Hi again,
I agree with James that the
atmosphere of an ambient gig is very important. I found for me, that performing
at exhibitions, planetariums and chill lounges works better than on raves. But I
*do* think that ambient music should be performed live as well as any other. A
live performance is and will always be something special, a different feel
for both the player and the audience, other than music running from CD.
I admit that I had one or the other
jealous thought about DJs, too ... until I worked with one and found out, it's
an art in itself what they do. But DJs success will never stop me from being a
perfoming artist.
Nevertheless, after more than 20
years of gigging and schlepping I'd say: If I could do what I do with only one
guitar and a laptop, I would ...
