Since I enjoyed Lucien Reden's remix of Rave On Kids by Acid Invaders the other day, I thought you'd like this remix he did of Plastikman's Ask Yourself. Available to download. The remix goes for slow approaching menace - a bit like a remixed version of the Mastermind theme. Try imagining John Humphreys sitting there looking tetchy whilst this plays and its quite funny. Good track, mind. And as a bonus here's a downloadable remix of Green Velvet's Turn It Up . Another slow techno one but more [...]

The Phuturelabs collective are off to catch the legendary Richie Hawtin in Plastikman mode this weekend at the Barras so we thought we'd take a wee wander back to 1993 and one of his finest moments to get us in the mood. It's a classic slab of techno that builds and builds and builds...we'll see you down the front. Plastikman - Spastik This cracking video gives you a wee taster of the Plastikman Live experience:

Ich denke man muss nicht viel sagen, denn wer dieses Plakat nicht in der Stadt gesehen hat, der war entweder nicht draußen in den Straßen oder kann nicht lesen! Das FLY BerMuDa-Festival lockt einmal mal mehr die Kinder der Nacht in den Flughafen Tempelhof. Anlässlich der Berlin Music Days wird auch in diesem Jahr groß aufgefahren und es verspricht nicht zu viel. Da dieses Line-Up wirklich seines gleichen sucht können wir uns leider nicht jedem Künstler widmen, einen jedoch möchten wir ganz besonders hervorheben: Plastikman ! Eine Show die sich man sich nicht entgehen lassen [...]

As we headed towards the O2 arena for Smirnoff Sensation 2011 there was a evident buzz on the tube to the venue with everyone already making friends and getting hyped up. Once we arrived we were escorted to the press area but we could admire the insanely long cue of people dressed in white ready [...]
Electric Zoo can be thought of as the Ultra Music Festival or Electric Daisy Carnival of NYC, and with just over two weeks till the Labor Day event, organizers have finally revealed the schedule. The three-day festival has four stages, so you'll need some time to make a game plan, of course. There's also a mobile site that's perfect for your BlackBerry, iPhone, or Android so you don't have to rely on your sure-to-be-hazy memory once you're there. We also thought we'd remind you of an opportunity at the festival that's just too cool to [...]

Another Electric Daisy Carnival has come and gone, and this time Las Vegas got to be the host of the 3-day event.

LessThan3 has you covered with recaps of some of the best performances of the largest dance festival ever to hit US shores. [...]

Oh boy… Where do we start? Do you remember that scene in Men in Black where Will Smith's character Jay is informed that he is, in fact, not alone in the universe and that aliens populate a sizeable portion of Manhattan? And Tommy Lee Jones' character, Kay, proceeds to give a moving speech about the progression of human knowledge? As Tommy Lee Jones walks away, Will Smith asks him, "Is [joining the Men in Black] worth it?" Kay replies, "Oh, yeah. If you're strong enough." ( Writer's Note: if you haven't seen Men in [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Exclusive dailybeatz , flickr Nearly 100,000 people rang in Detroit's 12th annual Movement Festival this Memorial Day long weekend dancing in the rain in the techno homeland's outdoor Hart Plaza. The record number of attendees was up almost 5,000 from the previous year's record, perhaps indicative of electronic music's slow but steady resurgence in popularity in America after the decline and crack down of many underground dance [...]
The XLR8R podcast series constantly delivers top quality mixes from the best dj's and producers in the world of electronic music and who better to take on their 200th podcast than Mr Richie Hawtin AKA Plastikman .

My most common answer is that Richie Hawtin is, or has become, the extrovert on stage, playing, performing, and partying with/for the audience, [...]
