I can't find that article on the new DE9. Does anyone have it? When is it to be released?

I love him for his hair. and for his bass.

He was in Boston last night... I missed it due to the shitty fact that any Avalon Managed club blows... 19+... im 18... two years ago i was getting in, new management sucks....


but other than that Hawtin is nasty... love the vibes his mixing gives

Late october I think

Thanks! I can't wait.

I don't know who I like better. Garnier or Hawtin. Hawtin is dirty twisted, while Garnier is penetrating and deep. Those two should have been brothers. They need to produce a love child who mixes a bit of both. Or maybe that love child already exists? Who is it?!

I can't say I really approve of this minimal-trend Richie has been spearheading lately. While it is enjoyable to a certain extent (I like some of the tunes that have resulted from it), this quote from another forum I frequent (translated loosely from Norwegian by yours truly) sums it up quite nicely:

quote:

It is particularly terrible to witness the decay of Richie Hawtin. Once he was some whacko geek from Canada who made sick hypnotic acid and warehouse hymns such as Substance Abuse and Krakpot. Nowadays he's an over-stylized lecher who delivers one dull set after another via the latest in Seamless And Fucking Boring Mixing-gadgetry, Final Scratch or whatever the hell it is that he uses to bore his audience to death these days. "Man, you can really hear that this guy buys some really fucking boring records", was the way an acquintance of mine in Berlin put it when commenting on the fact that Hawtin knows the staff @ Hardwax (record store in Berlin), and as such gets to listen to records on their system.

Because Krakpot isn't minimal or "boring" either?

Originally posted by kid nyce your avatar bothers me greatly... sasha does not suck...i'm guessing you think otherwise because he uses abelton live to mix. if so, i laugh at you because at his age and with the amount of time he's been in the scene, I don't think he needs to prove to anyone that he can mix. i've seen him play at Twilo NYC back in 99-2000 and he would mix literally without his headphones. He'd cue in with his monitors, that's pure skill right there. So I hope people aren't biased because he's gone digital with abelton, if you notice, his beats are untouchable right now. he's already proven he mastered mixing, Sasha has always been ahead of the scene, he will always be ahead of the scene.

your full of shit

31st of October / 1st of November

quote:

Richie Hawtin has been working on his next release, DE9: Transitions at his studio in Berlin. With the use of new recording advances and automation techniques, Hawtin uses his new found freedom to expose a new area of the mix, that of the 'transition'. DE9:Transitions blows the idea of the conventional DJ mix out of the water and not only explores the traditional musical 'transition' in time & amplitude (X and Y) of Sound, but also in the depth (Z) of Space & Perception, opening up the DJ mix for the first time into a fully encompassing, surround sound (5.1) environment. DE9: Transitions has been from start to end, constructed, and composed to be a completely immersive experience, allowing you, the listener, to get further into the heart of it all... and this time, even closer to the edit. To fully maximise the realisation of this concept DE9: Transitions will be released in Sept 2005 (novamute/Minus) on CD & DVD, including both Stereo and 5.1 Surround Sound versions, as well as high resolution audio versions and accompanying visuals. Richie Hawtin will preview DE9: Transitions in 5.1 surround sound for the first time at Sonar, Barcelona 2005.

My take on... (various mixes planned, updated when I can be arsed)

That's kinda the point, isn't it. Take Krakpot, Minus Orange or Call It What You Want and then compare it to say, the stuff on Minimize to Maximize. The contrast is jarring, and he has done and can do so much better.

Yeah, I see what your saying. But take anyone who's never heard of the guy and play Krakpot and I could also understand them to think it's the most boring, watered down production as well.

I don't know. It's hard comparing minimal. How do you object? It's hard to find what you like/dislike of a source that's minimal or barely there in the first place.

Personally, I can't listen to much Plastikman. But I do so love Hawtin. They are two complete, contrasting worlds to me. Talk about a man with multiple personality!
