When I mentioned his Global Top-100 DJs performance I noted that Guetta is ahead of the pack in figuring out this new artform of broadcast performance. Here he does it again. The setting is less impressive than the Louvre and you don't get the artwork visuals, but whoever is putting this piece together is clearly playing with the form. You get camera angles you wouldn't ever see in a traditional stadium show, and there are interesting video overlays.
Guetta also has it down - he's playing to the (main?) camera the way he'd play to an audience. Most of the dialog this time is in French and I can't keep up but you'll get the gist. He's talking to you, the viewer, making a kind of eye contact that, again, you wouldn't see in a live show where the performer is usually looking down from the stage at the tops of the audience's heads.
I like this form and I hope it continues when live shows come back.
And if you're just here for the music pick most any track off this set and it's good. Probably my favorite is either his mash-ups or the "Future Rave Remix" of Titanium (the last track of the set).
