Former London graffiti artist, Richard Sen began DJing in 1989 and is recognised as an elder statesman, an educator and an expert on dance music. Richard’s genre-fluid selection seamlessly flows back and forth between: retro and future, dark and light, disco, Italo, wonky house, electro, breakbeat and deep techno. He has released music, more recently, under his own name and previously under the guises of Bronx Dogs (1997-2003) and Padded Cell (2005-2012). 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. Padded Cell’s music was used in the hugely popular video game – Grand Theft Auto 4 and the U.S. HBO comedy show Eastbound and Down. In 2012, Richard released a compilation, This Ain’t Chicago on Strut Records. This was a groundbreaking selection of obscure, early UK house music, widely regarded as the first retrospective of its kind. The promo video was listed in Beatport’s top ten house documentaries of all time.
