An electronic musician’s dilemma

[n3tgraph]

Uhm - is live performing good for you? I wonder?

[juncmodule]

I look at performing live as kind of like smoking crack or shooting heroin. Once you've done it you just want it again and again. So yes, it's good for me.

Now, if you meant will people like it? In recent months I have been taking electronic music courses at college mainly dealing with experimental music. Things like Stockhausen, Cage, Varese, Zenakis, etc. If you've ever heard any of that stuff...well, it's not always easy to listen to. There are people that still perform music that way today. Columbus, Ohio (where I live) has a decent sized "avant gard" community. So it works here, maybe not many other places though.

Another side note, EVERY piece of fan mail I have ever recieved has been from Eastern Europe. I imagine I could do even better if I performed there.

That's one thing I most definitely agree with.

One group comes to mind as being one heck of an awesome electronic act or should i say quasi-psy trance act.

INFECTED MUSHROOM

They rock fullstop, awesome melodies and for two musicians who are greatly influenced by a prog metal act called Dream Theater to push out the best psy-trance music I have heard in a long time is awesome.

These guys play most of there stuff live;
1 PC, 2 keyboards, effects boards and a mixing desk

Awesome sh!t
