Richie Hawtin once again was at the controls for BBC Radio 1’s essential mix last weekend, this time round providing a live recording of his set from the 4 story Exchange LA nightclub in Los Angeles. Hawtin’s distinctive style is present from start to finish complete with his signature minimal approach; manipulating tracks in ways that only he would think to do. Expect a mood swinging journey complete with some serious groove.
