ESKIMO LIVE
Another video from the famous king of Dead Acts, Eskimo... He actually jumps up on the desk so the crowd can workshop all of him, one knob is touched at the very end of the video.

Some of the most amazing finger pointing I've ever seen.

3 Essential tips to turning the perfect knob
1. Always remember to have THREE points of contact, advanced knob turning can be dangerous.
2. Make sure to use your whole body to turn the knob. These days, knobs are made out of extremely stiff plastic and titanium metal pots, you need to get your entire body weight into that knob if you want to go from 0 - 127 and back flawlessly
3. If you can, purchase a controller that allows you to assign your mouth cavity as an extra parameter. Here is a great example of our favourite pinup Dead Act Dali showing how she has assigned the ressonance of the cutoff filter to her facial muscles.

shanti @ the gathering , DF
This guy keeps fiddling with a fader on his giant mixing desk, from what I can see he never brings it up, just makes sure it is always at it's lowest level.

La Baaz Live @ XDC MUSIC Mexico
Another sneaky from behind the back video of this guy with a clearly laid out automated set in Ableton. Live or not?

Dj Pixel Live
Last one for today! I'll quote the comment from the original contributor (Thanks!).
Watch for the phantom knob twists, they're mental, it must also be a very powerful knob on that controller as it seems to do everything. There's some cameo appearances from some of the biggest polished turds in the business as well.

Red Sun live @ Psymind
One of the guys can control the music by getting between two half naked muscly men and tripping the crowd out with his amazing dance moves.

Dali blatently faking her synth skills (once again)
Dali! I wish you would come here and let us all know what the fuck you are doing girl!
This frustrates me so much, because she is actually pretending to play the synth along with the programed riff. Some guys get up there and just dance/do nothing, but here is someone who is actually faking it.
The best part of this video, for me, is at exactly one minute, where she plays the Nord with the lead line.
The notes in the riff go [flat 2, flat 7, root], so in the key of C minor this would be Db, Bb, C right? Listen to the riff and play it yourself on a keyboard, it's not hard... yet somehow she manages to leap at least 5 notes between those first two, which should in theory be directly next to each other.
If you have a musical ear, listen to the notes and watch what she is playing.
Perhaps she was harmonizing, but I don't think so because the riff seems to magically play while she runs off and gets a cigarette, and by the looks of it, it is laced with MDMA.
This video is worth the watch the whole way through, lot's of little Dead Act treats in store

VIRTUAL ATTACK LIVE IN RUSSIA @ MOSCOW
Doesn't touch a thing and the mix is clearly shown on the laptop screen. Busted.

Aquatica Live at Mexico Oct 08
This man looks as though he has his whole set premixed into a giant wave file. I like the little adjustment on the massive mixing desk also.

Infected Mushroom - Oh Dear
So they might have a live guitar and vocals, but does that justify the fact they have their set pre sequenced? Can anyone tell if that is logic or not? You can clearly see the set premixed out with mixed down wave files at 1:09, pause it and have a look for me.
Does this count as live?

GMS Live @ Lust Summer 2008.
Ah GMS! A good classic live set - wait.... is that, no it can't be.... no it IS! Traktor DJ studio.
Nothing live about this set, just another DJ pretending to be something he is not.
GMS responds violently
