At System Soundbar in January of 2004. I remember the last time I had seen him he played really horribly. He started off the same way on this night with very go-nowhere, boring minimal techno. The place was absolutely packed too. The most packed I had ever seen System. All my friends left because it was too packed, but I opted to stay.

...I agree with Kaniz that he in the past has been pretty hit or miss. Although the last 5 or 6 times I've seen him he's been at least good, but usually really good. I think it has to do with the fact that he's drinking again lol. Drunk Richie = better set.

I remember that System night. I sat there listening to him try so hard and he was totally not hitting it right. I stayed till the end. Sat at the front until he started to feel his music again and drop some better sounds.

LOL! Drunk Richie = better set. That's so true.
What can also be true is: Us drunk = Richie sounding better too

For me he's been hit or miss too but I will say he gives his all and I have great respect for a man that honours his craft. Since I'm not a fan of all things mainstream or tv...hearing his name mentioned on Oprah would never be the deciding factor. It's what my ears, mind and pulse says when I hear him live.

There are so many great dj's out there and a lot of minimal tech in the industry. Richie Hawtin as #1 for me...I'm not so sure.

Is Hawtin at the Guverment that weekend?

I may need to lift my Guv ban to go see him - haven't seen him in awhile, and I think it's less hassle to put aside my Guv distaste then it is to do a road trip to montreal to see him at piknik.

For anyone willing to make the trip..

He is doing a double header in NYC at Love.

FRIDAY JUNE 26TH
RICHIE HAWTIN [MINUS - BERLIN]
ALL NIGHT LONG EXTENDED SET

SATURDAY JUNE 27TH
RICHIE HAWTIN [MINUS - BERLIN]
AMBIVALENT [MINUS - NEW YORK]
BAREM [MINUS - BUENOS AIRES]

Both parties will be bananas.

I think capacity at Love is around the 150/200 mark... and the club actually feels underground.

Just thought I would share.

Richie is and always will be the real deal.

Posted by jad on Jul-06-2009 17:42:

He's definitely one hell of a dj.. Toronto promoters have to work on booking him more often, and giving him better time slots.

Posted by cmccann87 on Jul-06-2009 17:58:

^^^^ Much agreed !

Posted by Mach X on Jul-07-2009 08:31:
