Guest abracadabra Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 This is exactly why I didn't go. I wasn't expecting much of a performance to begin with. Plus, The Echoplex seems too big for FlyLo and Kode9 Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/44640-kode9-flying-lotus-show/page/2/#findComment-1012649 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo Strike Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I don't know what sort of 'performance' you guys were expecting? If you want to see someone clown about on stage then go and see Shitmat or something Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/44640-kode9-flying-lotus-show/page/2/#findComment-1012658 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcock Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 (edited) people in america seem to get it real bad. i went to see kode9 at nation (well, i went to go see errol alkan and kode9 was there, with benga) and had an awesome time. also, why would you want to look at the artist? of course its going to be boring. i dont think i looked at him once.

chaosmachine Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I have a copy of a recent Kode9 + Flying Lotus show, it's the best mix I've heard this year.

pcock Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 the more i think about it, what on earth are you expecting an electronic artist to do for a performance? get pole dancers? its about the music.

Blir Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I don't get it, do you go to listen to music or watch music? I see where you're coming from though, it is fun to watch people like Otto Von Schirach, Vexkiddy or DJ Scotch Egg.. They're great fun. But personally if I'm enjoying the music then fuck it. Electronic music is pretty much renowned for being music that typically you can't make with instruments as such.. Isn't it? I mean, it's not really performing music. More cerebral. I guess.

pcock Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 can someone complaining about the actual performance being bad as opposed to the music please explain to me what would have actually made it good. im struggling to understand.

What would have made it good: a good soundsystem without significant amounts of distortion, non lame visuals(you mentioned pole dancers? well guess what? the main video loop during the show had a pole dancer as the focus), SOMETHING to set it apart from other shows. My gf went with me and she was very underwhelmed by the show. Different shows can use different things. Like somebody said above, Otto Von Schirach is always entertaining to watch and he doesn't use any props.

pcock Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 well if its a shit soundsystem then fair enough but thats about the music i would have said. i havent seen a show with visuals since venetian snares 2 years ago.

At Bloc he just had two weird dancers and a bandana. It was fucking awesome, I highfived him, slapped his wrist and punctured about five holes in my hand from his spiked wristband.

Guest Deep Fried Everything Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 except for a venue having a shitty sound rig, i don't know how it would be possible to not have fun at this show (kode9 specifically)... he played here last night in chicago and it was off the hook! so so good. i'd say if the sound was good then you probably just don't like his taste in tunes, in which case head on over to the complain thread and let it allllll ouuuuuuuuutttttttt Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/44640-kode9-flying-lotus-show/page/2/#findComment-1014012 Share on other sites More sharing options...
