Richie August started mixing Drum & Bass and Hip Hop in 1998. He then started producing his own music in 2000, and worked with Chicago Hip Hop artist, "Skope The Lyrical MC", until he was exposed to Dubstep in early 2008. It didn't take him long before his first Dubstep release was signed to Betamorph Recordings entitled "Death Proof EP".
As soon as that EP was released, it solidified his sound in the Dubstep community as a Producer / DJ with nothing but teeth rattling bass and a Hip Hop edge... A sound which nobody has been able to imitate. Since then, he's been making beat after beat, remixing, collaborating and pushing out tracks. As soon as you hear a new Richie August tune, you know it's his. Richie is a member of Chicago's "Dubfix" crew and has played clubs and raves all over the US.
He has shown his skills at the infamous "SmartBar" in Chicago numerous times, murdering their dance floor on the clubs' Funktion-One sound system. Richie just got back from playing Fuzz in Pittsburgh, has a tour planned for this Winter, and is currently filling up his calendar with dates throughout the U.S.A.
