deadmau5 and Richie Hawtin Top Lineup of Speakers at Beatport’s Inaugural ReConnect Summit

Beatport has announced the headlining speaker lineup for the company’s inaugural ReConnect summit, set to take place in New York on September 21st and 22nd. 

Dance music stalwarts and PIXELYNX founders deadmau5 and Richie Hawtin are slated to speak about their experience in the Web3 space and provide insights on metaverse music experiences in the years to come.

Representatives from Meta, Red Light Management, Disruptor Records, the Association for Electronic Music and more will lead discussions on timely topics like diversity and inclusion, wellness and branding among others.

Beatport’s ReConnect summit builds upon Beatport’s philanthropic initiative that launched shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic wrecked havoc on the music industry. It has since raised more than $800,000 for charities around the world. 

“It is our hope that extending and transforming the ReConnect concept into an annual place to exchange ideas about our business, resonates with our community in New York and the U.S. in general,” said Ed Hill, SVP of Beatport Media Group, in a statement at the time. “This is a hugely important market for the music that we all love so much.”

Tickets start at $225 for ReConnect’s full two-day pass and $125 for a single day. With the one-day pass, you’ll get access to daytime talks, keynotes, workshops, rooftop DJ sets and nightly events in the club’s main room.
