Not the one who posted it, but welcome to a decreasingly exclusive club! When I first watched the AdP KEXP performance, it felt like my musical knowledge up to that point was just preparing me for AdP. I've been through micro-tonal (King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, specially their Flying Microtonal Banana album), polyrhythms and time changes (Tool, The Mars Volta, Metallica's St. Anger album, various other bits and pieces), looping (Party Dozen -ish-, Adam Page[0][1][2], various Math Rock bands, primarily Battles), and other general "out-there-ness" (Arthur Brown[3], Frank Zappa, Mr. Bungle[4]).

He had a monthly residency at a pub in the city a long while back, and I reckon I went to see him ten times over the course of a year and each performance was unique. I think they're all recorded on Bandcamp somewhere, hey, yes, here: https://adampage.bandcamp.com/music https://adampage.bandcamp.com/music. I even named one of his songs: "Preventing a future disaster" (from September 2014, although it's misspelled). I find part of the enjoyment of looping music is in the performance itself, the combination of conducting and choreography.
