	<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Rick’s love of dance music started in his last year of High School listening to Trance and Happy Hardcore mix tapes. He was amazed at how the tunes were blended together, it was this that made him buy his first set of decks at the age of 17. Rick started to teach himself the tricks of the trade, through hours of practice, driven by pure passion for the music he plays which was originally the harder side of dance.
In June 2002 Rick was asked to play his first live set in Bar Beba (Macclesfield) – One problem, they wanted House. So for this gig, playing with records borrowed from a very good friend Mike Hewitt, he played it, and this was where the start of his love for house music began! With a Trance and Hardcore mixing background this brings a unique style to the way he mixes House music.
Rick’s main ambition had always been to play in Manchester’s Gay Village. It was with thanks to Anni Hogan (who wrote, arranged and produced Marc Almond for 9 years, and was Resident DJ at Spirit Bar - Canal Street – Manchester) that he finally got his chance. In February 2006 Rick dropped a demo into Anni at Spirit and a week later was playing the only slots she could give him, mainly covering for resident DJ’s who were away and on Bank holidays. Whilst playing one Bank Holiday, Rick was spotted by the Manager of Via Fossa (Canal St - Manchester) and was given his new residency every Sunday night which took off in true style, due to this Rick was moved to Fridays, then Saturdays.
From here Rick moved on to become a resident at The Eagle Bar in Manchester running his own club night called BRAWN.]]></itunes:summary>

            <description><![CDATA[Sorry you've not heard from me for a while, in fact my last mix was published in August 2018. As most know I lost my partner to cancer in 2019 so caring for him became my main priority.<br />
<br />
I've started to get myself back on track since he passed, and with this horrid corona virus situation I thought it was time to bring some uplifting Piano House back into all our lives.<br />

Thank you for your support especially through this dark time I've been through.<br />
