I don't actually mind him that much although I don't find much of his
music very interesting- I'm not too keen on the crazed Hawtin fanboys
who worship him but then he's probably not too crazy about them
either :)
I can never work out if he's just a nice guy who's pretty clever
about his marketing in order to make himself stand out from the crowd
or if he really believes that "micro mixing" of 1000's of snippets of
tracks and people releasing unfinished work for other people to remix
at home is really the future? He certainly knows how to get people
talking though! You'd better watch out Tom- he might be one of these
weedy looking guys who does Tai Chi and will pull your head off
before you've landed the first blow!

Pioneers of Electronic music vol. 1 - a documentary about Richie
Hawtin
How rock and roll....
uh, maybe im missing something, but what exactly did he pioneer? he
didnt invent acid, he didnt invent minimal techno, he didnt invent
sh*t. all he has pioneered is how to recycle other peoples' ideas and
make various white folks around the world worship you. which is good
for something, i guess. someone should sock that dood. i'll do it if
no one else will.
