does anyone else find the idea of standing on a stage dancing with an iPad totally ridiculous?

[dariowirtz]

does anyone know the brand and model of these sunglasses????

would be cool

[joshboy88420]

Did anyone else notice that Beatport is sponsoring Paperdiamond who is talking about Apple which owns iTunes... kinda retarded.

[evenflow140]

i kinda did at first, but you have to realize not many people use an ipad for live performance, this makes paper diamond unique to many other dj/producers. also im pretty sure he controls effects by tilting the ipad in certain directions, much like the midi fighter 3D. so what may seem like dancing, he is actually controlling midi and audio effects

The bit about him hitting people up on Twitter is totally true, I tweeted I was going to see him on my 21st and he hit me up prior to the show to wish me a happy birthday

its all about preference my man find what feels right and roll with it

[Aston Margolis-Dias]

I dont dislike this dude. But I do kind of feel the same way that I do about Pretty Lights And I kind of feel like their music doesnt take very many risks. If you follow me?

[Jon McConnell]

Are you sets prerecorded as far as you know what set list your playing that night?

[Nichole Maldonado]

man i'd love to make some music but i have no clue on where to start >.>

[BOOZEfueledREPTILES]

I didn't mean to insult you, one never knows with whom they're speaking online. I really like using my iPad along with my APC40 and my Remote 25SL, they are all good for different things, but it's all preference. It's difficult as a controllerist to make what you're doing onstage look interesting/entertaining as I'm sure you well know. But we probably pretty much all look stupid jumping around, pushing buttons and tweaking knobs/faders...And I concur, Paper Diamond rocks!
