Hongjoong explains his NO1 intro process and a concert mishap in NYC

Credit @lovelifebeauty_ for the translation

Since I have full control over the stage in Part 3 of the concert, I was really worried at first. When I talked to the Pro Tools engineer, Eden hyung, and the audio team, there was talk about whether to do hand-sync or not. I said, “If I have to hand-sync, I’d rather not do it.” I didn’t want to do that. Even if there was risk, I wanted to do it properly, because this concert isn’t just about me. They found a way to make it work, and now the concert setup is safe - as long as I don’t mess up. There are no technical issues; it’s just on me to execute correctly.

That’s why the length of the intro doesn’t change. The BPM stays the same. I’m making different sets using the exact same BPM. If the length were to change, it would make it hard for the lighting and other effects teams to stay in sync, since all the sound is coming from me. So I’m creating different intros within the same BPM. As the number of sets grows, there are genre limitations, and I’m not sure yet how to keep it interesting, but I’m trying my best to show everything I’ve prepared.

Now that everything’s done, I can share this behind-the-scenes story. At the New York concert, there was a moment when the audio system cut out briefly. I heard there was an electrical issue inside Citi Field. Upon review, the issue actually started during my performance. If you rewatch the video, you’ll notice the PA sound - the one going out to the speakers - cuts out briefly here and there. The sound stopped and restarted multiple times, just for a moment each time.

What was critical, though, was that from the start of my performance, my in-ear monitors weren’t working. It wasn’t my DJ gear’s fault. Apparently, there were power issues within Citi Field. Usually, I listen through my in-ears, but since they weren’t working, I relied on the stage monitors. That was okay at first, but my performance includes going down into the crowd. I went down and was like, “What do I do now?” But since I was with the fans, I ended up looking at their mouths to follow along (laughs), passing the mic to fans (laughs), handing it over to ATINYs and making it work like that.

So, yeah - those kinds of things are also part of the charm of live concerts.

His in-ears weren't working and Hongjoong relied on his wits to complete his set...what a pro!!
