I saw these guys live last night, and they're absolutely amazing. It took two drummers, two vocalists, a guitarist and a bassist as well as Maxi Jazz and Sister Bliss to recreate their tracks live, but it sounded brilliant. They really took apart their tracks and rebuilt them to blow the crowd away, and the energy and atmosphere was unbelievable.
Hell, how many dance acts are there left that can put on a live show at all? Let alone one half as good as Faithless are? I don't think anyone can deny the band the credit they deserve. |

I rate them as probably the best live act in the world.
They really are farkin incredible, seen them twice and they have absolutely rocked both times. Too many live acts just play the song the same as what's on the record, these guys are a completely different entity live. And the energy they put out and ability to work the crowd..........:eek:
Never EVER one to miss, they are seriously great |

| I would only ever consider seeing them or Leftfield live. Mainly because it's truly live, they have a drummer and all and play around and re-arrange the tracks. There's real soul and effort in it. |

Delerium did a rare live performance (they tend to stick to the studio) here in Vancouver for the Tsunami Benefit Concert. I didn't go myself but I hear they used a ton of live instruments, along with Kristy Thirsk and Sarah McLachlan singing too (it helps they are all from the same city ;) ). However, that's a very rare instance of live EDM around here.
From what I hear, a personal favorite of mine, Banco de Gaia, incorporates tons of live instruments. Damn, the Brits always have the best live electronic musicians.:( |
