Black Coffee, Culoe De Song and DJ Fresh were supporting acts for Richie Hawtin at Truth club this past Saturday on the 16th February. The techno legend was also supported by a line-up that included over 23 top local acts including, Digital Rockit, Andi Dill, Phat Jack, Euphonik, Ryan Dent, Dirty Herz, Unsound System and Kid Fonque. Touring all tempos from deep house and dubstep to techno and trance – eclecticism was the key to this varied but complimentary line-up which aims to showcase only the best in club music. Globally recognised for his forward-thinking approach to making and playing electronic music, Richie Hawtin’s long career spans from the germination of his Plus 8 records label in 1990 to his vast repertoire as Plastikman through to his present day role as head of M_nus records and globe-trotting DJ. The Doors opened at 8PM and party goers were offered a plethora of styles and sounds over 5 floors.
