in Chicago last year... then again i was rocked off my face so i can't really trust my own opinion, and there were a LOT of technical fuck-ups that night.

My only gripe with Dear is as a DJ. As a producer and an all around performer he's solid as fuck. Great great music and a great show (Audion and Big Hands). He just can't beatmatch to save his life

I wish I would have cought him when he played at PS1 last year to see what this fuss happening here now is all about. I've always thought he was a brilliant producer ever since I got into techno two years ago. Not to mention that Fex is one of my top tech bangers of all time.


Posted by bas on Jun-02-2009 02:55:

His tag sets with Ryan Elliot are awesome, mostly because he's just playing Ryan's stuff...but honestly as a stand alone DJ Matt Dear is meh. He really can't mix that well at all. If you want to see him, try to catch him live...he's sick.


Posted by MeLLyMeL on Jun-02-2009 02:57:

I heard Big Hands sucks too.

Him as Audion is definitely a completely different fuking dj.

He also played up the whole "made in detroit" stage. it was some freaky ass shit he was playing.

Yeah I will at electric zoo, but I would love to see him spin. He probably has amazing taste in music. I would think it to be like Holden or something, really different, which I love. I don't mind the technical side of things as much. Maybe I'll just dig for one of his sets online.


Posted by bas on Jun-02-2009 02:59:

Oh yeah he has a great taste in music for sure, not super eclectic but he knows how to make you dance.
