It's like he's doing a cooking show.i love it

[joanperezlozano]

This man talks like a damn scientist of one of my favorite music genres, the way he expresses when talking about his music is the best thing I could have ever seen so far in an artist. Simply the great richie fuckn hawtin.

[ceekay_beats]

Hello Richie. I love your techno sets. Especially the “Decks, EFX & 909” cd. I saw you play in Dublin, Ireland about 20 years ago & really enjoyed it. You did the stereotypical ‘taking the audience on a journey’ dj thing & we all loved it! From what I remember you had the crowd in the palm of your hand & that set is still talked about today within Dublins techno community! Thank You for the Good Times 👍👌😎

[yasennikov]

I like the way you make gestures with your hands while you explain how you combine the sounds. It is like you see music in dimentional proportions.

A lot of "how to" videos by superstar DJs are maddingly vague, not here. Great explanations of what the elements of a mixer are and how to use them get these trippy dj sounds. Thanks so much

[sYdpoint]

"Decks, Efx, & 909" still one of the best and most influential albums in my lifetime <3 Always wanted to say thank you for that one sir, Consider yourself thanked!

[TheNviate]

Wow... He explains it so good that I understand his techniques pretty good I think, but I can't even imagine how to play like this for an hour or so. He's amazing

[racingfalcon]

Richie is & always be phenomenal at creating unique sounds in so many ways. Unlike most DJs that start playing need at least 10-15mins of playing to find their groove then start to get going. ... NOT RICHIE!! He always jumps you into the action from the first minute he's playing. It's a true pleasure listening & enjoying everything he creates. I can vividly remember once he played at Stereo for Halloween weekend. There was a group of costumed puppets dancers that with every move they made fit so perfectly well with the performance. It was as if it was choreographed, when it wasn't at all. Best part was not only how well the sound married the live performance, Richie had no idea what the performers were going to look like let alone how they were going to dance. It was pure magic on so many levels. I think I still have some video footage of it. When I find it, I'll send it to you Richie. Have a spectacular weekend!! Cheers ☺

You speak about the people and what they feel and see. It’s so sad, that 90% of the people just raise they mobilephones in the air and just wanna show where they are. Myself, I go to the dancefloor, close my eyes, feel the music and dance. 😍

[FMPlayer]

This is proper DJ’ing, this guys a genius

[tonybucks]

Been listening to Richie since 1998, he just gets better, he's smart and passionate. Very inspiring human being.

[ieselisra]

Never tired from seeing this This man will be in the music books as pioneer from the electronic dj-live performance

[sarahgledhill]

Perfectly described!! I love how he invites us into his art. Each persons process is their own, but every artist can throw their own angle on it. You may be inspired in a different way once you feel the energy of the environment but your tools, approach is pretty similar. So inspiring!

[electropunk]

From our Minds at the Russel in Detroit was superb and sounded amazing. (Thanks to Paxahau, Mike and Jason for the top notch Void sound as well) Rich will always have my respect, and what he has contributed to Detroit and techno worldwide is priceless. Thank you for countless great sets I've had the privilege to hear since the 90s!

[Scrchio]

True musical genius, no other DJ in the history has pushed the technology boundaries like Richie. What an absolute inspiration and creativity to master so many devices simultaneously like this to create one unified experience. Thank you Richie for being such a great musician and DJ.

[AdamKHeavyBeats]

The depth of sound in the mix is awesome!

[SuperFluidFerroFluid]

This is exactly how i mash together my freestyle sets.. and one guy once told me its more complicated than its have to be, the tracks are already good unless you picked the wrong tracks to begin with, and you should pay more attention to the crowd...
