Eric Prydz American tour (pg. 9)
View this Thread in Original format

I think the point trying to be made here is that he, Eric Prydz, was starring at the mixer and cdjs most of the night rather than trying to see if the crowd was actually enjoying his performance. I had no problem in him standing there like a lummix because I personally love all the tunes he drops. For the club goer that really doesn't know what type of guy Eric Prydz is then he would probably come off as a deadbeat bedroom DJ who stares at his decks without having a crowd to play for. Beatmatching and track selection is in my opinion most important for a DJ. Crowd interaction is definately something Eric should look into.

On a side note.. I chatted with him. Seemed like a pretty good guy. I personally enjoyed his set as I don't give a rip about who he looks at but care more for the tracks he drops and how tight he is..

i think a lot of people forget he is a producer before he is a dj. unless he is claiming some sort of dj elitism that I do not know of.

Very true, but still a brilliant DJ both technically and in track selection. If you've ever heard a set of his it's like he's not human...the only problem with his mixing is that it's so good it sounds 'mechanical' at times. A little bit like Sasha's Ableton sets, but with decks.

Anyone have any tracklists from his current US tour?

Why not just look at the list of his recent productions, then? :conf:

Sorry, I saw Prydz live and I've heard plenty of his sets, and his mixing isn't THAT good.

When he's mixing between his own tunes, it's incredible, when he's mixing other tunes, it's quite good but he's not as genius as you make him out to be I don't think :toothless

i would be willing to bet money that the sets you're speeking of were all done in ableton, why would he NOT use ableton for a studio set?
