so, Ableton on Apple, then Novation X-station (keyboard, audio/midi interface) 2x novation launchpad (playing and recording loops, overdubbing, also step sequencer), korg nanokontrol (used as a mixer) akai lpd8 (drums, effects) eowave-ribbon (ribbon controller) MFB Microzwerg (little semi-modular analog synth) MFB Urzwerg Pro (analog sequencer for the Microzwerg), headphones (instead of microphone) i think thats all :)
Thanx! The live part in Ableton - I play drums with the pads (Akai LPD), then I record the beats as midi, the same with the keyboard, i record midi live on empty clips. I hit Record and Play with the Launchpad. One of the synths has pre-recorded midi clips. The acid synth-I use a max/msp patch to make Launchpad a sequencer. This time I had also an analog seq. and synth by "MFB", which I normally dont bring, but usually I have a turntable to drop acapellas or locked grooves for extra live vibe:)
by they way, looking at Jeff Mills djing is quite amazing. I wish there are more djs like him. What he does - i take it as a live show, even he uses dj equipment. I think in the future the border between djing and electronic music live show will slowly dissapear. Both types of performances are great if they are done well, why not joining them?
He is the new Jeff Mills in my humble opinion. At this point of his carreer he could make billions on beatport selling EDM, or choose to keep going what he is doing here, pure improvisation, passion, live tools... It does not matter that some times he fails trying some improvisation, because he puts so many passion in it.
paulokoko The Bulgarian White Wizard Kink...thank, you baby jesus, I am not insane. I keep comparing Kink to the Wizard for years now and people think I am crazy...but they have no idea what Strahil does - he is not your typical DJ - he is a producer! And in my opinion, there are only 2 left in the world (real producers of electronic music) and those are Strahil and Jeff.
Musically Kink is a genius, but the reason I buy his records and see his shows is because he genuinely loves what he's doing (look at the happy face haha).. Plus he gives us insight in how he makes his masterpieces (check out "making of handmade") and always replies on questions concercing his gear or which tracks he uses.. Most DJ's are arrogant pricks, but watching this boiler room set it's like one of your mates is f*cking around on his new set-up and I'm just kicking back enjoying the show
At the time I was a regular listener of Kink fm radio, Astra 19 E and it was customary to record the sounds of the electronation program on CD by chance that day I couldn't, it was a Saturday I was with a friend and I went to show him the program, when second part spins this 15-25 minute remix of pure magic, at the end the show hosts gave a happy laugh, best track ever from electronation without a doubt.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🖤
One thing I hate about boiler rooms : the host. Did you see how he tells KinK that there is only one minute left ? One minule ! Are you serious ? DJing, playing electronic music live, it's not only pushing start/stop in the middle of your set. KinK is building his world, his music, setting a mood, a rythm.. and like in any song, you have a start and an end. They could advise him sooner...
you are correct. it's a laptop at the core w/ arrangements in place from his original productions, but the point is, it doesn't necessarily FEEL like it. It feels alive, which is what we all crave, inherently, on the dance floor, and what most laptop sets lack. It's beauty.
The impact that rare sounds make the first time you hear them, once two and three. Radio Kink fm electronation 2009/2010/2011. I don't remember the correct date, best electronic sound I've heard since ever. The best song on this program, they were talking, they stopped talking, they were silent and I followed the music... A woman's voice, soft melodic beat and bells, replicate in the long track, sounds coming from nowhere in a perfect harmony of rare beauty. It's embarrassing the best song on that program and perhaps the best electronic sung sound in the world of all time, no one listens to these DJ's incompetence.🤔🖤
never seen a neck dance so well. and when he's playing those drum patterns over the top if it, there is definitely some post-record quantization going on there.
I noticed that too, not once did a drum pad sound fall out of place, I think they might be drum loops which he is activating and deactivating by pressing the pads.
thanks! the track on 35 min is KiNK - Existence (with some additional live sequence) i posted a full tracklist some weeks ago, you`ll see if you open the older comments. i can repost if needed
Right on !! Sometimes his music is not always to my liking but you just have to respect a man that loves and shows it how much he enjoys music and his craft ! Madness

yo kink got BOILER ROOM dancing. that's a massive achievement! this guy is super gifted man, great energy in there :)
Its important to note that he is really passionate and talented even that adds to the mood he establishes. Very catchy set. 10/10
wanted to say that... boiler room people dancing..
Горда съм, че съм българка! Голям поклон, г-н KiNK, правите ме много щастлива :)

Agreed! Something magical and special about creating while playing! Love what you do!

+PlaceGunToHead I SAID THE SAME THING THE OTHER DAY!!!!!
this guy is such a joy to watch and listen to. goddamnit ,everytime !
it's the chance that everything could fall apart into musical entropy that gives every live session life

Kink you're a genius, one of the finest live acts techno has ever seen! We're still waiting for you in the canary islands! Respect

probably one of the most talented guys of todays dance music. i salute you, sir! :)
this is the most exciting live setup i've seen in ages... he's DOING a live set. wow.
This guy is a true live performer... I still can't wrap my head around his live sets
4:15 - That synchronized head-bobbing right there is the stuff of dreams.
+Atli James it's quite simply sensational
+blessedisthesound Mesmerizing even!
+Atli James haha you know it
Kink: Best Live Act of the Millenium! Such a talent, such a pleasure to watch!
I have to watch it over and over, the best Boiler Room i see, a real live act, simply amazing.
you are correct. it's a laptop at the core w/ arrangements in place from his original productions, but the point is, it doesn't necessarily FEEL like it. It feels alive, which is what we all crave, inherently, on the dance floor, and what most laptop sets lack. It's beauty.
i am watching this over and over again. and each time i realize more and more how good this is
First time I see people dancing at boiler room's shows :)
In france, forever ^^
you should watch Tbilisi boiler room vids :)

Big ups to Kink... Not seen a DJ perform so much of a set live in a long while. much respect.
amazing live act !!!
absolutely brilliant
so sick that it's actually a sample of a train in the beginning !
never seen a neck dance so well.

I noticed that too, not once did a drum pad sound fall out of place, I think they might be drum loops which he is activating and deactivating by pressing the pads.
Not neccessarily, you can pre-quantize what you record in Ableton for example for the drums to get recorded without mistake.
You should, it's great. So much energy
This set is awesome !
I admire you and your way to see and feel music. I am learning a lot from you. Thanks!!
Kink holy shit!! Amaaazing live set absolutely rocked it
