Breakbeat Rich D.
PhatKidz PodOMatic Episode 8: Rich D.

Dj Rich D. whose real name is Rich Doss has been mixing it up in the urban breakbeat culture since the late 90’s. His unique style and BASS dropping sounds are sure to make any dance floor crowded. Rich started cutting his teeth back in the early 90’s in clubs like “The EDGE” and “Cloud 9” in Orlando Florida where his love for the dance music scene started. In the late 90’s Rich started his Djing career at house parties and anywhere he could get himself on the turntables and the fire was ignited.

In the early 2000’s Rich found himself in clubs like Sol-Rays in Daytona Florida, Firestone and Cyberzone in Orlando Florida playing next Djs like Rob-E, Def Jeff, Jason Brown, Dj Security and many more. As the scene in Daytona and Orlando started slowing down in the late 2000’s Rich turned from djing to production work doing edits and re-rubs from the likes of Wolfgang Gartner, Feed Me, Swedish House Mafia, Kultur, Mord Fustang, Colombo, Deadmau5, and many more. Rich has recently gotten himself back to his first true love and found his way back behind the decks mixing his remixes and re-rubs into his sets and bringing the “BOOM” back to his fans.

Recently Rich has also found his way into playing venues with Djs like Wes Smith, Jimi The Genius, Pauly Fixx, Hydrashock (From Jackal and Hyde), Dustin “Dj Dynasty” Nelson, D-Xtreme, Dj Sandy, Supernaut, Spice (of Friction & Spice), Kemper, Dj Matrix, JDub, Geebo, and Supagroover. Rich has also been featured on shows like Social Menace Toxic Radio show as well as Lady Waks (In Da Mix) podcast show #323. He was also selected to do the first mix that kicked off the Funky Flavor series. Anyway you look at it the future is bound to be bright for this breakbeat junkie as he continues to set his roots in this ever evolving culture.
