Do!! You!!! resident and chug extraordinaire Richard Sen touches down in Dublin to showcase his unique take on club music.
Spraoi Mór welcomes the chugfather himself, Richard Sen, to Dublin.
Sen is an enigma, his sets broad and ever changing, weaving their way through a plethora of genres and styles, encompassing light and dark, yin and yang. We have been long time listeners of his Friday show on Do!! You!!! Radio and leaped at the opportunity to bring him to Dublin. Whether you're a chatroom freak, or have never heard of him before, this will be one for the books. Expect the unexpected and get ready to absolutely Sen-d it.
The intimate setting of Hang Dai is the perfect canvas for the night. Killer soundsystem, glowing dancefloor, impeccable vibes. With only 90 tickets available, this will sell out. Do not sleep.
More on 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 began DJing in 1989 and is recognised as an elder statesman, an educator and an expert on dance music. Richard is a maverick. Unpredictable, mysterious and engaging, his DJ sets always stand apart from the others. Sen has more music to call upon than most. His sets tell a story and reflect a deep understanding of dance-floor dynamics; this enables Sen to create the atmosphere in a room whilst taking risks and challenging his audience. His sound draws from 1970s, 80s and 90s influences and places them firmly in the present. 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.
Sen 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.
Richard remains passionate yet professional with impeccable taste. He currently has a weekly radio show for Charlie Bones' station, Do!! You!!! which allows him to narrate his history, explore his vast collection and introduce his eclectic taste to a new generation. He currently has an album and another compilation of early UK dance music (on the Ransom Note label), both due for release in 2023.
Still a fan at heart, some of his favourite DJs who have supported and played his music include David Mancuso, DJ Harvey and Andrew Weatherall.
