The easiest way to see authenticity is to seek out producers doing shows. They may play a lot of their own music as well as a curated set of other music.
There's an old interview of BT in the 1990s where he thoroughly debunks that he is a DJ even when playing other people's music. He incorporates as much live control and variation as he can handle. BT is a neat guy.. he restored a Fairlight (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairlight_CMI https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairlight_CMI) as well as computers like the IBM PS/2 model 70 to use in his productions so he's a bonafide technologist aside from being a phenomenal classically trained musician.
Matt Darey is another that does a good job, invites the vocalists to perform live whenever he can. His radio show is my favorite thing to listen to when doing software development. He's been working with Dolby to incorporate Atmos into new and old productions so he's pushing the state of the art. https://soundcloud.com/mattdarey https://soundcloud.com/mattdarey
- taneq 9y agoI'm a long time fan of BT but the one time I saw him live, it was 3AM in a prime DJ slot and he just wanted to show off his turntablism. Which was technically great, but it was 3AM and we just wanted some banging tunes.
