Nev’s Live Performances on Launchpad
While there are a few piece of DJ gear that are responsible for shifting the entire way we look at DJing and music production – there are only a few pieces of gear that are basically responsible for starting people’s careers. The Novation Launchpad is one of those devices. A couple of years back, a young producer by the name of Madeon showed off what he was capable of when he spliced hundreds of songs into a single pop song using the first person view camera. The best part about this story is that Madeon was never a celebrity to begin with. He was just a kid who took some gear and made it work to his liking. Today, there are only a handful of producers out there who have the skills to create basically the same thing. The hats off really goes to Novation, for creating a piece of gear that is both exceptional and inexpensive at the same time. Rest assured, there will be no performances of this caliber being made with only a Rane 64 on hand – it really takes a lot of prep work to create something like this – and it is not easy at all. http://www.djtechtools.com/2013/12/30/routine-nevs-tetris-performance-on-launchpad/
