Hey all,
My name is Richard, and I produce music (mostly tripstep style in ableton). I have come to the point where i have a lot of material, and would like to get out, and start performing it.. I have looked a few options, and am looking for a way to perform my work - and make it sound awesome... My issue is - with most of my free time, I need to spend it creating material. For that reason, I just don't have the time to learn how to be an awesome dj... I also do not want to get up on stage, and just hit "play". I found one easy solution for me is to use ableton live - and have it interface to my APC40... using dj-templates ableton takes care of the beatmatching, etc... Any of you guys do that? Also, what do most producers do w/ their original material? Should I be simply beatmatching, adding some sparkling effects here and there... or should I be mashing 2 songs together? mainly, I am looking for any tips on how to perform my stuff... Right now, I think I could use any tips in terms of performing - big time...
Thanks guys,
and PS: My stuff is here... oh, and if any of you DJ's like it, let me know, I can get you high quality wavs as well...
