The internet has been buzzing with rumors that Justice didn't play live at their recent gig at Manchester's Warehouse Project, based on a photo that showed Gaspard Augé working a MIDI controller that mysteriously hadn't been plugged in.

While the levels of schadenfreude have reached epic proportions quite quickly, Justice has shot back with the claim that they indeed noticed soon after the picture was taken that the equipment had not been plugged in and quickly rectified the situation.

As you can see from the evidence below, clearly Augé thought he was doing something with the machine with a black control screen and no power attached at the beginning of their set, while the photos from Warehouse Project's official site shows the screen later on as blue and—presumably—turned back on.

Seems like the official photos have been doctored... cos you don't actually see the plug in, and also, surely he would notice immediately if the screen went dead? and the knobs weren't doing anything to the music????

Wed, 03 Dec 2008we cannot go on and define what is indeed 'Deejaying' or not, about the art of it, etc. beatmatching is just another way to mix two tracks together. the end result is the art of djaying. back in the day there was no pitch, not even direct-drive turntables. it doesn't matter if it's a laptop, a cd, three records or turntables hanging from the ceiling, it's what comes out of those speakers that makes the magic, that is incenerated by the guy or girl behind the booth.

but yes it is pretty... More
