Biography:
Richie has been a firm lover of DJ'ing from the young age of 14, to buying his first pair of Technics 1210's at 16 playing and collecting vinyl to now at the age of 27 using Traktor and Ableton to provide people with music to make them sit up and think whats that tune. He started out listening to old Progressive House mixes from the likes of Sasha, John Digweed, Nick Warren, Dave Seaman, Hernan Cattaneo, Danny Howells and Paul Oakenfold collecting Global Underground and Renaissance cds etc, staying up late listening to old essential mixes on BBC Radio 1, listening to any sets he could from these guys back then and following the likes of them from club to club. Even today although the direction of his music has changed slightly he is still a firm lover of the Progressive House/breaks Sound of the late 90's/early 2000's and you will most likely hear him drop one of those old Progressive/Breaks tunes in his sets towards the end of a mix or night, however he has taken a more Nu Disco, Deep, Disco Prog House route in his musical and DJ'ing style as sounds and DJs evolve. Over the last year or so Richie has gained a residency in his home City of Sunderland in the UK at a local trendy bar called Bar Justice. Aswell as playing in London at Nuestra Casa which is a firm favourite amongst the dance and clubbing scene in London due to its upfront sounds and DJ's at the night at Bar Vinyl in Camden. You can still find him supporting and a regular at the night even when not DJ'ing himself. Richie is into his second year of his monthly Seamless podcasts and its only in August 2011 Pure.FM signed him to broadcast them on the first Monday of every month along with his favourite chosen special guest DJs/Producers at the moment. So make sure you tune in and enjoy the Nu Disco/Disco Prog revolution.
