  • vai te matar!

  • wicked

  • Best stoned music EVER

  • @temporaryguy FUCK YES

  • It's from a scene from Tarkovsky's STALKER.

  • God, what a remarkable video.

  • the mester

  • can you upload in 480 or higher plz??? :)

  • not trippy at all

  • one bullet in tha head

  • yeah yeah yeah!!! richie you're drive head during the travel!!!

  • tripinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn:X­

  • a kind of brainwash song, but good !

  • this guy does so much acid

  • in this video he is not richie, here..he is Plastikman!

  • @SoVy17 so true ;]

  • hey richie, when you comin back to ann arbor for another lecture? 

  • Your still the best Richie...

  • i guess i don't get the metaphor or greater meaning here, because this is just kind of a waste of 3:30 of my time, personally. more bass, more interest.

  • @hereforbewbies you're waisting 7 hours every day for sleeping so this 3:30 can't be so important, relax!

  • hes not a pioneer but still a great artist

  • This man makes fucking awesome music, and now he has joined audiotool . com

  • the genius in this track (and the whole DE9 transitions mix) is how ritchie managed to combine 4 or more tracks at once and make the whole coherent and massively impactful, creating a continuous and inexorable electrodelic transition ... a lot of people trying this would end creating some god awful mess, ritchie on first try turns this into a stomping, romping beautiful mess.

  • this is the most retarded thing i've seen and heard in weeks.

  • fuckig first class!

  • This is experimental, comes from the album/ cd transitions.... it's obviously not for everyone.... wtf is he doing?... well, we don't know the impact this will have, or has had... transitions.... had a certain goal... which was to no longer focus on songs individually, but on the feel that they had together.... this song is compiled of very many samples, loops, etc... happening live.... While you guys are busy talking of color, this guys busy painting a something which hasn't been done before.

  • Arguing about what's going on in someone else's head, like musical taste, is really a total waste of time.

  • Wowowow Richie, imma let you finish, but Paul Kalkbrenner has the best minimal of all time!

  • Comment removed

  • @rache19637 lol comment removed, i'm right, i win! oh no wait, kalkbrenner wins!

  • @Sin578 I feel sorry for you if you think kalkbrenner is better than Richie Hawtin..

  • @rache19637 Well, I'm a fearless bastard and I don't care if you think Hawtin is better... Kalkbrenner is the best minimalist!

  • @Sin578 Kalkbrenner isnt a minimalist at all, hes a fucking drug addict with commercial sound...

    rache19637 : how lond did you hear techno ? 2 years ? did you stardet with berlin calling ? This is underground Sound and thats the real minimal !!

  • @Gianni1932

    Why the fuck would anyone compare two totally different artists?! You can compare Richie with Magda,or Bailey with Hades,or Liebing with Speedy,but theese guys are not similiar at all...Both of them are good in their sub-genres/styles...It's like comparing Laibach with Bach or weed with pussy,for fuck sakes...

    And Paul isn't a drug addict,it's the Ickarus,the movie character.His sound isn't commercial,it's just mixed with trance...

  • bello

  • Cool!!!

  • thumbs up if you've had trips remarkably similar to this.

  • Niiki - Stability Spot Cool Fastevil (4 Bootleg)...

  • trippiest shit i've seen so far.

  • Richie Hawtin is fucking awesome.

  • 81 people didn't make it through the tunnel

  • hi im 12 what is this

  • @ldskzz Minimal music. Hawtin is an old electronic producer who still rocks it today. May be a little hard to get into, though.

  • This track hits deep, truly phat track. Big ups

  • Comment removed

  • @ueffect he is the god, and you are the troll, his troll :>

  • @ueffect Richie Hawtin aka. Plastikman, is NOT emo.... it''s all about the visuals for the song. Dig deeper plox :D

  • Does anyone know where I can watch the Hudson video? About the Hudson plant in Detroit, where we used to rave hardcore here in D town? I don't have it in my tracks, and I miss it.

    Richie Hawtin put together a sick track for it....

  • @dephtful I don't think so... Similar but if you really listen they're not really sharing anything (and just because Elephant Island was released in '04 and The Tunnel a year later doesn't mean it's a "remix")

    Unless you have definitive proof, so to speak, how did you come to this "realization"?

  • @djERICSPEEd

    I read an 'article about it that just spoke of' use of the samples of "Elephant Island" in "the tunnel ".

    As soon as I find I write you the link.

    Regards.

  • @dephtful That would be cool, thanks.

  • @djERICSPEEd

    So here you carry the review of which I speak ... I saw also, an article where R. Hawtin admitted to have taken as many as 8 samples from different tracks for create 'The Tunnel', but I can not find it ...

  • @djERICSPEEd

    "The tunnel samples / Borrows heavily from very Sleeparchive (Elephant Island and Research), and Philus Ø (Rongten EP).

    So much so That It Is Hardly an original piece, more like a remix, mash-ups. Being very familiar with the works of Mika Vainio and Sleeparchive I find it a bit disappointing to hear Those artists' trax Basically Being played over a different beat.

    Twin Cities is a drawn-out fun dancing around a bonfire vibe kind of trippy percussion heavy track. "

    Bye

  • @dephtful Why disappointed, he gave a new layout to those songs and made them more acceptable to techno audience .

  • Just f-ing awesome!!! BTW I know for a fact that he is not gay because he dated my cousin Britt Bardo for about 5 yrs in the 90s!!

  • Love his hair!

  • Funky minimal techno please I want more like this can you give recommendations I alread know Craig Richards.

  • @j1mf1eld search for " stella bezentakou "

  • OOOOW YEAH !!!!!!!

  • what the fuck is this, big shit

  • No words.... Richie is GREAT!!!!!!!!!

  • LSD or a lot of porn to do this?

  • you can clearly see aliasing when the tube goes diagonally.

  • FUCK !?

  • n.n 

  • Unless you have surround speakers, this music can't be fully appreciated without headphones on.

  • any better quality ??

  • @d1versify  yes, on dvd ,in dolby surround .

  • @dirtypleasures ok can you send it to Tertipi 39, 104 45 , Acharnai, Athens . thanks

  • wtf happened to this guy... safe generic and disposable

  • This is how powerful the human mind really is :P

  • this is incredible, perfect combination! amazing sound and cool clip. thnx ali demirel and plasticman.

  • very nice track ! worst video i've ever seen though :(

  • @gvforces less is more

  • @gvforces He is a minimal artist, hence the minimalism in the video.

  • listen to this on acid and you get fuckin FUCKIN i dont know ^^ buts its really nice =D

  • Comment removed

  • amazing track...richie you are the best!!!

  • trippy

  • i just love Richie and BIG respect for his work...

  • @Mariodabomb Thanks for answering, I got the doubt because of his hair cut, because many gays used it like that. But well, thanks. n_n

  • @falcoks9514 What the fuck does it matter if he's gay or not anyway?

  • @Smiffster2006 I-m just curious because of one of his haircut only that.

    Don't take the comment seriously, I don't have nothing against gay people, It just a doubt that I had. :)

  • @Smiffster2006 his music is the important...... and yeah he know what is the music

  • @Smiffster2006 He's not gay

  • @Smiffster2006 Doesn't matter at all, pretty sure he mentioned he was going to be a father in one video though?

  • @Smiffster2006 maybe it matters to those who are in the closet feeling uncomfortable with them selves? fuck, who knows these days...

  • I got a question Ritchie Hawtin is gay?

  • 很久了看了還是很爽........合法的

  • pure genius

  • looks like Sven Vath's videos

  • in the name of grass,i`m tripping YEAH!

  • @madmintal fuck yeah!

  • this is how I controll my Morgaana !

  • @luvumo2day I am under your control master luv!

  • what style of his music? any1 please?

  • @DJbasshunterDJ Richie Hawtin style.

  • каппец!! Он с этой причей похож на педика )))

  • oh GODDDDDDD, I was just listening to Pauly D's Beat that Beat before this. I feel like all my creativity has been sucked out after listening to that. I'm so glad there's electronic artists like Hawtin that I can look up to during desperate measures :*(

  • Interesting!

  • I'm confused why so many people like this guy...? It's so basic, simple, and boring. An 8 year old could come up with this...

  • @tylerdurdonxx  Thats why he left Detroit, people in Europe are more into music rather than ice games .

  • @tylerdurdonxx So what you recommend to listen?

  • @TheLoveweeds If we're sticking with electronic music, I'd say Ferry Corsten blows this guy away. Hixxy, Scott Brown, Dougal.

  • @tylerdurdonxx hixxy? scott brown? dougal? lol, an 8 year old has a better chance of repeating the same note(s) with the same generic drums and some dumb vocals all at a high bpm than creating all the slight changes in sound and unique layers in this song.... i don't listen to ferry corsten so i wouldn't know about that. o:

  • @liddlexxleahxx01 my dj is better than your dj XD are you joking?_? Is your mind really that small or are you just misinformed? This is why the electronic music scene has become so polluted... This is history here... and if you had the gear I guarantee you could not produce anything close to this quality... back to school maggot

  • @Lemure333 you shouldn't jump into conversations if you don't know what they were about in the first place. but i find it more disconcerning that you decided to post a comment of you whining about a month old comment that you don't even have the brain capacity to understand instead of THE SONG (or video).

  • @liddlexxleahxx01 WoW... you are so deep and wise, just like the video...

    How about a butt cheese sandwich?

  • Comment removed

  • @tylerdurdonxx when you've grown up you'll be embarassed that you used to listen to stuff like that.. I know you wont believe me now, but just remember this comment in 5 years time.

  • @cartesiaLive Dude there's gonna be a lot of shit you're embarassed about doing years from now.. I'm not gonna live my life like that.....and say oh what if 5 years from now I feel dumb for having listened to it. I listen to all kinds of music, techno definitely isn't my top. And if 5 years from now, Im embarassed about having listened to hixxy....then so be it, i'll just laugh it off. It's not a big deal man.

  • @TheLoveweeds If i was at a party or something, this would be fine background music. But I wouldnt be able to drive around in my car listening to it. That's all I'm saying.

  • @tylerdurdonxx Because Richie Hawtin is the pioneer of a entire new genre, the so called "minimal techno". And if you think this could be done by an 8-year old kid, please listen this record again. It is quite a challenge to make a techno track which is so progressive and "crawling". But that is my opinion, no offense.

  • looks like a selfmoving sushi roll at the start, but its not, cause there is some sort of pizza sphere fighting back, plus a rare sort of expanding eggs in evolution. at last nazi boy lookin rithie looks tired. me too.

    ps i like ritchie and techno

  • pilllllllssssss

  • Richie is the king of minimalism but there's actually tons of things going on in this track. Guess that fact doesn't contradict the term "minimalism" then...!

  • so trippy :O

  • f hardcore :X

  • nice haircut, hitlerjugend style, very 80ties. no harm there, just Art.

    ritchie used to wear glasses. good their gone. made my eyes 2 years ago.

    lasercut.

  • kas nesupranta tas nesupras ......

  • That's simply the best:)

  • cooool

  • If you go high you can enjoy this but you can feel so boring if you don't take drugs.

  • @Meldanion

    If you love music it is not necesary...

  • @Meldanion Sadly, you are not in it for the music....

  • yeah so amazing

  • this is simply a trip

  • 90s

  • Pretty sick video ; )

  • electrobeach festival--- Richie Hawtin, Sven Väth y Carl Cox---- ETC.....
