thanks to all who came out - was fun meeting you guys!

awesome, good timing

really looking forward to hearing your sb set, i was at the SF show.

What's it like to tour with the booth and the brown?

Hey man I don't have any questions I just want to say you absolutely crushed it in Philly. Sounded amazing on that system. Can't wait to listen to this and rock out to those tunes again.

im too sensitive to stimulants man

cant do it . coffee will absolutely fukk me up

First off, I'd like to say HOLY SHIT if I had known your live set was this good in advance, I'd have gone to see you, Ae or no Ae, but there was no date in Michigan :(. Second, is this really just Analog Four, RYTM, and Blofeld, no computer?

Interesting.

This is not a question, but I really dig the track @20:32. Thought the way you handled it at the Austin show was outstanding.

Also, when is the next time you're playing in Dallas?

Awesome! Is that a Legofeet shirt?

how long have you been making music and what made you start?

Have you gotten your gescom invite yet?

Also loved the set at the Boston show, serious drexcyen vibes. What's your favorite drexciya?

Nothing else could happen in the music world in 2015 and I'd be proper happy with how it went.

Thanks again for the wicked show in Vancouver, and for this soundboard, awesome stuff.

I've got no questions really but thanks for everything. Keep doing your thing, can't wait to see your next live show that I can make it to!

There's a big difference in your live show vs. your recorded tunes (at least the ones I've heard). Is that going to continue or do you see yourself expanding the style of albums/etc. to incorporate more of what you displayed live? Or perhaps are you taking new tracks in a totally separate direction?

What's your Halloween costume going to be?

Omg dude, you are funny as shit. So good

what kind of non-IDM music do you enjoy? do you like jungle/dnb? do you like Source Direct at all?

What's up Cygnus? Thanks for awesome performances in both Boston and NH, also thank you for offering to take my pic with Ae in NH

How did you enjoy the tour overall? Any funny tour stories you feel like sharing?

have you ever ayy lmao'd anyone irl because you legit look like an alien in some pics. I don't mean that in a bad way, you just look like a big, friendly, furryheaded alien sometimes.

ok i accidentally hit refresh and fucked the whole multireply thing up so lets try it once more

ive been making songs longer than my brain will let me think back to

my dad had me on cakewalk for DOS . i would just be remaking songs i heard on the radio, messing around really

it looked like this -- interface was so fucking sick

SO sick

i started performing live and doing trax & albums 15 years ago

i dont know what makes me want to do it tho - its just fun and endless, the possibilities

theres sometimes a feeling of mischief when making sounds and doing trax so maybe its an attitude related thing

i like sequencers and synths and rhythm & time & sound design & electro its fun and kool

What's your Halloween costume going to be?

yeah the live stuff is higher bpm, more 'party mode'... basslines are a little bit more "literal" if that makes sense.... barely any effects used on sounds and just raw waveform funk & electro

i think in new hampshire i was pushing 150bpm, stepping into paul blackford territory , haha

i have loads of ideas for new albums . def will be more vocal stuff in the future. cant stop wont stop

the live show will just expand as i write more stuff, i have millions of ideas

for halloween i will probably just be geordie laforge as usual . i do it ever year. ppl started fronting me out tho last year tho cause i started my dredlocks and theyre like "youre whoopie goldberg not levar burton!"

i like sade,.... sun ra... ummm. man idk i listen to pretty much everything except for country music because it traumatizes me

im into vaporwave altho im not entire sure what it is

theres the vaporwave which is like macintosh plus which is completely lush but then theres the kinda more abstract stuff which is also vaporwave? i like the stuff thats like slowed down mall music and etc, im from the south and grew up hearing a lot of dirty souf shit trap and chopped/screwed shit and i love that philosophy applied to whats essentially our american cultural residue

i remember you! :) sup man

the tour was transformative . and the most fun & hilarious time ever

idk about stories, i thought of a couple of things where i was literally in severe pain from laughing but not sure how interesting they would be if u weren't there ? u know? like it might not even actually have been funny but the result of exhaustion or situational based dynamix, idk

Is it me, or do you(as in , people in general) just get sleepy when John Tejada opens his mouth? I do like some of his tunes though. So the love is there. Just stop talking, i guess..
