Felix from Hot Chip on Ableton Live

Hot Chip, perhaps Britain’s most refreshing electropop band, are renowned for their inspiring live shows, great songs, innovative videos and DJ skills. After using Ableton Live to compile their DJ Kicks album last year, the band have come to rely on Live as an essential part of their performance and studio setup. We met Felix from Hot Chip to talk about the details of how they use Live and why.
