Richard Durand Turns The… Silver Key

‘Silver Key’, the next track to graduate to single release status from Richard's ‘Always The Sun’ album will soon be among us. The fiercely-minded tech-trancer has torn, tornado-like, across the dancefloors of Tiësto, Ferry Corsten, Judge Jules and a host of other spinning A-listers over the last month. It will hit stores on the 30th of November courtesy of Magik Muzik and comes complete with a hot-wiring from Sied van Riel.


DJ Mag Chart – Richard Jumps Into The Top 50!

In 2007 he entered at 91, in ’08 he leapt up 25 places up to 66 and this year Richard Durand has broken the Top 50 for the first time (landing at 49). All things considered it’s been another remarkable year - one that’s seen him release ‘Always the Sun’, rock numerous sell-out gigs (including the Trance Energy Australia and his Judgement Sundays residency) and thrown a fair few floor-scorcher remixes in to the mix! Richard would like to say a great big bottom-of-the-heart ‘thanks to every single one of you’ that put his name on an e-ballot. In the prescribed manner Richard was interviewed by the magazine about the last year - you can read all about it by clicking here


Winter 2009: Seasonally Sensation(al)!

The nights might be darker, the weather a bit ropier, but Richard is looking to push aside any winter blues with some big festival-sized performances. Having already ably wrocking (!) Wroclaw in Poland for Sensation (alongside Erick E, Sebastian Ingrosso et all), come the 31st of December it’ll be Australia’s turn. Melbourne is the city as the ‘Cirque Du Soleil’ of electronic dance events brings-it New Year’s Eve style. If you happen to find yourself anywhere in Australasia around the time… well suffice to say it’s not going to be one to miss!.


Richard Does The New Men's Health Mix

Featuring a testosterone-charged tracklist that features the likes of Andy Dugiud, Alex O’Rion and Airbase (all the ‘A’s!), Richard has provided the latest Endurance Work Out Mix for Men’s Health Magazine. So, if alongside your dance floor activities you’ve got an appointment with an abdominser or running machine over the course of this month, pick it up and give it a spin! Naturally enough there’s plenty of Richard’s own gear on there too (including ‘Silver Key’ and ‘Something Else’) to pound pedals to, and if you live inside the UK you can pick up the mix via ITunes and read all about the Men’s Health Mix here.


Richard Durand Official iPhone App

If you’re sitting with an iPod or iPhone currently tucked in your pocket at this moment, you’ll likely be pleased to hear that Richard now has his very own App for it! Staying on top of all Richard’s runnings could not now be easier. You can check the latest tracks and videos, keep up to date with his Blog and browse gig footage and photos with just a few touches of the screen. Click here to get the full lowdown on it.

Biography
Up to 49 in 2009 DJ Magazine Poll

Without doubt the hottest new trance DJ / producer to emerge from Holland this past couple of years is Richard Durand. Recommended by the mighty Tiësto as his 'Tip For The Top in 2007' in DJ Magazine, Richard responded with a string of stunning productions, including official remixes for Tiësto, culminating in a new entry placing in the DJ Magazine Top 100 DJs poll at the end of 2007.

The Richard Durand sound is trance, techno and tough electro in a unique package that's both dynamic and devastating. Having initially made his mark as a solo producer with big tech trance bombs such as 'Make Me Scream' and 'Slipping Away' on the Terminal 4 label, the huge success of his remixes of Tiësto singles 'Lethal Industry', 'Flight 643' and 'Break My Fall', plus infamous festival favourite reworks of the likes of Prodigy 'Smack My Bitch Up' and Snow Patrol 'Chasing Cars' soon had Richard Durand marked as one of the hottest remixers on the planet with consistent playlist support from the DJing elite Armin van Buuren, Paul van Dyk, Ferry Corsten, Judge Jules and Eddie Halliwell to name but a few.

Richard Durand continued to deliver big tracks in 2008, adding his magic touch to Fragma 'Toca's Miracle' and stepping up to rework Armin van Buuren 'In And Out Of Love' to equally devastating effect. At the same time, Richard's solo productions were also hitting the headlines; his 'Weep' track featuring Skin from Skunk Anansie on vocals was signed to Perfecto and proved to be one of the summer's biggest anthems.

It was also 2008 that saw the Richard Durand DJing schedule explode into overdrive as the dance community embraced an artist who was not only a hot producer, but also one of the most technically accomplished DJs in dance music today. Utilising 4 x CD decks and effects units, Richard Durand DJ sets are a whirlwind journey of cutting edge tunes, exclusive reworks, slick mixing and technical wizardry behind the decks. His ability to work crowds into a frenzy and a clear passion about his music have cemented Richard Durand's place as a fans favourite the world over and a legend in the making.

Richard Durand’s show-stopping sets and crowd pulling DJ status is confirmed by his DJ diary reading like a who's who of A-list events, headlining global festival brands such as Sensation, Trance Energy, Planet Love, Coloursfest, Tunnel Electrocity and Summer Of Love, plus leading club brands including Godskitchen, Gallery, Gatecrasher and Slinky, a standout summer residency at Judgement Sundays in Ibiza and tours to every corner of the globe. He's also joined the exclusive set of DJs to be awarded a coveted 'Essential Mix' on BBC Radio 1, as well as co-hosting shows twice with Judge Jules on Radio 1.

In 2009 Richard Durand clocked up another huge remix, this time of Art Of Trance 'Madagascar', before setting another landmark on his rapid career path to the top by releasing his debut artist album 'Always The Sun' on Magik Muzik / Black Hole Recordings. The album has spawned three massive singles already; 'Into Something', title track 'Always The Sun' which had heavy playlist rotation on dance music TV channels worldwide, plus the latest smash 'No Way Home'. With dedicated album release dates and support tours in various territories worldwide, expect Richard Durand's star to shine brightly into 2010.

Hey Richard, this track Silver Key is really amazing! The sounds are wonderful and they surely make people go crazy. Although the original track has more places with the beautiful tone, but van Riel's remix is also great! They both give the same incredible feeling, and this track definitely becomes one of my favorites!

Hey Richard, I love your 2009 November Mix! It's really amazing. The sound is very relaxing and pleasant to listen to. And the most important thing is that it doesn't get boring, because you manage to keep good rhythm and to make those nice beats. Keep on going, your music is outstanding;)
