Performing Techno?
Hey guys!
I was wondering how do you perform Techno. Also how do you see what your doing with strobes, and flashing stage lights.

Assuming that by "techno" you mean dance music, there are three principle ways:
1. Getting a full band of live performers and bashing it out like any other music.
2. Lots of analogue synths. See: Chemical Brothers, Orbital.
3. Load all your pre-recorded music into something like Ableton Live and pretend you're doing something skillful.

VWallah!
Is he asking how one mixes "techno"/EDM in general? And I think the little pop up work light on the 1200s let's you see what's going on. 
im pretty sure the lights are controlled by sound or just completely random
as for techno live, djs?

I wonder what the VJ gets paid to pull off a gig like a Tiesto in Concert show? You know the DJ is getting some 5 figure lovin, but what about the VJ that's making everyone trip balls to the track selection?
Now tiesto is a differnt story...
He has his own pair of vjs... idk how much muh-la but, its gotta be good... I was watching some videos of tiesto with his vjs... they do one hell of a job, it was some of the coolest stuff...
Im also of the fan of like random vj words... like "Love" and "Life" seems cool when it goes with those types of songs..
there's some really good VJs over here, their work enhance the whole experience. 
I love it particularly when they loop images of dancing in the 1930s lol
