In 2007 Tim Richards was voted best producer at the Auckland Nitelife awards. It was another step recognizing the international success of the local lad who grew up in Mangere Bridge. Tim's tunes have been played by the best, DJs like Sasha (voted number 1 DJ in the world in 2000, and in the top 10 ever since), Simon Dunmore (Defected), King Unique (Curfew), Tony Humphries (New York), Nic Fanciulli (Saved), Stacy Kidd (Chicago), Magik Johnson (NRK), Pete Tong (BBC Radio 1) and more!
Tim has played locally and internationally London, San Fran, Dublin, and all the Aussie hotspots. He's familiar with most NZ clubs and is a regular on the George FM Summer Tours. Then there's the radio show, 'Signature Sounds' 10pm12mn, Tuesday nights on the now nationwide George FM (worldwide on the internet).
Tim has had releases on international labels Blockhead, Curfew, Grooved, Queep & Black Vinyl and remixes on Om, Queep and Defected. It's a lot to take in, but Tim's focused on keeping the tunes coming, he's looking to innovate and to keep ahead of the pack. If you want to see the future, keep your eyes, and ears, on this man.
