ill.Gates has been a favorite of WRR for some time, largely in part for his relentless genre-pushing style and quest to spread knowledge around the scene to aspiring producers. In case you aren’t familiar, Dylan’s ill.Methedology website has been a fantastic resource for artists everywhere: supplying them with full length youtube videos, tutorials, templates, and samples to name a few.
Uploaded today is instantly one of our favorites of the bunch, the aptly named “Walk The Plank Routine”. Showcasing his MIDI Fighter 3D controller and remixing Captin Hook’s “Walk The Plank”, he puts on a three minute show demonstrating techniques discussed over at his website. It may look daunting (and it does), but the point Dylan’s trying to show is that with practice you too can do this. All of the tools are presented to you, it’s now up to the aspiring DJ/producer to take it upon his or her self.
In what’s shaping up to be one of the best live electronic tours in recent times, check out ill.Gates and EOTO do their thing at a stop near you coming this March. Keep your eyes peeled for more videos like this from Gates, and if you haven’t already make ill.Methedology a part of your daily reading schedule.
