Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

Underworld Live from TokyoSaturday 24th November 2007
Broadcast Starts: 3pm UK/Midnight Japan
Underworld On Stage: 4pm UK/1am (25th) Japan


On Saturday 24th November, Underworld will broadcast their performance at The Oblivion Ball in Tokyo live and exclusively from their website www.underworldlive.com. The free-to-air broadcast will commence 1 hour before the band take to the stage in Tokyo and will preview footage from the MakuhariArtJam - an installation project by Underworld Tomato and Friends. Members of the underworldlive.com site will be able to exclusively download a dedicated reference movie for the broadcast, allowing them the ability to view the show "full screen". Underworld have been broadcasting free over the internet for many years - be it an impromptu low resolution radio show from a hotel room in a far flung corner of the world, or a TV-resolution audio visual broadcast of a live show - this show from Japan promises to be very different and to further raise the bar.


The Oblivion Ball is taking place at the 20,000 capacity Makuhari Messe in Tokyo and the whole event was conceived and curated by Underworld. On the live stage, there will be performances by 120 Days, The Orb, Simian Mobile Disco and Underworld - with the legendary Andrew Weatherall working his magic between each live performance. The event also sees Underworld and Tomato collaborating on an installation that consists of 5 live painting projects that together make-up a 50 x 7 meter wall of art. Within the venue itself, the installation is a piece of live performance art, at the centre of the event. There is also a cinema that will be showing films such as Danny Boyles' "Trainspotting" and "Sunshine" and Anthony Minghellas' "Breaking & Entering" - films which Underworld played a key role in scoring. The Cinema will also preview a number of short films from the Underworld/Tomato archive.

Bloody awesome!

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

aAAAAAAAY

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

This is great news. I imagine that since the show is on a weekend at a reasonable hour for most people, the streams will be working overtime.

Will the chat room be up and running? -Jason

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

My God, I can actually watch this one! Cheers to UW & Company-- thanks!

What is the channel/IP/etc for the IRC, again? I seem to have forgotten.

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

I had a feeling that they were going to broadcast this. After all of the effort and their past history, it would have shocked me if they ended up not broadcasting it. Thank God my work has given me Saturday off, looks like I'll be waking up early for this one.

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

Train to Tokyo !

Hi everybody

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

dark and long.lyrics....i'm not awake either..

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

it's funny just waking up to see this.
my head is pretty disorganized, i didnt know what i was listening to for a couple of minutes

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

is that you? is that really you?

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

I always loved split screens :D

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

as cool as the visual mixing board is, it's not nearly as cool as when taylor was directing on the fly.

bamboo? no. b-boyandb-girl? oh well it's gone now.

boy boy boy. oh sheesh. lets see how it is live

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

man, even dino 3d had a club mix...
ah well

it's cowgirl now

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

i love that little track b/w 'boy' and 'cowgirl'


THEY better play DARC!

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

yeah that sounded cool, shame it faded out so quickly

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

that rendition of boy boy boy was beautiful.

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

there must be a reason why they decided on the split screens. better to be on the safe side than wasting time and energy on the live directing. rather getting a proper recording of the show. - more to come? hint hint?

well, awesome as always!

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

Ricky seems to be really fine !!!

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

he was even jumping up and down during dark train.

i dont mean to be purely antagonistic here, but everything is working like clockwork and there's not really much deviation from anything. after watching/listening to 5-7 gigs in a row like this it's all starting to get a bit... ho-hum isn't it?

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

i think the setlist is still quite fresh. but the roundhouse broadcast made it just so much more emotional. there's too much going on right now to get a feel of acutally being there. still, can't beat the uw/to.ma.to crew!

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

yeah probably. glam bucket is a fave of mine, lets hope those guitars get loud

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

well the vocals didn't work at the beginning of beautiful burnout

there's also been a lot of keyboard parts and messing around with the vocal samples

but, yeah after a while it does sound a bit samey. best thing to being there though and it's not like I paid anything for it.

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

Perhaps that the Tomato's mosaic is a reason why : you're not really "inside" (even if their work is always a pleasure to watch).

Listen to Tokyo's crowd... I think you've got an answer, don't you think so ?

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

Hahahaha... clockwork!!! I'd love that all the gigs i've seen in the last 20 years were "clockwork" like this... :)

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

this is quite awesome to watch on a chilly saturday morning here in New Jersey.

That version of Boy Boy Boy WAS fantastic. I still think of it as a Depeche Mode song though :P

While TMO is going, I guess the next question is: rowla or kittens? rowla or kittens? i'm going with Rowla with a slight Cherry Pie intro. (i'm grasping i know :D)

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

oof, finally full screen.
it's like finally being let inside after having to look in

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

they bring light in... as usual !!!

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

and Rowla it is!

Re: Oblivion Ball Tokyo Live Streaming
 

what, it just gets boring for an electronic act you know. it's either your computers are working or they arent. DA3D was different than studio versions, there'd be different live versions of kittens, there just seemed to be more willingness to branch into VERSIONS while live, but it hasnt been happening. it's either studio or playing off live ideas from years ago.

rowla now. and back to multi-screen
