hi !
i'm listening to "utonian automatic" by isotope 217. it's great !
i'm a tortoise fanboi and love both projects. Their music is a perfect bridge between rock, jazz and electronica. It seems as if they have a lot of fun playing and recording - which is rare and precious too. And John McEntire is a fucking amazing as to production ideas.
My question is : have you seen either of them live ? How was it ? Any great moments that you can remember ?
***********************************************
Thanks for any interesting and/or funny [BUT remember ! this is a music mb !] comments
and possible spelling correction !

Matt: I think as a band we try to just make music that we think is beautiful to try to help promote beauty � which sounds kind of stupid I guess, but on a real serious level I think that's what we're trying to do, is like just increase goodness in general.
Ralf: That doesn't sound stupid at all. It sounds very accurate.
Matt: I'm glad. Whenever I say stuff like that I feel a little goofy sometimes. (Laughs).

i saw tortoise live last month at the royal festival hall, it was fucking awesome - the best bit, umm, well it was all great, the xylophone section of djed is still very vivid in my memory - they had some really cool visuals as well.

i haven't even listened to isotope, blud, anything to recommend? tortoise did all but the last (bassy) part of djed, they were swapping instruments loads at rfh as well - they had two drumkits and two vibra/xylophones - one was electric or something, it was just a long thin panel, it looked ace.
