Description

FREE -- Chill out with laptop music lovers, live PA artists, and Ableton Live gurus from the CDM community. Meet + greet at 675 Bar, the cozy, underground Meatpacking hang, complete with a bar + treat menu.

Hosted by DubSpot, as part of their weekend-long Live Sessions tour, and createdigitalmusic.com

From the expressive to the strange, electronic creators share the tools they use to play Live. Confirmed:
* Isomer Transition (aka RJ Valeo) doing some superb-quality techno with lots of knobs and a machinedrum + Ableton Live
* Ted Hayes’ EggBeater wireless shaker for rhythms, built in free software Pure Data and used (in this case) with Ableton Live
* Sound artist Ranjit Bhatnagar with a musical MIDI ironing board (pictured below) controlling Live, as seen at Handmade Music (at which it was covered by Wired.com)
* Track Team Audio’s Michael Hatsis showing some tweaked-out Live control in action – hopefully including his APC40 hacks and monome patches.
* Peter Kirn, playing a set with control TBD – possibly Lemur and/or my Android phone

NOTE: ENTER ON W 13TH STREET, between Hudson + 9th (not, oddly, on Hudson even though that's the address!)
