Part 2: Paul Oakenfold And The Bourne Sessions: Live At The Winter Music Conference

Feedback from yesterday's MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE blog has been overwhelmingly positive, largely from people who wished they attended the Winter Music Conference in the first place--but also from many dazzled by the video performance they saw here.

One of the most dazzling aspects of Paul Oakenfold's set was the mixture of visuals and rhythm; the superb incorporation of the Bourne Conspiracy game footage and the well-paced rhythm surges of the performance makes the clip you're about to see seem very much more than the sum of its respective parts. You'll see what I mean at around the 11-minute mark.

Continuing the mind-blowing performance of Paul Oakenfold at the recent Winter Music Conference, here's "The Bourne Sessions Act 2."

 

We'll be back soon with the final two parts of "The Bourne Sessions,"  both of which easily match the excitement of what's already been displayed.
