ive always toyed with this idea...
what would your guys reactions be to this...
say i make an album... and you really like it. IDM of course...
now what if you go to see me live... and ive got a full band... playing it on live instruments
ie. real drums, and v drums, and keyboard players, and bass players etc etc etc... who ever is needed...
needless to say... it would sound much different from the original... because there would be much more acoustic elements...
would this piss you guys off?
i like the idea personaly... a way to have a diverse musical outlet...

im really considering it...
for several reasons...
1. i think it would be cool 2. i dont want to be one guy on stage twiddling knobs. 3. i want to play live... because a. it allows for more people to be exposed to my music, and b. it is a good source of income... artists make the majority of thier money from playing...

its kind of like... the cd version is the porduced... detailed and thoughtout product...
and the live renditions... would allow for variation, and new takes on the music...
i mean... even with music made by real musicians... the cd always sounds different from the live concerts... so im taking this idea and putting it to the extreme

im just afraid of hardcore IDM fans being pissed. wanting to hear the music just like on the cd... have the electronic messed up drum sounds... and not a drum kit playing instead...

Dozier...u live in the albany area too...cool :)
I've been tinkering with the idea of performing IDM stuff with a band. I play guitar/bass and piano/synths...My set list would include:
Come To Daddy-afx (Deathmetalish sound) Flim-afx acoustic guitar/digi drums 5 Iambic Poetry-squarepusher-acoustic/electric...just live version of orig.
kid for today-boc (organ, guitar w/w efx Ruhbarb-afx (guitars)
i'm not really sure i'd last all that long on stage...i can only play after i've been hit in the head with about 3 bottles.

Zeus: I think that would be amazingly cool. Hardcore-IDM fans would probably be pissed but people with open minds who really respect you as a musician would (should?) appreciate what you're trying to do.
BTW, when the hell did you become a wizard? I've been here longer than you!

you'd half to be really excellent players.
if anything fucked, especially while improving with grooves and such, it would go sour.

Funny that this topic arises Zeus...
My band and I are making some great electronic music. Its not exactly IDM but its not anything else either.
But since there are 3 of us (we might get a bass player for live shows) we will just have Me (drums), guitar, synth, and possibly bass. I'd have to learn how to play all these cool beats that I came up with on a drum machine and try to play them live. Anything thats impossible for me (or any of us) to play acustically will just be played through our synth guy.
I'm really looking forward to doing this: as not many bands do this type of thing.
