His hardworking approach has seen him play everywhere from BPM Mexico and Blue Marlin Dubai to Berlin\u2019s infamous Panorama Bar. His Ibiza presence is undeniable; this season, he held down his well-known residency at Paradise, DC-10 whilst also becoming one of seven all-night guests to take over the Space Terrace for elrow. With so many high profile gigs, he\u2019s earned himself a spot in Resident Advisor\u2019s top 100 DJs for the past three years running.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst Richy is certainly a mainstay within the Hot Creations family, one of his key releases of 2015 was the \u2018Can\u2019t You See\u2019 EP on revered dance label Strictly Rhythm. He remains a prolific remixer, with these appearing on the likes of Circus, Suara, Truesoul, Crosstown Rebels, FFRR and Hotflush Recordings to name a few.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Richy is branching out with his brand new label, Four Thirty Two. It launched with his well-received \u2018Put Me In A Trance\u2019 EP in 2016. The label offers Richy a chance to A&#038;R the music he loves, as well as to put out unique material of his own. It will be kept to a few releases a year, often from undiscovered and smaller artists who are putting out the high quality material that Richy believes in. A strong focus on artwork and vinyl are at the center of the label\u2019s ethos, with certain releases being tuned exactly to 432 Hz &#8211; a method commonly used by John Lennon and Bob Marley, and the label\u2019s namesake.<\/p>\n<p>The release of \u2018Put Me In A Trance\u2019 followed two of Richy\u2019s own branded Four Thirty Two UK tours, where he played sold-out nights across the UK from Glasgow\u2019s Sub Club to Mint Club in Leeds. The Four Thirty Two parties swiftly gained a reputation for both their intimate venues and quality atmosphere in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Richy\u2019s reputation as one of the best DJs and producers around is firmly established. 2017 looks set to see Richy continue to reinvent and branch out, a sign of true sticking power in a fast paced industry.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Richy Ahmed\" width=\"500\" height=\"450\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Fusers%2F160591&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxheight=750&#038;maxwidth=500\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr>\n<h5>MASON COLLECTIVE<\/h5>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Mason-Collective-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-5016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Mason-Collective-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Mason-Collective-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Mason-Collective-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Mason-Collective-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Mason-Collective.jpg 1363w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/>Headed by Blair Suarez, Adam Myles and Omar Guedar, Mason Collective are the dynamic trio rising through the underground music scene with their signature high energy grooves and explosive DJ sets.<\/p>\n<p>A breakthrough 2018 saw them play at some of the UK\u2019s best venues and festivals including Creamfields, Parklife, WHP, Canal Mills and Studio 338.
