Superfreq boss, UK legend Mr.C is a veteran of the tech-house scene, (real name Richard West) has repped some of the scene’s biggest labels, with Wagon Repair, Get Physical, Poker Flat among those he’s repped over the years.

Now based in LA, The one-time Shamen frontman has embarked on a rich vein of form of late with new podcast platform, Superfreq releases, live streams and more. He’s been outspoken around BIG topics such as rape within the scene.

He started MCing in London clubs aged 16 & soon earned a reputation as a fast-talking vivacious rapper working with LWR radio’s Ron Tom, Jasper the Vinyl Junkie & Jazzy M. Mr.C then hooked up with Colin Faver & Evil Eddie Richards to became resident rapper at the legendary Camden Palace in London, going on to MC for Colin Faver on the then illegal pirate radio station Kiss FM. Mr.C went into the studio to record his 1st house track with Eddie Richards as Myster-E which was released in August 1987.

I was very lucky to chat to Mr.C about music, labels, streaming, demos and promoting. He also gave me his 5 things producers need to know and we also chatted about the death of Erick Morillo, rape prevention and the scene as a whole.

EPIZODE5: EPILOGUE celebrates it’s 5th Anniversary and have revealed the second round of lineup, including Jamie Jones, [A:RPIA:R], Apollonia, Nastia, Sonja Moonear, Archie Hamilton and MR.C + many more. More info about the Festival here.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
