Over the past twenty years, RICHIE HAWTIN has been one of the electronic music community’s most active participants as a DJ, label owner, producer, performer and an avid contributor to the development of music and performance technology. At Electric Daisy Carnival New York this weekend, he will debut RICHIE HAWTIN Presents ENTER., his curated musical platform featuring some of the leading names in minimal/techno/house today. Joining him at the festival happening at MetLife Stadium this Sunday, May 20 are Loco Dice, Dubfire, Victor Calderone, Magda, Hot Natured (Jamie Jones & Lee Foss), Visionquest and Ambivalent.
Those attending Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas June 9 will get to experience ENTER. with RICHIE HAWTIN along with m-nus artists and other like-minded talent including Dubfire, Loco Dice, Josh Wink, Magda, Seth Troxler, Visionquest, Gaiser (live) and Paco Osuna. Along with Escape from Wonderland October 27 in Southern California, these are the only locations in North America fans will get to experience ENTER. in a festival setting. It will be presented at Creamfields and Tomorrowland in Europe.
RICHIE HAWTIN has also just announced he will introduce his visionary ENTER. concept as his first solo residency in Ibiza. He will take over Thursday nights at the award-winning club Space in Playa d’en Bossa for 12 weeks, starting July 5 through September 20, curating four rooms built on the principles of music, sake, technology and experience. HAWTIN, himself a trained sake sommelier and a huge fan of Japanese culture, is personally importing sake from overseas, recruiting the staff and working with renowned mixologists on a custom sake and shochu based cocktail menu.
RICHIE HAWTIN’s accomplishments range from having been named the “World’s Best DJ” in the most credible electronic music polls to being invited to compose music for the 2006 Torino Winter Olympics to exhibiting a sound installation for the French Ministry of Culture’s Millennium Exhibition in Avignon, France. He has also invested in, endorsed and helped develop some of the most forward-thinking products in the electronic music space including Native Instrument’s pioneering Traktor Scratch software, number one dance music digital retailer Beatport, the Tonium Pacemaker portable DJ system and Allen & Heath’s limited edition custom CTRL:92 DJ mixers—the first ever to be fully Midi-enabled, which both he and his father helped to conceptualize and design. In 2012, RICHIE HAWTIN relaunched his alter-ego Plastikman and launched the PLASTIKMAN LIVE world tour. The show was voted the best live act of 2010 by Resident Advisor readers and also was included in U.K. tastemaker magazine MixMag’s best live dance act shortlist. In conjunction, he released Arkives, a major Plastikman retrospective in multiple formats.
