World famous producer and DJ Richie Hawtin will be taking his project Plastikman on world tour this year, playing three dates in the UK.
Hawtin has spent the last ten years working on his live performance as Plastikman, and now is finally ready to take to the roads as part of Plastikman Live 1.5. The unique show will see the sound, video, and lighting controlled solely by Hawtin, while juggling those tasks with audience interaction. It was the first time the UK will have seen the innovative new live show, which Hawtin says will be re-worked for 2.0 after the end of this world tour.
“I'm incredibly excited to finally take Plastikman on its first standalone tour,” says Hawtin. “These dates will represent the last opportunities for fans to catch Plastikman Live in its current form: the 1.5 version of the show we've spent nearly a year of fine-tuning.
“After that, Plastikman will be returning to the shadows to begin work on a brand new 2.0 concept. The fall tour will be full of surprises, and the performance will continue to be spontaneous and unique for every show – the way I believe live music should be performed in 2011.”
