Richie Hawtin - CLOSE live Set-Up

Experimenting and preparing for another CLOSE show this weekend for a very special anniversary of Sónar Festival celebrating their 25 years of support in electronic music and culture. CLOSE is an ongoing experiment – designed to show how far you can blur the definition of what is a DJ and what is a live performance. For those of you who aren’t at Sonar, we have CLOSE scheduled over the next months with a special series of concert shows in the UK in October including the Roundhouse in London and the O2 Academy in Glasgow.

CLOSE UK Tour tickets are on sale now via Ticketmaster, Gigs & Tours, Ticket Tannoy and Resident Advisor.

Epic set-up, really interesting how you add the live elements to your DJ set-up. It is really inspiring, Love it! I have not had the chance to have a real play on the Model One yet.

Check out his comment tags... never seen that before... smart :)

Fantastic insight. An interesting setup of modular synths being controlled by Ableton and push? That must have taken a very long time to map everything. It must sound incredible in person though.

Music is the "answer" i rest my case!

Please come to Germany with close. I dont understand that you not play close on Connect Festival in Düsseldorf. Its the perfect place to celebrate close. Timewarp and Awakenings together. Say what is bigger than this.

Richie why don’t you make your own vst-hosting performance-centric DAW? Maybe one that deliberately blocks the ability to “pre record” sets?
