Live production mastermind KiNK took us through the setup that he uses and how it all works together to build a show on-the-fly. Read more + see a full list of gear here: djtechtools.com/2015/10/25/how...
Special thanks to the staff at Mezzanine in SF for allowing us to film at sound check. - Наука та технологія
people here seem to be misunderstanding something. he brings all this gear because he uses all the gear. its very clear when he actually shows you what he is doing, how he is doing it and the gear he is using to do it." Live" in electronic music is a misleading term but this is as live as you are going to get. this guy is a great producer and excellent performer and all round good-guy
+fitzjay01 i wouldnt say its a misleading term because hes not playing every note/instrument in realtime, the term live can be used for any performance, which doesnt need to be musical at all.
+Aaron Wilson like, what? People created the house music. Aira is more or less hated by most. Aira will bring back the real house producers ? WTF. Im using a Casio RZ 1 so that means Im totally a real house producer or a fake coz Roland invented house ? Think twice sometimes, or even once, but do it.
ahahahahahaha
youre so smart me stupid
And btw, coz maybe someday you will be around some people with some actual knowladge about house, RZ 1 is a house classic :D
that's pretty naive, thinking that roland is reinventing anything.. there are muuuuch better hardware options than this software in hardware boxes which roland is releasing, but yeah they are cheap, so a lot of newbies can join the joy of using hardware.
I will never understand how anybody can hate on this dude / true fan of music - gave away what other charge for / droppin science for free / just now answered like 10 questions I had / kink we need you in hip hop - much luv for all the pros that take the time to help us amateurs
Who hates him? Are you crazy?
I've been listening to electronic music my whole life.
And I was always amazed how people can create music live out of nothing.
He only needs a few devices and his own endless imagination. It's just incredible to me.
Holy shit, I've wanted him to do something like this for so long!
It's SHIT
Now it became reality. Thanks!
One of the best, most high energy live shows I've ever seen - kept getting random crowd members to come press random buttons on the launchpads to create sequences etc, and would just run with it. Played close to 4 hours and didn't look tired at all, but the club had already exceeded their licence by 40 minutes. Friendliest guy ever to top it off.
This guy always was just unreal, so confident and so smooth with everything he does, big love KiNK!
"we can leave some space for the next time"
Come on DJTT, we're waiting. Can't get enough of this guy
Genuinely enjoyable watching an artist as talented as him talk about how he creates
So happy to see people making music in front of your face!
I've seen a Boiler room set from him and he is awesome.
Kink is a real beast ! Thank your for this video DJTT
Kink is a straight up beast.
No
This is amazing. Thank you KiNK for sharing your knowledge and techniques! Much love from Brasil!
More of these live rig interviews please! I love em.
This series is one of the most engaging ever, I don't get so much out of Against The Clock, just some Techno being banged out in a sweaty ten mins. This shows the mechanics of live performance and reassures me my own approach, however limited by economics, is right up there with the best.
Its absolutely impressive how good he is at live performing. For me the hardest part is to get the right setup and to basically set it all up with ableton, some loops and all that stuff. And thank you four sharing your setup, it will definitely help me :)
this dude needs a Master's Class .... great producer/dj and able to tell you exactly what you need to know within a very complicated and easily overwhelming field
Impressive. This is a well thought out setup, with a bit of chaos factor thrown in for good measure. This guy knows his gear and executes some very dynamic sequences on the fly. I really enjoy these live p.a. type of sets.
Never seen anyone enjoy what he does as much as this guy.. Kink, you're a real master!
what a great live performer!!! this is as live as it gets...
Thank you for sharing technical knowledge ;)
So musical. This is a pretty mindblowing example of using midi and midi controllers in a live environment. Thank you for sharing
Can't wait to check him out in Chicago this weekend!
Aaaalways inspired by KiNK. You're one of a kind my friend.
What a great insight into the live aspect of playing electronic music, super dope!
finally! this is so dope! thank you DJTT
this guy is a wizard! so much feeling and he never forgets to reverence the past
Finally saw him live at Straf_werk ade, what a awesome style has this guy, so groovy and funky and love all the bleeps!
KINK GREETING FROM BMORE!!!!!!!!! love what you do
Nice video. One of my favorite DJ and producer!
To help backup the opinions of everybody here who believes this guy is awesome, the original meaning of DJ is disc jockey, he had applied this classic concept of crossfsding between two vinyl decks instead to his digital laptop situation, incorporating loops and different samples and percussion, KiNK is one of the endless amount of guys who persuaded me that my laptop and I myself wasn't useless when it comes to creating this genre of music, he goes about his music in a unique way, not always brining in the the right loop at the right time, yet, this sort of mistake/intended action brings about diversity in his pieces, hope you see this KiNK so you know that you definitely have some well believing fans out there :D keep it up, especially love your past boiler room sets, get on there again mate! :D
When that beat dropped, i started to dance. KiNK, you are the master!
this man changed my life - inspired me to play live 💎
great use of equipment..made me rethink my own stuff...thanks
Greetings from Bulgaria! Kink is briliant
what a pleasure to listen to that just amazing
from Bulgaria ...my country . seeing you soon kink , i will be meating you in my dj career
Awesome.. very creative, dynamic and just so deeeeep !!
Wow, that was seriously impressive and enlightening.
I love it - wow so inspiring. I hope to do live sets someday
I love watching this,
hella innovative !
thank you for being lay back, and gives us feed back!
Brilliant stuff !
Man my hats off to you... you are amazing do you know how to play keyboards or did you just pick it up as you went along...and what cool is all that equipment is not that expensive...the most costly thing there would be the laptop then the mixer
this was so awesome
What a talented and nice guy...bravo
lol i wonder where he got the kinky nops from on the TR-8 from.
nice work, love his style.
So happy i got to meet this man, fuck everytime i see this bloke i get fate in humanity, his attitude is awesome! #fanboybehavior, but no seriously, Kink you do inspire me as a producer and writer.
If you think about it, these sounds are about as new as an electric guitar was in the 90s. That's nice IMO, because they are classic instruments already.
Stuff like this is so much better than regular 1s & 2s work
True legend!
That ring thingy is just mindblowing
Great breakdown , thanks.
just became my favourite dj..
WoW just WoW
He is my hero !
he is soooo talented, and he is totally Immersed in house and techno music. U can see AND hear that he grew up with it. besides his gifted talent for the leploop (which I envy because I am beginning to make music with it) he uses some boxes (not the most expensive, not the shiniest ones) but what comes out is the whole range of club sound from ca. 81 to 98 in perfect style. AND it is as live as it can be. Made for the crowd to dance. Better than most of this LIVE guys with CDJS and TRAKTOR. Absolutely bloody amazing and NICE:)
I will book him to VIENNA as soon as possible.
live looping the lp...#salute
Immer wieder top
Thanks for KiNK Djtt. What plugin he uses to play these nice strings in the end?
I love him so much!
You look some, what like DJ Li' Louie Vega. Great stuff bro.
the idea of what the ring does, is very similar to what the "D-Beam" used to be for on the roland mc-505.
and that was GREAT fun!
he cracked me up when he said "make it nice for NORMAL people in the club" ha ha ha... eyh... i think we know what he means there!
what is he using for a string synth/sampler ? anyone know?
This is where I come for inspiration before I start jamming on my TR-8
Absolute master at work
What laptop are you using to run all this? Looking for a better one xP
Thanks! What usb hub do he uses?
anyone know what is this max patch that he talks about for the launchpad to control the 303 emulator plugin? i know that the plugin and the max patch sequencer are independent. so it could be used with any other plug in.
fayekhelmi any luck finding the Max patch?
Awesome!
What kind of laptop hardware do you need to play all of this with no buffering and low latency
Love it!
KINK is da man
Wich Ableton live He uses for the sequencing on the 303?
this is mind blowing
the tape on the vinyl for the vocal loop! genius.
True, it is a genius idea, but it's one that goes back around 25, 30 or 40 years, by hip hop dj's, mainly for battles and turntablist routines
Thanks Kink!
Fantastic! 👏👏
Respect !!! What skills !!!
Absolut genial! Thanks😎
This is priceless ❤️
Amazing
very cool sounds.
great!
i'd like to see Strahil vs Ean
im loving it! SA house producers- let's ride on it!
anybody know what USB hub he is using?
What are the Strings (Vst) he is using by the End?
I don’t think he uses VST plug-ins. Even with current MacBook Pros, using VSTs on live performance is a little risky. Considering how many different sounds he use, he probably chose ABL instruments instead of VSTs. He might have a couple of dedicated plug-ins of course, but putting tens of VSTs in a live set is pretty dangerous.
KiNK you're the best!!
a real talent...
how did you loop a vinyl record like that???
Anyone know what audio interface he is using?
Amazing Artist !
4:49: Beautiful organ hook.
His sound ain't my cup of tea but big respect for true livesets! Love it..
the ring is really cool.
Just great
this guy is amazing im a dj a really good one and what this guy does is so beyond djing best way to explain it is making music on the fly unique with every set ... the firest track he did with the jack the house vocal would take most producers at least a few days in a studio ... best part about him is he isnt scared to try things live ..... blows the doors off of these crap edm , diplo, marshmello , jawz crap dj's
Love it.
Please!!!! Which is the name of the piano ?
Now I understand why he dancing that hard while performing.. I jam only with software and sequencer, man it's fun.. Someday I'll go hardware too
I wish they would show , for example" what is the the main Midi Clock" ? Is it the Tr - 8 ? or is Ableton slaved to the clock of the TR-8 and which Novation launch pad's are going to which channel in Ableton. .That would be interesting Thanks
kinky here, accidentaly came back to this video. I`m still using similar system, 3 years after this video. Main midi clock is Ableton, the other way around TR-8 introduces jitter and totally fucks up the sound of the audio clips, especially those, stretched with the Beat algorhythm. Launchpads - I use one to launch pre-recorded clips, the other - to start recording midi clips. Launchpads are not assigned to channels, as I have over 400 channels now, the launchpads are my "browser" through them. i got about 20 midi channels for recording, launchpad 1 stays in that area. the other i use to browse through the few hundred channels. Each track / loop is a channel, cause i want to be able to mix anything with anything, any moment, with no preparation. Yeah, we missed many details, but I need 5-10h video to explain all.. and im already forgetting a lot of things.. i can remember when people actually ask me..
@@strahilvelchev7063 thank you master. you are the absolute live goat.
anyone knows the first track?
