Transmutation Live is a live album by experimental rock band Praxis, recorded during a performance in Zurich, Switzerland, in the summer of 1996.[1]
The album features the lineup of bassist Bill Laswell, guitarist Buckethead, drummer Brain and Invisibl Skratch Piklz, the Bay-Area collective of turntablists DXT, Q-Bert, Mix Master Mike, Shortkut, and DJ Disk.
The album's four tracks are labeled simply as Movements 1 to 4 and are predominantly ambient soundscapes that frequently give way to heavy metal grooves.
