Having changed electronic music’s live performance game once, 2020 sees Giuseppe Ottaviani primed to do it again. Using his Live 2.0’s ‘studio-in-a-suitcase’, the last few years have seen the Italian create the music (ultimately destined for his 2019-released ‘Evolver’ album) in-club, real-time. Into the new decade, he’s upped Live’s tech game again, advancing it to give the musician near limitless control over each & every sound he delivers.

“While its previous version was all about creating new music live on stage,  Lives 3.0 is about individualizing the performance of the music that the previous version helped birth. Performing a track generally means you can play it a number of different ways. With 3.0 though, that’s rendered near infinite. Adding or subtracting sounds depending on the setting, time of the night or read of the crowd – every track played can – and will – take on a new profile, effectively being tailor ‘remixed’ to that moment.”  

With 3.0 the two keyboards and the drum machine are raised up high, which will naturally bring a far greater connection between what the audience sees and what the audience hears. Throughout 2020, at festivals and arenas around the planet, Giuseppe will bring the tracks you love, albeit sounding studio-box-fresh and with the additional anything-can-happen thrill of live performance. Edging musician and machine that much closer together, Live 3.0 rolls out Q1, 2020.
