s using Pre-Recorded Loops Cheating?
i'm not sure i want to go down this road, but... what about the DJ-artist? isn't the whole idea of what they do is take bits of prerecorded material (VINYL records for the purist-is there a purist in the DJ world?) and "do their thing"?
i realize some take those bits and process them -hence all the effects stuff for djs out there.
so i'm not really sure about the pre-recorded loops cheating thing. i'm sure there are many sides to the story...
on the Buckethead dvd-the performance disc has him playing to prerecorded material, mostly the drum stuff, there might be bass in there too, hard to tell, but he still rocks and it's pretty interesting...to me it would seem hard to coordinate all that and play like he does, WITH THE BUCKET & mask on his head!!! there are a couple times he's adjusting something from some piece of gear, a Numark something.
the only other thing i can think of is the Living Colour tune (cult of personality) using the
samples of Kennedy, Malcolm X, FDR-it was more for "texture" and not part of the composition, and it wasn't really looped, just triggered...
my pathetic 2 cents....
