Re: digweed at vagabond last night...

since when are you not allowed to post videos you personally take with your phone??? i am confused.

... for some reason I thought of some rock bands in the 70s-80s who allowed people to tape their live concerts, and share.. but I guess its a little more complicated with edm now since there is a lot of people involved in making those tracks, etc.

From what I've seen most of us here really like his work.. so why not share the love ? I dunno

sharing something without your input, consent or control of how your work is represented.

To be honest, that is inevitable.. the only reason it hasn't happened yet is because cell phone makers use shitty mics, and even if you record an extended clip, its pretty much useless at that kind of decibel level. There are just a few phones out there than use HAAC mics that can handle the noise levels without any significant distortion. Eventually there will be more phones/devices like that, and you will get more people recording stuff...

They will have to ban smartphones from the shows if they don't want anything recorded.

I used this: Amazon.com: Nokia 808 PureView Unlocked Phone with a 41 MP Camera with Carl Zeiss Optics--U.S. Warranty (White): Cell Phones Accessories

@ 360p for a smaller file size, and I brought two batteries with me.

The whole point of this was to let people who couldn't go, get a feel for the night.. and of course for my personal enjoyment and memories from the night.

Next thing people are ripping the files

I did exactly that, just to test it out and see how it sounds.. extracted the audio track from the mp4 clip, and then converted it to MP3 using foobar. Played with the EQ in foobar and found this to be best



Here are 15 mins from the first hour in mp3, its not great.. but I am listing to it right now, and its usable if you just want to get a feel:

You can ... but if there's a request to take something down from the board from a member or one of the artists involved we respect that.

Requests come from different DJs .. who either don't like music leaked without their consent or would prefer poor quality representations of their work removed.

I suppose that after having put your all into a 5 hour set its a bummer the new music your playing thrown out there in fuzzy poor quality. Next thing people are ripping the files and sharing something without your input, consent or control of how your work is represented.

John surfs [ms] hence him spotting the extended clip.

I'm sure short vids of the night are ok.

Re: digweed at vagabond last night...

^ that would be best..

As I suspected.. he asked to take it down, so I will respect that.

Maybe he can let us know when it will be okay to share .. more people need to hear this, it was amazing.

Anyways, I went to see Ben Klock on thursday , Richie Hawtin on Friday.. and yes, they are both very good, but honestly their sets were no where near what John did on Saturday, maybe its just my personal preference, but the way he builds his sets, the mixing.. all of it, its on a different level.

that pic is nuts, i remember the couple times i was there we came out in daylight

Ya.. it happened last year.. i think we came out around 6:45. Last night was super cool because he came on and said that he will have to keep it shorter (until 5) but then I think someone from management came and talked to John, he saw that the crowd was having a great time and I think he told him to play a little longer... or at least that is what I got from the hand gestures

Re: digweed at vagabond last night...

It was incredible! The last hour was unreal. I don't have time right now, but I will share more later.. here is the first 90 mins ... He had to switch mixers here, you can hear it all happen. The audio is pretty good I think.. for a phone recording anyway..I have a feeling they might ask me to take it down, but for now.. enjoy!

You can bring up the volume, the sound won't crack. It picked up way more of the crowd than I thought it would, but oh well..

Right when we walked out


Vid is processing right now, should be live in 10 mins or so
