With Remiix: Plastikman Replikants, Richie Hawtin is setting the tone for Liine's new interactive music concept that includes Griid and Kapture. The Remiix series of apps for iPhone and iPad, created alongside the scene's most forward thinking artists, allows users to experience music in a completely new way.
Instead of being recorded and rigid, the music is delivered in parts alongside all the tools needed to put it back together or to recombine it in a completely new way. With Remiix you're able to remix recordings real parts from real recordings and is not based on generic loops or sample library content. You can perform with the exact same material used by the artists themselves.
Remiixing Plastikman
With this first in the Remiix series, Richie Hawtin offers loops and parts from classic Plastikman tracks, from remixes specially commissioned for Replikants (part of the extensive Arkives package; or check Arkives remix contest) as well as bits and pieces discovered in the hidden depths of his studio.
This is a unique opportunity to combine things that were never intended to be combined and to twist things into even deeper, darker, stranger places.
