Looking forward to this. I was just listening to his RA podcast from a few years back.

As a side note, a little geography lesson for me today:
Montpellier, France -> not to be confused with Montpellier, Vermont... unless there's a thriving scene for Laurent Garnier in Vermont

Are you crazy? Garnier is one of the true legends of electronic music. He was here in Porrtugal a couple of weeks ago, his new gig involves him playing other people´s records, but with a "band", one guy playing synth and another various drum-machines and stuff. Mindblowing. Just go.

The Transition guest is a recording of that new gig, Laurent Garnier presents LBS.

Whether we think of this new project as Laurent & Ben & Stephane, Live Booth Sessions or Loud Bass & Samples (all are acceptable apparently), what's clear is that L.B.S will be comprised of Laurent Garnier, Benjamin Rippert and Stephane "Scan X" Dri. The inspiration for the group struck Garnier while on his recent Tales of a Kleptomaniac tour: "It was obvious that after a long period spent touring round some of the biggest festivals, I was going to feel an overwhelming desire to go back to my roots (clubs and records)," he says, "but the idea of finding myself alone behind two decks was impossible. So why not combine the two?" The upshot of this will be Garnier manning turntables and "machines," Rippert playing keys, and Dri on also on machines. The idea is that Garnier will have the freedom to weave other people's music into the set via decks, juxtaposing live renditions of his own material.

"After more than twenty years spent DJing, I really wanted to take it a step further," adds Garnier. "Sometimes, when I see other DJs playing out today I get the feeling that they're bored, that they don't get off on what they're doing anymore. It is very clear to me why the idea behind L.B.S came to life because not only will it give my work a new lease of life, it will also offer a new and very different experience to club goers."
