Comments floating around about this at the moment go something along the lines of..

"YEAH PLAY BUTTON YEAH"

I like Flume, he's a great producer, but this was a 'live' performance, I guess people just expect more.

This is a free gig held each year by Triple J, so the fact people are actually making noise about it is concerning, in a sense Flume is a frontier of next generation australian electronic music and he isn't exactly impressing the audiophiles.

What I've taken from this...

when in doubt, HUMANIMALS to the rescue.

I guess the underlying question is, would you pay money to see this, and when have you paid and received something similar?

Rock musicians do a crap load of hard work in studios and they don't just get on stage and play there songs through a CD player.

Artists also have to realise, they aren't just playing to the so and so amount of people infront of them anymore, you can bet that 90% of gig's are getting recorded via video somehow and a greater majority of people will actually see what you are doing, and if you are being lazy, you are going to get slammed.
I couldn't agree more.

Getting a keyboard on stage fixes the clapping issue.

i quite like the track, but kinda agree here. our buddy performs his own tracks with ableton LIVE, not just automated, freeing him up for 4 minutes of air clapping and peter hookery like this chap.

HOOK RATING: 6/10

and this is why people hate ableton 'performers' (i know there are exceptions)

the track isn't great either
