With his raw talent and spirited creativity DJ Steve Richards’ is rapidly making his mark in the dance music industry. His vivacious sets have caused dance floor carnage in many corners of the world whilst his edgy remixes can be found at the top of many charts.
Born n bred in London and exposed to music from an early age, Steve’s sound has developed and evolved over the years to encompass all styles of House. His talent derives from mastering the art of mixing from the early age of 15, it is these skills that have taken him from London to his first international residency in Cyprus, then on to tour the globe.
Not one to be stuck behind the decks. DJ Steve Richards is involved in event promotion, in which he has also experienced similar high levels of success. Since the year 2000 Steve has built up many club brands including ‘Funkylicious’, ‘Funky4love’ and ‘Another Wild Night’, some of have featured at some of the world’s top venues including Ministry of Sound (London), Pacha, Turnmills, The Castle Club, Babylon Superclub while also securing top-level international artists to-boot.
By 2007 Richards’ was running all marketing and promotions for the largest club in Cyprus, the Castle Club, alongside his 4-year DJ residency at the same venue. Weekly his brand Another Wild Night regularly drew 1,000+ people during the summer season, making them the most popular events on the island. With the Steve Richard’s name starting to span the globe, leading DJ equipment manufacturer Pioneer, were quick to sit up and take notice, and sponsored Richard’s events as his career continues to take-off.
Steve has also been stepping into the competitive world of music production, also forming the musical partnership ‘Elektrik Disko’ with New Zealand-born Jolyon Petch as his latest project. Remix work has already been completed for several big names including Agnelli & Nelson and the Soul Avengerz, with releases on Deep Blue and Soda Records. Collaborations with other well-known artists such as Katherine Ellis, Peyton & Maxi C are also under way, Steve has also been know to draft in the associated artist to perform his latest releases live in the Castle Club.
As expected 2009 kicked off with one heck of a bang and looks set to be Richards most successful year to date. Not only was Another Wild Night given a bi-monthly residency at London’s “Ministry of Sound”, Steve Richards was handed the reigns to manage all events and promotions for the latest and greatest Superclub to hit the coast of Cyprus, Babylon! Steve will continue to manage and serve as resident DJ for Babylon’s sister venue The Castle Club, while also drafting in the likes of Tiesto, Above & Beyond, Ferry Corsten, Mark Knight, Sander Kleinenberg, Tall Paul and more to his 2009 roster in association with Ministry of Sound Tours, Meganite & The Gallery.
On the production front things are equally as exciting. A release of the remix “If you want my love feat Maxi C” out on Soda records hit the No 1 spot on djdownload.com’s top 100 new releases in its first week. At the time of release it also stood as the 4th all time best selling track on Soda Records (aka Strictly Rhythm). Steve has diversified his production to include several originals tracks soon to be released on Jolyon's Luxury records.
From the DJ booth to the recording studio, event promotions and beyond, Richards’ energetic style, professionalism and friendly nature have secured him an ever-growing presence on the world’s electronic music map.
