Definitely seems like a partial band here, with live drums being played over the occasional loops. The second song (Faded Love) is an interesting amalgam with the vocoded vocal sections and Karl singing in his more natural/normal voice (as opposed to his often pushed MK1 style).

Have the sense it was more Rick and Darren doing the early MK2 tracks on their own, with Karl dipping in and out around the edges and not really getting it yet (as his book covers some). Could see this being more a side tour with the old band for money as mentioned. ME with a band is interesting - definitely more in MK1 style, but can see the change up starting.
