Sorry, It was "Radioactive" from Spearhead not Franti. 1 step removed...

Sounds better live. To my ear there is a lot more warmth with the live
element. Crowd and visuals give added appeal. While you're in that
time
period you don't have a video of that impromptu jam you did with Mike
Franti by any chance?
Wait, what?
I've worked with a few people who've worked with Franti (that's kind of
inevitable around the Bay Area), but not with him directly.
Here it is, played live:

I was playing playing bass and keyboards simultaneously there; our
bass
player had another gig that night. My Linux
laptop was behind me, not
seen; this was after I'd set up the MIDI keyboard to control all the
synths. But it was right before I set up buttons on the Novation to
switch
patches quickly, so I was twiddling knobs to
cycle through them.
Synths/tools played in the video are fluidsynth, jack-rack, jconv,
many
LADSPA plugins, nekostring, and AMS.
We were set up on stage wrong; the drummer and I couldn't see each
other,
which annoyed both of us, and there were all
kinds of missteps because
of
that. But this is the best live video I have of
that peice.
If you enjoyed the studio version, you might like the live version
too.
