Hawtin's Minus restructures, announces plans for 2007

Richie Hawtin's pioneering electronic labels Minus and Plus 8 have announced an internal restructuring with the appointment of Seth Hodder (ex-Mute/NovaMute) as General Manager, who will be based at the Minus office in Berlin.

Clark Warner will continue as Label Manager heading the office in Windsor, Ontario, Canada for an interim period.

"As Acting Label Manager, Clark has been an invaluable member of the Minus family, and with his help and dedication over the years, Minus has grown into a strong presence within the electronic music community. Seth brings a wealth of experience and knowledge with him from his years at Mute/NovaMute, and can help us move into new territories and further develop our artists. This is an important step for the development of Minus and for all of our future plans," comments label owner & president Richie Hawtin.

After a successful 2006 (check out the retrospective here), the label will be gearing up into 2007 with new releases by Heartthrob, Ambivalent, JPLS, False, Gaiser, Magda, a compilation of Minus classics and rumoured new Hawtin material.
