I've never understood the octatrack beyond 'its a fuck off sampler effects unit'. But I see he has two mutant drums which are usually drums and sometimes hi hats, so think overwhelming majority of drums/beats are from those and not the laptop.
It's tricky as, unless digital you can't store patches. Something I'm working on [machine drum beats + it controls a modular sequencer and a multi channel euclidean generator] has been plugged in for about three weeks until I either make up recall sheets or photos/detailed notes. To do a whole set on a modular would be hard work...I could perform it live but it would be have to be alongside vinyl/laptop based tracks.
I'd just like to know what the balance he's used is. There may be a thread on Muff Wiggler

large chunky audio loops on the laptop suggest to me he is playing the modular stuff on top of basic tracks / rhythms triggering midi out of laptop , looks like they are all set out as an arrangement but i might be wrong . i dont see why you would use both unless he couldn't bring his whole modular studio down .....octatrack suggests same thing !
