Melbourne Techno Collective

It appears that Richie Hawtin may have been ejected from Berlin’s infamous techno club Berghain. While the exact details are yet to be known, Hawtin and fellow techno elite Dubfire both made mention of an incident via their Twitter profiles. Hawtin posting this “U know what, BERGHEIM is a great club once you are inside, but why does the door policy have to be so fucking ridiculously hard. Come on guys, you have a great club but don’t act so egotistically cool.” and Dubfire commenting that “I have to say that the bouncers were TOTAL pricks though and roughed up alot of our crew:-(”

While this is hardly rock solid evidence of a scandal, electronicbeats.net have confidently reported that a group including Hawtin were indeed ejected when “a curtain dividing the DJ booth and back room came crashing down and all behind it were thrown out.”
