am i the only person that appreciates, and is a fan of both "traditional" instrumental performances, and "electronic" performances? the way i see it, that's the beauty of music....there are no limitations to creating amazing sounds. maybe if you stopped nitpicking what is and isn't "music" you could actually enjoy this. get out of your head.
@philoradobay nope, you're not the only one. don't worry, youtube peeps are just a really bad barometer of the general musical taste of the population. in statistics, it's what we call a biased sample.. there are plenty of open minded people, just not many on yt
alright... so honestly... all of you guys who are 'musicians' would be absolutely LOST trying to remake this song. ANYONE can learn the guitar solo to a pink floyd song... but This is REAL MICRO-PRODUCTION. It is broken down... and re-edited into something completely new with the remixing/re-editing artists' twist and flavor. This dude is a genius.... and he can play the piano and synth... analogue era... much better than all of us. He is a musical genius of the 21st century.
is this available for download anywhere? derek is a tru g. his sound is so funky and dirty you can't help but just want to go crazy when you see him in concert. PL puts on a damn good show, no question.
pretty lights is doing something right hes fuckin ragin.but it really isnt that hard to sell out red rocks its a somewhat small venue when comparing the capacity to some of the big ampitheatres,pavillions, and arenas in the country. red rocks holds around 8,000 alot of the ampitheatres hold more than 20,000 sry just sayin
@datsikxdubstep 10,000, really. But still, that many thousands is a Hell of a crowd, considering he sold that show out at the same time that several...."larger" acts were cancelling acts nationwide because of low ticket sales. Make of that what you will.
@terrapin1station06 damn right, i was there front row and drove from minnesota for it. ive seen him 5 times this year, no one is better. if you have a problem with his music, go listen to your own music, which is probably overproduced music not written by the actual artists themselves. much love.
@terrapin1station06 I was at that show it was f-ing amazing. by far the best show i have seen, also saw sts9 at redrocks this year, as they sold out as well. Supposed my friend said theyre gonna hook back up next summer in colo at dicks sporting good arena, but we will see people r all talk
@habitatboards04 Both tribe and pretty lights are playing two nights at red rocks, each. Tribe in September (birthday gift to myself - winning!) and PL in august. Cue rage this summer - bassnectar in a month, tribe, pretty lights, rusko, glitch mob, lotus, umphreys. Colorado is fucking spoiled by musicians.
@terrapin1station06 Believe me I Know, you forgot deadmau5 is coming in august too!! But yeah i already have my tickets to all those shows. Its gonna be a wild summer, You going to any? Or do you live elsewhere
@RisenDevil96 DUDE! E-forest is in michigan, you kidding me?! Not to mention the birth place of rothbury. PL will be there, Big G, Lotus, EOTO, bonobo, emancipator, among a number of other artists. got my fingers crossed for Tribe showin up XD
@terrapin1station06 yuppp i agree with you 100% on that one... those colorado kids are spoiled... between red rocks, and the fox and boulder theatres... they get a good show every single week
Ok people. Stop arguing about this shit. Who cares how it's played or on what kind of instrument - if it's dope music, IT'S DOPE MUSIC! Even if I made it by sampling the noises my ass makes after eating taco bell, if it's dope, it's dope shit.
Now for those looking for a DL link I'll update the info this weekend with a link. I changed YT accounts and just looked in my old inbox to find literally hundreds of requests. Check back in a day or two for the link.
@terrapin1station06 First off u cant say shit until you have seen PL live. Secondly, everyone saying PL is good in the studio but shitty at shows needs to realize how PL makes these beats. Derek doesnt sit up there and press play. He is tweeking and remixing the songs all the time. There arent any instruments you can play live to make this sound. PL wouldnt be what it is with a guitar and keyboard. Just appreciate. I mean they put these cds out for free while ppl go buy garbage cds for 14 bucks
@terrapin1station06 well mutherfucking said homie... Pretty Lights is the hottest shit comin through any speakers right now and if you think other wise than you need a Labotomy... and as for this song, one word- JIZZ
@terrapin1station06 Not to mention when he samples things they usually bear no resemblance to the original creation. Its like putting Lego's together you do not have to actually create the Lego's yourself to make something awesome.
@Hockey933 its not really his live shows that make him talented (personally i feel that at a pl show there are way to many distractions to notice if he is a talented performer...between the awesome light show and the million of douche bag chads on too many drugs.) not saying he isnt a talented performer because he is ... but its his talent in the studio that make him one of the best producers ever.
@Juiceboxdubstep and even better......he produces live. so he takes what he does in the studio, adds distracting lights, a bunch of hippies and frat boys, and way too many drugs, and then further produces on stage. yes. he is an amazing artist. and absolutely incredible live
actually little homies, derek doesn't just "press play." Pay attention to how he operates the monome 64. he creates his own beat loops, then loops them, programming each song, live. then he brings in the samples. either way, hes not shredding a guitar, but he's operating the monome like a mad scientist. you're kinda givin' him shit, but it takes skill to program 64 buttons for each song (mappe dto a laptop), then try to remember on the fly which beat goes with each of his 64 buttons.
@dougwwyatt Finally someone that knows what the fuck there talking about. haha.
In Ableton Live, Derek has pre recorded tracks that he pieces together, and works by selecting them with his Monome and MPD32, controlling the samples -modulating them and shit.
@robobot8989 definitely not, just seen a lot more electronic music than you have and can tell you that you need to hear more. He is mediocre. 2 years ago maybe. but its the same thing everyshow. There are much better artists than PL. sorry you should look into it. You sound like a pretty lights custy.
hell yeah!! I came all the way from dallas for that show. glad we could bring in the new year together with pretty lights. N N N N N N N Now approaching MIDNIGHT!!
@mrcrunkle aww mrcrunkledude, im sorry, seems to me you're just a hater. i suppose it was silly thing to say, I got all excited because I felt special. silly me. but why comment on a video if you're going to pick fights with people? do something useful!
@krissayx i guess ill jump up to nash just to give PL a chance. you know to not be just a hater. Hope he brings it instead of being 7 feet tall and just dancing on stage pushing buttons. great producer excellent busniness man. shitty live performer. but i will give it a shot. more downtempo old shit the better
@mrcrunkle Good to hear! i think you'll enjoy it. but just so you know, he's not the only one that should be accused of "dancing on stage and pushing buttons". look at any performer, rusko, bassnectar, they all do it, but what else can they really do? He's aware of these accusations too, and to avoid them he brings Cory to play the drums to make it more "live" I get what you're saying though--- its just definitely not only him
@krissayx rusko dooooooes a lot on stage. bassnectar definitely does a lot more knob wrok etc. PL tends to push play and hita few samples every now and then. GREAAAAT Dance party lots of ladies. love that. buuuut IDK there are just so many many good acts out there, I just wish they got the respect they deserved opposed to the overhype PL is getting. cory is a baddddd live drummer, just very very basic never gonna be blown away by him.
@mrcrunkle yeah I can't really argue... It's just that I don't really go see him for "live" music... I go to see him so I can actually have a legit pretty lights dance party... equipped with heavy bass and loud music, and also very good light shows
I'll go see an actual band for live music ya know
he's really talented and he's definitely my favorite.. but theres not much he really CAN do for his live performances.. so I still give him the same amount of respect as anyone else
@mrcrunkle , that's all live PA is when your talking about computer music. Tweaking effects knobs and dropping samples over a rhythm track. Sometimes we'll spice things up with some live musicians of sorts, but all this stuff is a solo act. 90% of what you hear is PROGRAMMED...it was never played live...and couldn't be played live. So, basically the performance is just a live remix of a bunch of pre-recorded audio tracks with live effect manipulation. That's all.....
@TheGrowdaddy the live effect manipulation is very sub par. and the "live drummer" aka monkey w. symbals cory isa very mundane and boring drummer.
but these preprogramed songs, aren't bad,pretty fun sounds. I just would like to see more on stage manipulation, dancing on stage and drinking beer is not performing, no matter how good your beats are.
@mrcrunkle , it's sort of a paradox in that it is music, and pleasing to some. But the "live" aspect has been complete removed. The musical bonding between musicians, or the chemistry, has been removed with music like this. It's just one guy composing the entire piece. You can't really play more than one instrument at once. But the way you're talking about it "dancing and drinking" is just you being a douche. That's not what a performance is, "effect manipulation is sub par".. what a moron
@TheGrowdaddy If you have ever seen him perform then you know after a little manipulation to his songs, he will step back drink and dance then do a little, repeat process. Watch him the whole show and see how much he works up there. I mean with pre programmed music that sounds good already, you think he would be able to mix it up more and keep each song fresher by working hard up there and manipulating more.
@mrcrunkle , my bad... i was a little out of line. I thought you were referring to computer music in general. I don't know who you're talking about.... the remixer... "Pretty Lights"? Never seen him perform... it's kind of hard to put on a show when your computer is your entire instrument arsenal. :(... Robert Moog used to talk about it all the time. Where music was going and where it came from. Not much live collaboration these days. Unfortunate. Still some wicked tracks though. sry 4 freaking
@mrcrunkle , so you understand. Translating a programmed piece of music into a live act is an entire project and extremely technically challenging. Also very expensive. Unless the musician has the resources it is unlikely you will get much of a show outside of the live manipulation. Effects and Dynamics make tracks...and they're much more colorful and expressive than an instrument of any type. So to say that manipulating effects is "sub par" just shows you don't know wtf you're talking about kid
@mrcrunkle still the man releases his cds for free. if you like it...go buy a ticket to his show. These sounds cant be produced with instruments you play
@laughldd Yes it can! The instruments are called turntable, laptop, MPD32, and monome. STS9, Derek (PL) and other talented producers of today use a variety of electronic instruments that can be played with a surprising level of virtuosity. But doing this all with acoustic instruments? forget it.
I can't believe I've never seen this. Favorite-d.

@krissayx rusko dooooooes a lot on stage. bassnectar definitely does a lot more knob wrok etc. PL tends to push play and hita few samples every now and then. GREAAAAT Dance party lots of ladies. love that. buuuut IDK there are just so many many good acts out there, I just wish they got the respect they deserved opposed to the overhype PL is getting. cory is a baddddd live drummer, just very very basic never gonna be blown away by him.

@mrcrunkle yeah I can't really argue... It's just that I don't really go see him for "live" music... I go to see him so I can actually have a legit pretty lights dance party... equipped with heavy bass and loud music, and also very good light shows
I'll go see an actual band for live music ya know
he's really talented and he's definitely my favorite.. but theres not much he really CAN do for his live performances.. so I still give him the same amount of respect as anyone else

@mrcrunkle , that's all live PA is when your talking about computer music. Tweaking effects knobs and dropping samples over a rhythm track. Sometimes we'll spice things up with some live musicians of sorts, but all this stuff is a solo act. 90% of what you hear is PROGRAMMED...it was never played live...and couldn't be played live. So, basically the performance is just a live remix of a bunch of pre-recorded audio tracks with live effect manipulation. That's all.....

@TheGrowdaddy the live effect manipulation is very sub par. and the "live drummer" aka monkey w. symbals cory isa very mundane and boring drummer.
but these preprogramed songs, aren't bad,pretty fun sounds. I just would like to see more on stage manipulation, dancing on stage and drinking beer is not performing, no matter how good your beats are.

@mrcrunkle , it's sort of a paradox in that it is music, and pleasing to some. But the "live" aspect has been complete removed. The musical bonding between musicians, or the chemistry, has been removed with music like this. It's just one guy composing the entire piece. You can't really play more than one instrument at once. But the way you're talking about it "dancing and drinking" is just you being a douche. That's not what a performance is, "effect manipulation is sub par".. what a moron

@TheGrowdaddy If you have ever seen him perform then you know after a little manipulation to his songs, he will step back drink and dance then do a little, repeat process. Watch him the whole show and see how much he works up there. I mean with pre programmed music that sounds good already, you think he would be able to mix it up more and keep each song fresher by working hard up there and manipulating more.

@mrcrunkle , my bad... i was a little out of line. I thought you were referring to computer music in general. I don't know who you're talking about.... the remixer... "Pretty Lights"? Never seen him perform... it's kind of hard to put on a show when your computer is your entire instrument arsenal. :(... Robert Moog used to talk about it all the time. Where music was going and where it came from. Not much live collaboration these days. Unfortunate. Still some wicked tracks though. sry 4 freaking

@TheGrowdaddy haha our argument makes sense now. I'm with ya.

@mrcrunkle , so you understand. Translating a programmed piece of music into a live act is an entire project and extremely technically challenging. Also very expensive. Unless the musician has the resources it is unlikely you will get much of a show outside of the live manipulation. Effects and Dynamics make tracks...and they're much more colorful and expressive than an instrument of any type. So to say that manipulating effects is "sub par" just shows you don't know wtf you're talking about kid

@mrcrunkle still the man releases his cds for free. if you like it...go buy a ticket to his show. These sounds cant be produced with instruments you play
laughldd 1 year ago
@laughldd Yes it can! The instruments are called turntable, laptop, MPD32, and monome. STS9, Derek (PL) and other talented producers of today use a variety of electronic instruments that can be played with a surprising level of virtuosity. But doing this all with acoustic instruments? forget it.
