  • After recording, sampling, cutting, and splicing over 100 tracks down to their most basic components, I ended up with a collection of over 300 loops, ranging in length from 1 note to 4 bars. I then started to recreate and reinterpret each track, putting the pieces back together as if an audio jigsaw puzzle- using effects and edits in between each piece. This 53 minute piece, consisting of over 70 tracks and 31 ID points, represents what those loops became, and how their interactions created something that had not existed before. Richie Hawtin

    I don't miss the 'old Richie Hawtin' or Plastikman for that matter... Richie is a person... a wonderful person, and an artist who immerses himself in anything that he chooses to do. These experiences change him as a person, he grows and so does his art... it's unavoidable. When i see/hear his work i see someone's journey... and his work travels me back and forth in time... through my own journey... and this is so special... and would have never been possible with sheet one or de9 in isolation...

  • @Dekkie61
    @Dekkie61 Před rokem +1

    I remember this coming out quite vividly. We'd been following Richie closely and the change seemed extremely sudden to me; the few times we saw him in '99 & '00 he was still in the Minus Orange mode: slamming Techno, Disco/Electro/EBM references galore (Join in the Chant! You Spin Me Right Round). Techno was becoming Pretty boring (speeding up, everybody converging to the same production techniques).
    None of the tracks he plays here were particularly new, it's just that most people simply weren't paying attention.
    And when this came out it was an absolute bomb and the whole entire scene followed. Now everyone was playing minimal and the guys Richie played on DE9 were suddenly stars. I know that's a bit reductive, but that's how I experienced it.
    Problem was, everybody followed and instead of experimenting how you could create great music with minimalistic techniques, producers went: 'what must I do to sound like Richie' and boom, Minimal had turned into a convention and everything was boring again.
    And now we're in 2023 and we're seeing both faster techno ánd minimal making a come back. Let's wait until somebody thinks of something new again, and we'll be in for another great ride.

    This, Decks FX and 909 and Mixmag Live are sublime, a DJ completely at the top of his game. I agree that "DE9: Transitions" was boring, not a patch on this. Hawtin is Jekyll and Hyde in many ways, he has the capacity to be mind-blowing (he's in that mode here) or dull beyond grief, but when he's on form he's truly special.

    went on a nostalgic hawtin rabbit hole tonight - i see the same comments on every video. even back in the 90s people were complaining hawtin was never going to come close to plastikman again. lets all be honest here, not many rocks a show like hawtin, and not many ever will. outside of plastikman i've always thought his production was pretty weak... but his live performances are second to none. this music just doesn't make sense unless its being played in a proper environment.

    Never knew about the splicing amount method, really cool and must of been a great mission. Reading the "closer to the edit" article on it now in a 2001 Future Music Magazine. Fascinating stuff and an ingenious way of pioneering a new way of DJing on a whole new performance level back then.

      I did this with a Drum n Bass mix around 2002 called Endgame. I called it a reconstruction; breaking each track down into its constituent loops and parts, and then almost reconstructing each track into a different piece and then mixing it all together. I had about 600 loops for a 72 minute mix. It was so much fun.

      & now the worthless millennials have the best sound systems capable of much greater variety and tall they can produce these days is lame dub-step gangster rap and repetitive xylophone and voice synths.
