One wouldn’t think that giant, razor sharp, light pulsing teeth would be synonymous with the essence of a Beethoven arrangement. But one also wouldn’t think that a British guy could have people hangin from the rafters on a Wednesday night in Denver. Think again.
Kill the Noise opened and did everything but that. For a guy spinning with no visuals to back him up, he didn’t have any problems illuminating the place. Bass heavy dubstep anthems had people doin the modified thizzle dance all over the venue. The darkness of his set nearly captured how ominous of a DJ Kill the Noise is when he’s behind the decks. At the very least, he was the very best opener that Feed Me could have had.
With an extended build up to open his tunes for the night, Feed Me’s symphonic sounds made it easy to get wrapped up in the moment and forget I was even at a concert.
I can see why Deadmau5 signed Feed Me to Mau5trap now, he puts on a stunning production just like his big brother, but with bigger teeth than he has ears. If I had to describe his show in one word, it would be “seamless.” I felt like I was in the midst of an orchestra, and every person around me had an instrument in their hands.
Feed Me’s sounds cascaded over everybody as if we were surfing at the beach. He washed us around with his sounds, took us up and down, and left everybody flying in the clouds before his encore. Every time I looked around me, I could see the fruit of Feed Me’s labor; Hands up, eyes closed, heads shaking side to side. It was like a slow motion promo vid for EDC.
I imagine the same feeling resonated throughout the audience during a Mozart production in the late 1700′s; a connection between listener and musician that transcended the music itself. Looks like I’ll be making a stop at the Sahara tent to see Feed Me again at Coachella this weekend. My advice? See this show.
