I am having a ton of trouble finding a live Matrix/Soundboard version of "Lost In The K-Hole". It is my favorite song of all time and there are no live versions of this song on Youtube or on any released live album. If anyone could help me find the best live Matrix/Soundboard version of "Lost In The K-Hole" I would be eternally grateful.<br>

I'd love to hear it too, but K-Hole has literally never been played live. And if it has, it doesn't exist on any known recording. They typically don't play many of their down-tempo tracks in concert, especially not between 95-97 which were some of their hardest hitting sets, and the only time Lost In The K-Hole would have probably been played live.

Maybe they'll do a DYOH 20th anniversary in 2017 with a tour featuring the whole album live? That'll be the day!

They definitely played a live version of Lost In A K-Hold @ Coachella in 2002:

Apr 27 2002

• Come With Us
• Music: Response
• Galaxy Bounce
• Loops of Fury
• Star Guitar
• It Doesn't Matter
• Block Rockin' Beats
• Out of Control
• Hey Boy, Hey Girl
• It Began in Afrika
• Lost in the K-Hole
• The Test

Perhaps someone has this set on Soundboard?&nbsp; Any soundboard would be great.&nbsp; Anyone?<br>

Okay, that setlist is mad wrong, no idea who uploaded that to Setlist.fm. Galaxy Bounce hasn't been played live (except for DJ sets), Loops hasn't been played since 1997, It Doesn't Matter wasn't played this year, Block Rockin Beats came after Music: Response, It Began In Afrika>Out Of Control>Star Guitar is the proper order, Hey Boy Hey Girl was always done right before The Test as a near-mashup, it's missing The Sunshine Underground (always played), Hoops (always played), Setting Sun (always played) and Under The Influence (almost always played), and lastly Lost In The K-Hole hasn't been done live before.

The Chemical Brothers tour with a fairly rigid setlist that evolves steadily over the course of touring - performances of the songs will differ but the order of songs doesn't change much. Shows will vary due to allowed set lengths (shorter at festivals, usually they drop the encore) and they're known to occasionally drop tracks (Brixton 2002 dropped UTI) or add unexpected ones generally in the encore (My Elastic Eye was famously played at Le Zenith in 2002). But they've literally never been known to change the setlist that drastically for a single concert, except in very special cases such as The BBC Proms in 2007, where Tim Burgess and Beth Orton joined them for The Boxer and the single performance of Where Do I Begin.

Sorry to be a needle to your balloon but it's just not out there. According to Coachella Recordings there is a audience recorded copy of the concert but it's not circulating, whoever did it is holding onto it privately, so your luck's as good as mine getting a copy of it. Share it if you can! But even if you can find it, K-Hole's really not going to be on it.

They often change one track at one or two concerts, near the end of the set, so it's plausible

I've heard so many Chem live recordings and till now I've yet to hear Lost in K-hole. Not even snippets, elements, little vocal samples or anything from the track have been used. Maybe something have been used in transitions but I've yet to catch it. Good luck finding this, just like the track its lost somewhere in the k-hole. Dig deeper.

I'll also chime in here: I've heard Chemical Brothers live sets from three different decades and I've never heard, in any one of them, Lost in the K-Hole played.

However, I'll also agree with the others in that it might exist--keep searching!

I would certainly love to hear it if you find a recording of it.

2002 must be the same as in 2001 so the proper must be Out of Control > Temptation => Star Guitar

There's only a handful of surprise tracks in their arsenal per touring year. 2005 had Got Glint, Chemical Beats and Hold Tight London, 1999/2000 had Flashback and Leave Home, 2002 had Got Glint and My Elastic Eye. So it's a little less than plausible. I'd still love to hear this song knocked around live I'm pretty certain it hasn't happened in a recorded set yet.

Temptation was implied! Also they never played live in 2001, as far as I know, aside from DJ sets.

Oh I love how we shine in here as dorky Chemical Brothers fans. HA!

I've just fallen in love with My Elastic Eye again, that live version is big!



Did this dubstep/trap thing already start in 02? or where the brothers just ahead of their time with this record?

Also, i know that they played Morning Lemon in 2005 at least one time.

Yes, I witnessed that myself in Berlin back in the day. And as far as I can recall, it was "due to" the high demand on this forum and a poll that went on at that time. It put a huge grin on my face when they played it right after GYH.

P.S. the above video displays as "unavailable" on yt.

It is what it is: a superb song on a even more superb album! Uhhhha, Ya ya ya ,Ya ya ya, Ya ya ya, Ya ya ya!

And the hell: it's not frigging dub step!!!

Ah, but it's close, maybe even arguably it is dubstep. It has a lot of the elements you'd find in dubstep--"wub wub" bass line, 1/2 time breakdowns, break beat...

It is not as erratic as dubstep. But some parts are definately dubsteppy.

that dubstep comment was not meant as an insult, i totally adore this track. I wouldn't be suprised if some dubstep artist got his or her inspiration from My Elastic Eye.

*puts on CWU again*

Well its taken as an insult. to even suggest that chems music comes close to a dubstep created by skrillex (more or less you're pretty much saying this ) is absurd by fluke.&nbsp;

Skrillex don't produce dubstep, it's brostep.
