- The famed DJ will team up with Minus man Ambivalent at Dubspot's New York Ableton 8 Live Tour stop.
- Richie Hawtin, Ambivalent and DJ Rupture will be among the DJs and producers speaking at the Ableton 8 Live Tour, hosted by Dubspot, later this month in New York. The DJ/production school has made news of late, as laid-off workers flock to its environs while the economy remains in the doldrums. That's one of the reasons that Dubspot has gone on the road, taking some of its instructors with them to various cities across the United States to help teach eager students about Ableton Live's newest release, 8.0. At the New York stop, there will be two days of workshops. On the first, Hawtin and Ambivalent will be the stars of the show by "giving their own take on the process as a whole, covering unique tricks and strategies that help them forge the sounds of Minus." Meanwhile, on day two, DJ Rupture will hold court on the recording of acoustic instruments and how to set-up your gear to process it properly. Throughout both sessions there will be plenty more lessons to be learned, though: Check the event listings below to find out details on each.
