Richie Hawtin founded the now legendary record label Plus 8 in 1990 with John Acquaviva, another champion of second-wave Detroit techno. Named after a turntable’s pitch adjust function, Plus 8 has consistently released classic tracks from Richie and artists like Speedy J for the past two decades. Check out the recent release by Plus 8 artist Danilo Vigorito above. It totally had our heads bopping, even in the office. You’ll also find info on the latest Plus 8 releases and can watch tutorials by Hawtin himself, covering the DubSpot sessions. To top that, there are instructions on how to use the Tracktor software Hawtin and his entourage use in their sets.
