Award winning DJ/Producer Tim Richards has been immersed in dance music for over the past decade and has been working as a fulltime DJ/Producer for over three years now.
Tim has forged his name as a top billing DJ at major nationwide events, as well as being voted 'Best Producer' in 2007 and Best Progressive DJ in 2009 at the Nite:Life awards. He hosts a popular club night under the name 'Signature Sounds' and also has a weekly radio show under the same branding on George FM.
His efforts have seen him booked as far afield as London, New York, Vancouver, San Francisco, Dublin and more, as well as playing at closer to home events in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney, along with regular guest spots around New Zealand.
Tim's growing production schedule has begun to pay off with his tracks showing up in the playlist's of some of the most respected tastemakers in music today. His tracks and remixes have been played by the likes of John Digweed, Funk D'Void, Sasha, Laurent Garnier, John Digweed, Nic Fanciulli, Stephan Bodzin, Hernan Cattaneo, Steve Lawler, King Unique, Tony Humphries as well as featuring on Pete Tong's Essential Mix show.
