I had the privilege hearing you play live in Ghent, (Kozzmozz party). It was imho a great Live PA, bit it missed a bit “punch”, some people found it too monotone, too clean and not very “shakeable” music. Is this something you are aware of? And are you going to adjust your live PA’s in the future?
stupid questions.
Thanks for the feedback, I'll pass that onto Ben. Almost as stupid as 99% of your posts on this board?

at least we're on the same level

- serious, what the hell was the above question asking, 'why does your music suck?' then he went on to say, are you aware of this and are you going to adjust it? It sounded like he forced his opinion on to him.

I see an alter-ego remix coming soon

dude, that was question was asked with respect towards the artist, though is it wrong to give a bit critic ?
I guess you'd like to have an "oh you are so great, you're the man" interview....
If you read the reports of fe Kozzmozz, you'll read that the people liked the Live-act but that it missed "something"... semilar reports when Sleeparchive played Live in Holland... Oh lemme guess that people know sh!t about minimal music

I didn’t intend to disrespect you and I totally respect him as an artist, he’s a genius, I guess I expected to see an interview that reflected his views.

I find it interesting that you managed to justify yourself based on the reports of some randoms. I don’t know, I haven’t seen him live, so I guess I really have no idea, but if I went to a sleeparchive party I would expect monotones and drones, I wouldn’t go expecting to dance my ass off.. guess that’s just me. I’m surprised he managed to answer you, I expected him to say…… it’s just the way it is..

I would expect monotones & drones & to dance my ass off, if you are not dancing your ass off at a party...whats the point? There's enough chin stroking as it is

No hard feelings,

But I was there 2 at that party and I must say, his productions are marvellous, his livepa was for me great, but he lost the crowd.
So my question was if he would adjust his live in the future. Imho not a disrespectful question.

Not kissing ass here -
Your work is great. It's nice to see someone who really understands how to write great tracks that can make the body and head dance in the way that your tracks do. Your understanding of what "minimal" is really shows and I love it.
