FACT are defining new boundaries in terms of forward thinking music events from Sonar in Barcelona to Ushuaia in Ibiza and the Opera House in Sydney.

With production such a vital part of the modern DJs armory, Rick has devoted himself to the studio in recent months with his customary zeal. Ever the perfectionist, he took time to fully develop his musical style and create a platform where his ideas can be fully expressed. This paid of and results clearly showed with own original material already released on Re-UP’s Kina Music and future releases coming out on Inmotion and Inwave music are already planned. Rick is an extremely versatile DJ who is able to adapt his unique sound to any kind of environment where he combines impeccable taste with impressive technical skills to superb effect. Serious quality inevitably produces outstanding results, and with Rick you can be assured of this and more with every performance.
