Paper Diamond is following up a banger 2013 and huge tours last year with the likes of Excision and Zeds Dead with his own headlining tour set to pop-off this upcoming January. He’s continuing on with his signature blend of trap, hip-hop and his totally unique stage set up and bringing out some new friends on the road with him: LoudPvck, Branchez, Gent & Jawns, and Manic Focus. New songs, new collaborations, new light-show controls, new energy — this dude just doesn’t stay bored for long. And he keeps pushing the envelope of what’s possible in an EDM stage show and I love how he keeps it dynamic and improvised when he’s playing live:
I’m using my iPad on stage to control two computers, one has Ableton to play the music, which then sends a MIDI signal to the second computer, where I can control all of the LEDs and live visuals on stage that will capture the nonstop energy of my set. So basically, I get to represent myself in not just a musical manner, but I get to provide an overall visual experience for my fans as well.
He made a mix and put it out to show off the talent he’s bringing on the road with him, so keep on the lookout for these openers as they blow up around the tour and check out the dates below.
