Mostly Robot - electronic “super group of nerdy white males”
Oh my. Who masterminded this act? Too cool. 
My only question is how do you turn an S4 into an effects tool for vocals? Routing the mic through it? I mean, you can’t do effects to the mic input, can you, other than through the loop recorder. Right?

could the american playin the keys be more stereotyped?
also was the entire crowd there with iphones/cameras? tried to find one person nodding there head but…
mic to line input on an S4 maybe?
you can turn an a/b/c/d deck into a audio input deck
True,
I think he did a completely new mapping in Ableton, as that Jamie Lidell was talking about ring modulators etc.
That is what I thought. Hmm… don’t want to loose a deck though. Must think of something else…

looking forward to see them performing live at berlin festival. was just talking to mr. zornow yesterday about meeting and getting fucked up on water 
I should always check the blog first.

It’s always the cool guys with all the luck! 
Wish I could be there bro’!
You’ll definitely have to loose a deck for live vocal input that is meant to be processed with effects if you want to record internally.
Another workaround would be routing vocals into Ableton Live or another VST host and processing the vocals with Traktor’s 12, a bunch of Traktor’s effects being sold seperately. Then you would record vocals seperately in Ableton and your 4-deck mix in Traktor. This would require some work after having finished the mix though. Just a workaround which I wouldn’t prefer over loosing a deck in Traktor.
ed paris aint nuthin to fuck with
no but seriousl. it´s been quite some time since sam and i met. so i thought this would be a good chance to enjoy some quality time with the übermaster.
I can’t decide if this is cool or just the return of 70s prog rock, in which case somebody fetch me my pitchfork, we’ve got some wizards to burn.
I think this is boring… much, much better things going on in Berlin.
They play their instruments live, cool!
Shiftee is brilliant. Not just his DJ’ing - he’s a funny guy!
Aside from NI, you mean?
Yeah, now that I read the blog, I know the answer to my question (NI) and thus why I said, I need to read the blog first, before I post here.

well i don´t really care much about berlin festival but it´s a good chance to meet up with friends and family
I noticed only half into the video that those guys are Jeremy Ellis, Shiftee and Jamie Lidell, and whoever that other guy is
Did it actually say on the blog? I just noticed when I watched the vid on the blog that every single product they talked about using was an NI product and all I could think of was, “oh, well I guess it’s kind of clever marketing by NI.” It also made me wonder if the visuals part of the show was an NI beta product.
As for the group itself - the idea seems kind of cool. They’re all pretty creative and talented guys. What I’m a bit confused about though is where the actual collaboration comes from. The only part of the vid where they actually mentioned working together was one of them (Jamie maybe?) mentioned using Shiftee’s scratching sounds as a sample; otherwise it just looked like each one of them soloing. Still, NI marketing ploy or not, I’m interested to see where this goes.
