Daedelus - DJ set (Live on KEXP)

It should come as no surprise that I'm incredibly particular about the way I like my mixing. I suppose this should actually be expected of someone who listens to as much electronic much as I do. I'm typically not the kind to like 30 second blips of a song that jumps right into the next, even if it makes sense and transitions well. It seems schizophrenic if I'm over generalizing. What I like the most about electronic is the journey, the progression of a track or set. I often need several minutes to get to and suspect that I'm not the only one. Watching this video just disproved all of those thoughts. Daedelus seems to spontaneously create a set live on KEXP and it's apparent that he's feeling out the tracks. I dig the vibe, but settle into "feeling it" right about the same time he does (check his facial expressions out right about the 5 minute mark.)

I can't imagine seeing this anywhere else than in the desert.
