I just downloaded a set called Matthew Dekay Band LIve at afterhours street parade 7-8-2004.

This is the first time I have heard his band....This is really amazing stuff...I definatly dig the live instruments played with dance music......Really kool stuff......

Anyone know more about them??? Is dekay playing guitar??

What kind of instruments are they using?

Heard of the band but never heard any live sets. How is it.

sounds like guitar, bass, and drums.....higher thoughts sounds great with instruments.....i am really digging this

I started a similiar thread some time ago too...nobody knew of any sets besides this one sadly. I really enjoyed the live elements in the mix and definately need more. :P

Hey nobody knows Matthew Dekay for me his the best progressive dj and producer of Netherlands, he starts playing live sets with a real band since last year I think, and he use some guitars and a real drumkit and keybords also. He made excellent music.

Any chance of downloading this set EXCEPT slsk?...

I agree, it really adds so much to the music....Its pretty wild hearing "higher thoughts" with real instruments.....

Re: Matthew Dekay Band

I really like what I have heard about the MDK Band. His production and DJ sets are great and then hreaing some if it with live instruments adds some great flavour.

yeah dekay rocks :RockOn: reminds me of Santana with the guitar in there :D

This is what I call a real musician.. MDK really knows how to do and play music, great musician!

CHEERS

Yeahh! Matthew Dekey is really a top dj! His performance in Stockholm this summer was 9/10.

I LOVE the slappin bass in Higher Thoughts.. so funky! Thanks for sharing this.. hope to grab that set soon.

Yessss The rock is great!!!!!!! :RockOn: :Naughty:

Re: Matthew Dekay Band

Yo yo. I saw The Matthew Dekay Band in Amsterdam last spring. Very nice. Let's hear it for Dutch prog :Respect: ...

Re: Matthew Dekay Band

Matthew Dekay: Last year it was just the kick-off of the band, to get know each other a bit better. To work as a full band is like being a part of an organization, it's not like DJing. With all the different personalities, all the egos it's very difficult sometimes. We switched a couple of musicians in the band a couple of times which was very annoying. Finally you want to finish your project and show it to the people. It's such a shame but it's gonna take time. Now I'm very satisfied with the people who work with me in the band. We have a percussionist, a guitar player, a bass guitar player, two singers...
