<p>This was the third concert in the series and by now the momentum of the idea has really picked up some pace. Tickets for the show sold out almost straight after the <a href="http://shlo.beenhere.com/blog/2007/12/02/folk-meets-beatbox/">concert with Martha and Teddy</a> before we had really done any promotion, which is awesome as it means that people heard about it through word-of-mouth and buzz!</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7TU0EHH38bk&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0xe1600f&amp;color2=0xfebd01" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7TU0EHH38bk&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0xe1600f&amp;color2=0xfebd01" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>This was another show put together against the clock &#8211; I only first met with DJ Yoda to chat through ideas about 2 weeks beforehand, and tickets were already sold out. Yoda was a bit worried at first because he was then away on tour until a few days before the concert, but after a bit of jamming we were coming up with shedloads of ideas.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PRvl7dvklQI&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0xe1600f&amp;color2=0xfebd01" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PRvl7dvklQI&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0xe1600f&amp;color2=0xfebd01" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>The concept of DJ Yoda’s performance is all about scratching video using special DVD turntables. It’s amazing to watch and the extra visual element to scratching really adds to the experience and the understanding of how skilled a scratch DJ really is.</p>
<p><a title="Shlomo and DJ Yoda at the QEH by s_h_l_o_m_o, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/s_h_l_o_m_o/2435973555/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3278/2435973555_73f81d96f4.jpg" alt="Shlomo and DJ Yoda at the QEH" width="404" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>It also meant that we had to do some fairly meticulous preparation as everything has to be burned on to custom DVDs beforehand. We spent a day shooting some clips around the Southbank, and then spent 3 days locked in the lab polishing up the show.</p>
<p><a title="Shlomo and DJ Yoda in the QEH foyer by s_h_l_o_m_o, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/s_h_l_o_m_o/2383815828/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2420/2383815828_e8009fb30e.jpg" alt="Shlomo and DJ Yoda in the QEH foyer" width="333" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>We came up with a technique which means we can do a ‘live remix’ of almost any tune. Yoda has a hundreds of acappella versions of well known tunes&#8230; once he had synched that up with the original video (courtesy of YouTube!) he could then scratch up the original vocals over my remix beatbox version.</p>
<p><a title="DJ Yoda and Shomo by s_h_l_o_m_o, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/s_h_l_o_m_o/2382986307/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2104/2382986307_7353f560fa.jpg" alt="DJ Yoda and Shomo" width="500" height="327" /></a></p>
<p>Hence the ‘collaboration’ with Michael Jackson, aged 7, on a crazy live remix version of ‘Want You Back’, featuring myself looping up the instrument tracks, singing the backing vocals, and all five of the Jacksons dancing on a giant screen behind me!</p>
<p><a title="DJ Yoda and Shomo by s_h_l_o_m_o, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/s_h_l_o_m_o/2383816194/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2396/2383816194_4fa227756d.jpg" alt="DJ Yoda and Shomo" width="500" height="327" /></a></p>
<p>At this point the already wild Friday night crowd at the QEH nearly lost control! They were all up off their seats, dancing in the aisles and down at the front! The party continued with Yoda and friends DJing out in the Foyer until the early hours, and I was chuffed to meet a some audience members who had travelled all the way from places like Newcastle, Nottingham and Bristol to see the show, several who had been at all three of the concerts so far, and loads who already had tickets for all the upcoming ones.</p>
