Twenty-six-year-old DJ Dik Richie, real name Richie Mazzola, started DJing when he was 16 years old. Growing up in Detroit, he experienced the underground rave scene of the ’90s before it moved to the clubs, as he attended parties at warehouses, airplane hangars and old theaters. This firsthand knowledge of DJ culture and a love of funk and old hip-hop keep his style authentic and fresh. DJ Dik Richie continues to please crowds in his current dock of Las Vegas as well as in other cities while touring.
