RICHARD SEN

Fetish clubs and festivals; dark basements and back rooms; disco pubs and super-clubs. Richard has done it all, globally. His authenticity, experience and 30 year history in dance music map out a unique story.

Former London graffiti artist, Sen is recognised as an elder statesman and an educator. Unpredictable and engaging, Sen has more music to call upon than most; his DJ sets stand apart whilst reflecting a deep understanding of dance-floor dynamics. His sound draws from 1970s, 80s and 90s influences and places them firmly in the present. Richard’s genre-fluid selection seamlessly flows between: retro and future, dark and light, disco, Italo, deep and wonky house, electro, breakbeat and deep techno. Sen currently releases music under his own name and previously under the guises of Bronx Dogs and Padded Cell. His output includes singles on his own label, Darkness Is Your Candle and for like-minded labels, Klasse Wrecks and Public Release. Sen has also remixed respected artists: Bryan Ferry, John Grant, Unloved (David Holmes’ band) and LCD Soundsystem.

His music has been used in high profile videos games and TV shows including Grand Theft Auto 4 and the HBO comedy Eastbound and Down. As a curator, Richard’s most recent compilation, Dream The Dream on Ransom Note Recs was voted Best British Compilation of 2023 by DJ Magazine. Sen’s music has also been used by respected clothing brands, Moschino and Sacai to soundtrack their cat-walk shows. Richard remains passionate yet professional with impeccable taste. He currently has a weekly radio show for Charlie Bones’ station, Do!! You!!! Radio, which allows him to narrate his history, explore his vast collection combined with upfront and unreleased material. T

he growth of the show alongside recent ‘all night long’ DJ sets have propelled Richard into one of the most influential taste-makers in the UK.
