Sharing one of the best live shows I’ve ever seen, from an outstanding musician, for those who don’t know and might enjoy it
I saw this set live at camp Bisco. The whole crowd just sat down and watched in near silence. It was a really cool expirence.
I got to see this. Twice. It was incredible. A friend took mushrooms and wasn’t prepared for the dark vibes. She had a not so great time, unfortunately. I was drunk and had a blast.
Always love some Amon Tobin, definitely outstanding.
Tobin at home sounds mostly like nice Ninja Tune instrumental hiphop — at least the earlier albums. Tobin live around that time was 10000 watt shoving you around and rattling your head. Which was unexpected.
He opened shows with a track that he gave away free on his website ~2006. I downloaded it and loved it, but iTunes trashed a bunch of songs and fucked up my album art and I’ve never been able to find it again. Internet Archive doesn’t have it and I’m just bummed. Such a banger. Played it at Treasure Island Music Festival.
Alternatively, Discogs has a bunch of singles from 2008 marked as released on AmonTobin.com (better seen in the list view). A bunch of them were rereleased on ‘Monthly Joints Series’, others are probably available elsewhere.
Setlist.fm doesn’t have the list for Treasure Island, but they suggest that the previous concert the same year might’ve been similar. The ‘Delpher’ track is available here, for example.
Was fortunate to see this one live on tour. Awesome!
