    Arthur Cayzer and Jamie Roberts' sets as Karenn ride the fine but thrilling line between success and failure. Since teaming up in 2011, they've embraced the risk-reward danger of improvised performance, trading the safety net of preparation for the high stakes of thinking on their feet.
    Their RA Session sees Cayzer and Roberts working with a pared-back setup-at least by their usual standards. Across 20 minutes we see them using less sound sources and more effects, which Cayzer says has led to a "wider palette of sounds." It shows one of techno's best live acts at the height of their powers.

    In my opinion, this way of delivering electronic music is the most correct, since it is live, by this, these guys explain to the public how electronic music is written and there are not many such bands ... I think that the older generation, which in its “time” is not had an idea of such a sound due to the lack of appropriate "instruments", if you show this record or any other from the live of this duet, there will be many people who say: "it is not as simple as it seems."

      jeff mills has a video making pure techno on just a 909 so the oldheads could do it too but they just didn't embrace it like these newer guys are (AFAIK i could be wrong.) DJing, decks have their place but this is great esp for people who go clubbing solely to see the artist! it's much more of a connection, like seeing a live rock band jamming. There's also guys like Fjaak who don't improvise from scratch live but play their tracks on their actual gear.
