Ricky Chong:
His Dj sets tend to circumvent the glorious sounds of dance music’s past to present, with genres changing in the blink of a blend; if it sounds good and moves him both emotionally and physically, then he’s all about it. Usually armed with his trusty E&S rotary mixer, Ricky achieves this perennial fusion through remarkable technical dexterity in the booth. His tools, though, merely aid his cause, instead it’s his willingness to explore this vast wonderland of musical joy that’s testament to his ferocious appetite for exploration within the dance. Ricky possesses an undying love for his craft, eager to present his seemingly infinite record collection to dance floors weekly. He is nothing short of memorable moments whenever taking to the decks, making his guardianship in the club a vital experience for anyone willing to abide.
Ricky plied his trade through his record digging mentality. Having paid heed to his father’s vast collection from young, Ricky became a devoted disciple of the vinyl. This obsession engulfed his world, eventually leading to his first club show with his hometown’s legendary Faint crew in Sligo on Ireland’s west coast. Since then, he has been an omnipresent figure of Ireland’s clubbing world playing highly touted sets at Index, Lola Montez, AVA Festival, Life Festival, Fuinneamh, Electric Picnic, Jika Jika, Otherside Festival as well as multiple appearances within the UK circuit in Lakota Bristol and his recent show at The Crofters Rights. He also holds a notable monthly residency at renowned Dublin hi-fi bar The Big Romance.
