Critic Consensus
Based on 16 concert reviews, the critic consensus is that Emancipator is rated as a decent live performer, with shows that lack distinction. Emancipator concert reviews describe live shows and performances as harmonious, mellow, atmospheric, and layered.
To some, it must seem like this young electronic producer came out of nowhere. Emancipator (Douglas Appling) played his first live show in July 2009, opening for Bonobo at the Roseland Theater.
Emancipator (aka Doug Appling) shared the stage last night with classical violinist Ilya Goldberg playing to a swelled crowd at Victoria's Sugar Nightclub.
Appling has always pulled more from Nujabes or even the String Cheese Incident than from his contemporaries – and his lush, atmospheric sound finds new footing on Baralku.
