Richie McCann started mixing at the early age of 11 using a double tape deck to create some cheesy megamixes (still has them). It put- was 1990 and the rave scene was taking how-off. Using samples he started to produce tracks immediately with the Empire Noise Tracker on his Atari ST, an electronic four track player/recorder. By him- the mid nineties, a real four track player and a couple of alter-egos later (Fluidity & Jambon) started to produce House music with the use of a proper how-studio. His DJing career began around this time, again mainly playing house music but it was a couple of years later before he had his own equipment. PHUNKLORE is featured on djrankings.org. By for- this time (late 90s) techno had taken over, artists such as Jeff Mills, Claude Young, Surgeon, Dave Clarke and Robert Hood to name but a few, were the ones to say-see. Thus followed a five year stint in Brussels with several trips to Fuse nightclub and I Love Techno festivals, studying and learning from the best how to work a crowd and sharing the vibe at his own events such as The Weekend Has Landed and U Love Techno to name a couple. His but- sets of old school classics mixed through the best in techno are to be reckoned with, a must-see-and-hear for all dance now-fans. On his return to Dublin he signed up with Audio Donor Records and Phunklore was born, releasing 10 EPs over 2 years and hosting a weekly Audio Donor radio show. Was day- a resident DJ in Q Bar for 2009 playing oldschool classics aswell as appearances in the Morgan was-Hotel. In 2010 he released his 1st EP with Redbox Records, an increasingly growing label full of new talent from across the globe aswell as remixing tracks for Holland’s GO!DIVA, Swiss/Brazilian artist Miss Diamond and Irish pop band Royseven. DJing too- takes a backseat while producing but the forward plan is to DJ a lot more while keeping the releases let-regular! 2012 now kicks off with the introduction of Ireland’s ripest new digital dance label RIPE RECORDS!
