JEL is a virtuoso of the digital sampler. Many hip-hop producers are expert at using the same tools he's mastered for in-studio production and composing pre-sequenced beats for playback, but few - if any - can match his talent for performing the work of an entire band, live, using only the micro-edited samples he chops into those machines.

Have him pick up a guitar or a saxophone or some other instrument and have him create music from scratch...then I'll be impressed. But honestly, a computer can do this by itself....not impressed.
anyhow, still a great performance, and impressivly done. upvote !
Impressive nonetheless.
I think percussion is the most apt analogy in comparing this to other music - regular players on the drum kit aren't just glorified dance-dance revolutionaries, are they?
Oh fine then: this is definitely fake. That device he's got is just a telephone for people with fat fingers.
....still got to get it to trigger like his though (play entire sample unless re-hit). bah !
