Richie Hawtin - Special Music Masterclass
Tue, 22 Nov 2016 17:00:00 GMT
The University of Huddersfield is hosting a one off special event exclusively for its staff and current students. On Wednesday 23 November at 3.15pm, the world renowned DJ Richie Hawtin will give a masterclass on Electronic Music Production.
Richie Hawtin is British-born and Canadian-raised. He is the business mind behind Plus8 and MINUS Records, nurturing a plethora of talent from Speedy J in the early 90s to Gaiser in the 2010s. He is also known as Plastikman, maintaining an underground agenda of avant-garde electronica over six albums. His critical acclaim spans the creative realm of the fine art community to the technological vanguard. Meanwhile, as a performing artist, he is constantly pushing conceptual frontiers, moving things forward, welcoming as many as he can to ideas and experiences that would have seemed pure science fiction when he began his career.
This is a unique opportunity where you will be able to ask Richie any questions you may have about his work and career.
This event is free to attend but places are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis. To secure your place please visit eventbrite. The password to pre-register is ‘musictech2016’.
