A leading figure in electronic music and minimalist art, Richie Hawtin is a versatile artist who is constantly reinventing himself. He is an outstanding dj, an eminent producer, a technophile who has been involved in the manufacture of mixing desks, software, and synthesisers on numerous occasions, the owner of the Minus label, which mixes music, technology, and art, the creator of his own saké, the co-creator of a fashion collection, and a contemporary art enthusiast. His extreme versatility makes him an unbeatable curator for the first ‘A Night with’ in the history of Nuits sonores Brussels at Bozar. Richie Hawtin presents a drawing on his many influences, including the 1960s Minimalist movement of Steve Reich and Philip Glass, Miles Davis jazz, and Detroit techno. It’s already shaping up to be a historic evening.
