Richie Hawtin belongs to the musical record as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.
The record lists Richie Hawtin as English-Canadian electronic musician and record producer.
Richie Hawtin was born at Banbury in 1970. His recorded nationality is Canada. He trained at Sandwich Secondary School.
Amplification, television and the album as an art form defined this period, and the record industry reached its greatest scale.
He worked as record producer, club dj and composer.
His work is classed as minimal techno and techno.
Music outlives its context more reliably than any other art, and usually for reasons its makers did not predict.
That the work came out of Canada shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.
