Shapshifter Concert

I Have taken this long to post my first blog because as each week has gone past i have struggled to think of something i thought was worthy of posting. However, after going to Shapeshifter (NZ drum and bass group) on Sunday night at Studio K Road i thought i may briefly talk about that and also post a video that i took at the concert.

After seeing Shapeshifter a number of times live, they have quickly become my favourite NZ band as they consistantly play a great set but more importantly (in my opinion) whenever they play live, it sounds very close to the sound of their recorded cd's. for me this is the sign of a great music group, because we all no how dissappointed we get when we here a band we like live and quite frankly the quality sucks as they cannot reproduce the sound to that of the quality recorded on cd. Now i dont want people replying to this saying that Shapeshifter is good live because they use manly samples and what not to create their sound. Despite this, it is all done live not to mention P Diggs unbelievable talent on the mic. His voice alone is amazing how he sing to the same quality that is voice sounds like on CD. Also, there are bands out their across all genres who are able to play great quality music live.

Anyway i just wanted to share with you what i thought of the concert and if anyone was there or at the saturday gig, would love to hear what you thought. check the video out. Peace. Dave D.
