This week we talk to the iconic techno musician Richie Hawtin, who never plans his live performances. He crafted his dark, rhythmic tracks in the early days of Detroit’s techno scene and today collaborates with artists and designers, such as Anish Kapoor and Raf Simmons. His journey to mastering his craft required him to confront his shy, introverted nature, find routines to stave off nerves that could derail his performances, and nurture his energy flow.
