Ritchie Hawtin's (a.k.a. Plastikman) music has no pop to it. It also requires patience. However, he is one the artists that came out of the Detroit techno scene that is unmistakable.
I had the fortune to be going to Detroit parties when you could dance to Ritchie Hawtin in a warehouse for $10.
Driving through the dark ruins of Detroit and listening to this music very loud is a wonderful thing. I don't think this music would be what it is if it weren't for cold Midwest industrial winter nights.
BTW, Ritchie is actually from Windsor, but it's just our Canadian suburb.
