Hear Richie Hawtin’s Return To Full-On Techno On His New Audiovisual Mix Album
'Close Combined (Glasgow, London, Tokyo - Live)' is out now.
Richie Hawtin just released a new audiovisual mix album.
Close Combined, named after his Close live show—and created in partnership with Telekom Electronic Beats—shows the artist performing his hybrid DJ/live from three different perspectives. Drawing on footage from last year’s shows in Glasgow, London and Tokyo, the visuals give an up-close perspective on everything Hawtin does during his set.
In the album’s press release, Hawtin explains the underlying concept of Close:“I believe that as our scene has become more popular, the definition of DJing has become more narrow. I want to be as transparent as possible in how, why and what I play in order to bring focus onto the intuitive spontaneity that is at the heart of a great DJ performance. ‘CLOSE COMBINED’ continues my exploration into my own creative tendencies and invites my fans along to get closer to the instinctive impulses that drive my creativity.”
