A few hours after Richie Hawtin and Deadmau5 sat down for a conversation on the state of electronic music production and performance at SXSW 2013, they joined forces onstage to perform a collaborative “versus” set. The set involved both of them onstage mixing with their own setups concurrently.
Pretty awesome that these two got together to perform – and while we’ll have to wait for the official video to come out to really experience it, an initial video has surfaced on YouTube of the first 11 minutes of their set. Watch the video below (be warned, the sound quality leaves something to be desired) – it starts getting interesting around the 5 minute mark!
