Pictures from SemiAudiks Boat Party
Brian Drain sent me a link to all the pictures he took from my boat party in July. Check em out.
Great DJ photos - Rukes.com
I’ve recently come upon this guy Rukes, . He takes some amazing pictures of DJ events. He’s mostly in Los Angeles but he has some photos from NYC and Coachella as well. His photos of DeadMau5, James Zabiela, S&D and Junkie XL from Coachella are freaking great. Here’s a little preview.
What gear is DeadMau5 using?
I had the pleasure to help Joel Zimmerman, aka DeadMau5, setup his gear not once but two times at the Austin Electronic Music Festival. Toddy B and I also opened the night and you can hear the last track I played just before DeadMau5 goes on in the below video.
DeadMau5 uses a very unique setup. He’s running Abelton Live on a 17″ G5 MacBook Pro ($2-3k) outputting to an Apoge Ensemble ($2k) soundcard. He’s using a 16×16 (256) Monome controller ($800) for what I’m not totally sure and a touch screen Lemur ($3k) made by Jazz Mutant to control his effects. He’s running 4 stereo outs from his Ensemble to whatever club mixer is at hand, in our case, a Pioneer DJM-800($1600) which was also setup with a Pioneer EFX-1000 ($800). As far as I could tell, he used everything that he brought and used it well.
