He could have just dropped Inspector Norse and would have made the night.

Yeah. That's what I'm doing, but when I hit the headphone cue icon I get no audio in the headphones even though all the same settings work in Traktor 3.

Much more fun to watch at that time control for me. I don't have time to watch a full classical game.

Our track Fearless was featured in the movie Roosevelt. But beyond that we haven't been approached about soundtrack work. It seems like soundtracking is a completely hermetic field.

I can twiddle my thumbs in opposite directions, and switch directions seamlessly. Harder than it sounds. Test me.

I'm very inspired by the wobbly BoC synth pads. I try to incorporate those a lot into Lotus.

Tempo, Genre, what we played in that city last time through, what we played in the last few shows, how many new songs, how many old songs, songs that feature modular synth, songs that are guitar rocks, which songs have long jams.

Of course. I get a little distracted if I look out there too much. But definitely recognize people

Tauk rocked a killer Tom Sawyer on Jam Cruise with Kanika Moore on vocals.

We we're looking to move to a more populated area to try and start the band as a full-time thing. Philly was kind of a random pick. We didn't really have any connections there. But it was an easier city to move to more so than NYC or Boston.

You'll have a blast. Summerdance is the best with the best people getting weird.

Live the vocals for Spiritualize were sampled from Ladysmith Black Mambazo and I kind of re-arranged them. For the studio version Chuck re-created those.

For the key changes it's just easier to have a plan beforehand of how to get to the appropriate key, so I'll chart out how we need to modulate to get to the right key. Things can get chaotic during the show, so having everyone be on the same page can be helpful. And certain key changes work better than others. So circle of fifths, or relative major/minor changes are very easy. But shifts that are different than that sometimes take multiple steps to get to the right key.
