Giorgio Moroder - as bad as Paris Hilton?
Moroder doing a DJ Set, have not listened to it yet but do you think that this is any different to Paris Hilton ‘jumping on the band wagon’?
Im looking forward to listening to it, and especially his mixing and track selection.
I’ve got mixed feelings about this one… he’s clearly got an actual DJ next to him doing some of the work, BUT he’s playing stuff live (admittedly just a once-a-bar hi-hat/crash in this video) on a Launchpad or something similar, so I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. Certainly does seem to be a bit of a gimmick though.
how exactly is this anything like paris hilton?
giorgio is a legend of a musician who is playing his own tracks. compare it to skrillex or deadmau5 maybe since that’s sort of what’s going on.
besides give the guy a break he’s almost 80, you think he understands these fancy new button pushing music making computers?
The set was pretty freaking good if you ask me
he didn’t even play Jack by Breach. Wanker.
If the man wanted to DJ im sure he would have done it before he was 80. It smacks of paypacket djing.
Dude are you serious?? listen to it. It’s literally the best music I’ve heard in years. It’s increadible
At least his arms aren’t constantly in the air showing gun signs and there isn’t no flanger!! Speaking his name in the same sentence as Hilton is a joke
That’s Hardwell you’re thinking of 
Have u actually seen the vid of her ‘playing’?
Haha yeah, it’s pretty hilarious. The next set she did was better, and at least she was actually playing live!
Wow
you know whats sucks? is that you are talking shit without even listening to it at all. Who cares if it is bandwagon or not, if its amazing shouldn’t that be enough?
To be honest, collaborating with Daft Punk, then watching their live sets, you’re going to want to DJ.
I am ludite when it comes to computers does anyone know if there is a legal download for this somewhere rather than just streaming.
Ummm…
I’d primarily like to laud you for asking a very honest question (because you’d just like to know what the big deal with an old man behind a DJ booth in probably the most amazing nightclub in NYC doing with a bit of help)…
Here’s the big deal (and if it wasn’t for that old man, we wouldn’t be dancing)…
A: Giorgio Moroder is a freaking god! (He pretty much spells it out in his song Giorgio by Giorgio on Daft Punk’s new Album) He redefined (along with Cerrone and multitudes of others) a different genre of music back in the day… some have classified it as Ital-Disco- yet once upon a time, the entire world were enthralled with a new kind of sound Internationally… that’s where Niles Rodgers (producing credits on Random Access Memories- super producer of so many genres of music- just Google him) came into play. Think about how ‘new music genres’ become popular and scale what we know decreased by a billion times…
B: In that aforementioned song, Mr. Moroder stated that he didn’t know and didn’t care about technological limitations in song theories… he just wanted to be free… At the moment, we are all trying to physically quantize an aural feeling (mostly to our peers-)…
C: Musical technology has come so far in such a short span of time that it is difficult for us, right now, to keep up with whatever computer programs (be it music production, DJ mixing, actual mixers, monitors, the computers that we run them on, headphones, and turntable needle styluses) from year to year… Could you imagine a master craftsman, who at one time, was very instrumental in changing the entire world’s scope of living life via music by simply listening to and believing his heart?
D: The mere fact that his appearance at Output (which I sadly missed) was, I believe, his personal tribute to us- the kids… I feel as if he wanted to see the legacy that he left… and hopefully aren’t squandering.
E: Also, coming from the time that people like Cerrone, Chic (which Niles Rodgers was a part of), and Bohannon are still inspiring those in the recent, and so called nu-disco eras… respect…
What part of that was his own music? He triggered a hat and a vocal sample on the launchpad… they played 2 1/2 songs… with standard transitions. People are easily impressed now a days arent they?
ladies and gentlemen…the haters…hating on a bonafide legend of music and production…
Didnt realize anyone was hating on his past accomplishments and achievements … interesting concept you have going on there though.
you’re their leader…you should already know…
im putting myself on timeout for the rest of the day…before i get myself suspended…
