WTF are you taking about?
I have seen them PLENTY of times live and have NEVER seen them fake anything.
#1 - There songs are pre-selected...they already have the songs mixed together and they just play the set as they recorded it.
#2 - Then Erez plays extra synth melodies on his Keyboard while Amit plays with effects on his mixer.
It's not a complicated live show at all, but playing live electronica has it's downsides. Erez and Amit have recently stated that they are tired of doing live sets the way they have been, they need more involvement. So they are working on some more ideas on making their live shows a bit more live, they might take a guitarist on the road and some other things like that.
However they are planning a rock album (non-psy) which is still up in the air but it's an idea they are definetly juggling. If this is the case they will be able to have full on live shows. |
watch them from above....
at avalon i was on the balcony.....the mixer had one channel up.....conveniently also a cdj was playing continuously..
duvdev was up bouncing up and down twekaing knobs on channels which the faders were down...
erez was faking on a clavia nord lead 3.....playing keys that didn't go at all with the notes that were being heard through the speakers....
they were faking it. Trust me I know what i'm talking about.
however, the dj sset was very good, but i was already a bit turned off by the faking....
as you said in point one....THEY PLAY A PREMIXED CD.!!!! THAT'S BULLSHIT THAT'S NOT LIVE PA THAT'S PLAYING A F@CKING CD......why go out and see them play a cd when you do it at your house?
Escape from samsaa a nyc based psy trance production/promotion company, refused to book certain acts a few years ago (including im) b/c they had to rent, set up all thsie xtra gear, pay them all this money, book them at nice hotels.......and they faked it. sad.
Astral projection.....as much as their live sets blow actually try to mix tracks together and do some live improv...
