But it's obvious you just want to be a dick towards people with differing opinions.
This happens every day here, unfortunately.
I also saw one of BT's laptop symphonys down here about a year ago or so. It was awesome.

I have really enjoyed his productions at times, but he is easily the worst live performer I have ever seen (no exaggeration).
His "laptop symphony" is little more than him playing clips and loops of his tracks and poorly using effects over them - I have never seen such a pathetic attempt at a live show, well, except for this guy:
Biggest "ugh"-feeling since that Second Sun video.

Don't worry dude... he was taking a jab at AustralianGQ for the sake of taking a jab at AustralianGQ.
Oh.. and spot on summary of BT as well.
Didn't Simply Being Loved have some number of manual (read: non VST) edits in the thousands? Crazy stuff.

Im laughing my asshole off everytime i see that man with the yellow t-shirt raving!

that review explained exactly how i feel about BT's music, especially TBU. its not creative or interesting enough for me. if you want non danceable dreamy background music, check out Bitcrush, his epilogue in waves album (2008). or for a more rock version check out a group called "ride" their album "Nowhere".
edit: oh and the bladerunner soundtrack, in 2000 they released the "definitive edition" which is 3 discs long instead of 1, its endless background bliss. very sexy music too.

I don't think anyone has ever considered him an even capable DJ/live performer.
