Clubplanet Interviews Laidback Luke

VIA ClubPlanet
by Marcos Colón, 06.28.2010

We still remember the first time we caught one of Laidback Luke’s DJ sets. It was his first appearance at Mansion nightclub in South Beach, and we had no clue what we were in for. The young Dutch DJ-producer wowed the sold-out crowd with his crafty skills, playing everything from groovy house tracks, and even dropping in some Daft Punk for those in the crowd who weren’t up to par with everyone else’s musical knowledge. Two years later, he’s at the top of his game and headlining some of the biggest clubs in the world. He’s currently on a massive global tour, playing an insane amount of European dates, as well as highly anticipated shows at clubs Space in Miami, Pacha in New York City and the infamous Electric Zoo festival in NYC.

Clubplanet recently caught up with Laidback Luke while he was on the road and chatted about his current tour schedule, his highly anticipated party at Pacha NYC, and what we can look forward to from him for the remainder of the year.

Help Richie Hawtin!

VIA Clash Music

Seminal Canadian techno producer Richie Hawtin has had his laptop stolen from a hotel room in Paris.

Deeply influenced by the second wave of Detroit techno, Richie Hawtin helped establish the music as a global art form. Performing live, the producer has pushed technology to its limits under the guise of Plastikman.

However this has made him increasingly reliant on technology. In a nightmare scenario for the producer and fans alike, Richie Hawtin’s laptop and other equipment were recently stolen from a hotel room in Paris.

Breaking the news on his Facebook page, Richie Hawtin has offered a €2500 reward for any information relating to the theft.

Richie Hawtin is touring across Europe, and was completing a number of French dates when the theft occured. In total, the producer lost his iPod, two iPads and the Plastikman live iMac, containing the loops, samples and music for his live set.

The producer is aiming to play a series of British dates shortly. Richie Hawtin is set to perform in the Slam Tent at T In The Park, with the techno don refusing to cancel any dates as a result of the theft.

Let’s hope he had everything backed up!

Pacha NYC sits with Jon Cowan

How’s Ibiza treating you? Tell us about your residency out there, and how it’s changed since last year.
Ibiza, thus far has been great. IMS(International Music Summit) is one of the most productive music conferences of the year for me. I spent a lot of time there this year with your head boss man Eddie Dean and we went to most of the openings together. It’s such a refreshing way to do a conference where it really is about the business. IMS leads up to the opening week in Ibiza so there are no parties during the actual conference. At IMS you every major manager, artists, tech companies, and marketing companies, etc all in a very inviting setting. For me it really sets up my year at IMS. For anyone looking for a conference about the business it is highly recommended. As for the Pacha residency, it has started off absolutely amazing! I did my first show on Saturday May 29th which was the opening Saturday night of the big room at Pacha. Unfortunately, yet fortunate for me, Gui Boratto had to cancel– which allowed me to have a 4 hour set main room- which could not have gone better. I had the chance to close the room as well (after M.A.N.D.Y), and played back to back along with fellow resident Andy Baxter to close the night. It went so well that my residency grew from 4 to 6 shows this year (and more potentially in the works not only at Pacha but at some of the beach clubs such as Ushaia) Although in previous years I’ve done the opening and closing parties, this year I am now officially a Pacha Ibiza resident.With shows coming up with the likes of Sasha and Luciano, I am more than excited. The Island also seemed to have a special buzz this season. I’ve been to the last 4 opening weekends yet this year something special was in the air. The clubs were packed, the vibes were great, the hierbas is flowing, and personally I can’t wait to get back for my next show July 2nd with Sasha & Sander Kleinenberg and then again on July 16th. It’s going to be a great summer season.

Hernan Cattaneo mixes the next Renaissance: Master Series

Renaissance: The Master Series
Hernan Cattaneo – Parallel

Hernan Cattaneo presents another exciting chapter in the Renaissance Masters Series with a brand new approach…

Hernan’s return to the Masters Series in 2010 brings with it an exciting new development. This year the ever-creative South American has slowed things down to present a distinctly cosmic disco-esque take on his inimitable sound.

“I felt it was time we took a fresh direction,” says Hernan, “But, although it was always going to be alternate, I wasn’t sure just what this direction should be. So, I locked myself away and started going through loads of music for inspiration. It wasn’t till I pitched a Henry Saiz track down (and it sounded brilliant) that I hit upon the idea of dropping everything back 15-20 BPMs on the first disc.”

Entitled ‘Day’, disc one is a beautiful, shimmering ride through Cattaneo’s audio world, its musical style the perfect antithesis of two’s club-inspired ‘Night’. But what’s all the more remarkable is how he’s also managed to work five (out of a whopping eleven) original productions, remixes and edits into the mix – no mean feat considering the unique nature of the material. “I know there’s a big debate amongst dance music fans about exclusives on compilations right now, but for me it’s a purely positive objective. Just as with the alternate style of the ‘Day’ mix, it’s another way of distinguishing the album from a live club set, a statement to the fact a lot more effort has gone into the project as whole,” he challenges. “I’ll not deny working outside of the traditional comfort zone of 125 (approx) BPM was easy, but between commissioning tracks from some of my favourite producers / friends, using or adapting my own productions and sourcing some amazing music (like the fantastic Sigur Ros track that closes the ‘Day’ mix – it’s such a great song!), I think it came together really well.”

Although ‘Night’ finds Hernan in more familiar territory, it draws upon the remaining six exclusives to ensure his fresh authorship and feel of the mix continues throughout, and comes backed by tantilising gems from likes of Way Out West, Henry Saiz, Quivver and Tone Depth, to name but a few.

Renaissance: The Masters Series – Hernan Cattaneo, Parallel – is out July 5th
