He says signing into an electric microphone while playing an electric or acoustic-electric guitar and standing on a stage in front of the crowd with the sound projected from speakers.
Yes, I'm being facetious, but if he REALLY wants a 100% human experience, shrink the room, go full acoustic and play only to small crowds and encourage interaction rather than observation.
I actually love sets like that with artists, especially when you see spontaneous collaborations between artistic minds and talents. I'll go to one of those intimate, acoustic sets and pay 5x what I'd pay to go to any large concert.
- criley2 9y agoTo be fair, Jack does tons of that too. Heck, he's got a refurbished 1940's Voice-O-Matic at his Third Man Records, an old time vinyl recording booth which lets you go in and records 2.5 minutes of audio onto one unique vinyl. He's very much about eschewing as much technology as possible and getting people as close as possible to the sound itself.
- uhhhhhhh 9y agoAgreed. I don't have an issue with this, I think what he's doing is great. I'm just a sarcastic twat. If he's at the point where he can focus his career on what matters to him as an artist and not what the fans want in order to find financial success, then all the power to him. I think its great and if it increases creativity, connection and makes him and others happy, its the right thing to do.
- frogpelt 9y agoIf you think people wouldn't have their phones out in that intimate, acoustic setting you're fooling yourself.
