This Saturday Richie Hawtin, one of the true innovators of electronic music will be bringing his Plastikman live show to Glasgow's beloved Barrowlands, one of only three UK dates, so feel lucky those who managed to get tickets to the now sold out event. PLASTIKMAN Also featuring artists Magda and Ambivalent amongst others from the infamous M-NUS label the show is a must see for techno fans.  With the use of the SYNK app, Hawtin has the ability to control and sync together the music, lighting, audio and visuals live on stage, resulting in an experience that touches all the senses.  I saw the Plastikman live show 2 years ago in Barcelona, and it blew my mind, and with this being the fine tuned 1.5 version of it i'm sure it will be even better!  And where better to see it than Glasgow's iconic Barrowlands, I can't wait for this. Let's just hope I make it into work on Sunday........ Cammy
