After some time away, Nicholas Richard brings us back to the fore with CM045. Nicholas partied with us in the early days and now runs his own Wonky Disco in Cambridge, UK. It's great that he join us once again and add to the series many years later. Enjoy & thank you for listening.

Michael was the founder of, and resident DJ at, C64 - the underground breakbeat/tech house club which became one of the leading free club nights in London in the Noughties. 

C64 started in backrooms and bars in Farringdon in 2002, and quickly went on to become a bi-monthly, then monthly night. Appearing variously at The Key, Industry, Dust, The Arches, Cargo, via an assortment of dodgy boozers, various warehouses, countless afterparties, and the occasional police station, C64 would basically play anywhere that would have them. Or from which they hadn't been banned.

Somehow running until 2008, C64 was consistently nominated in the "best independent/small club night" at the annual Breakspoll Awards. It has to be accepted that this was a narrow field in which to compete. But C64 was regularly voted into the best 3 breakbeat nights in London at Breakspoll, and railed up against the might of FabricLive and Chew The Fat!. Sometimes there were more than 3 nights to vote for...`

C64 hosted amongst others, the Plump DJs, Deekline & Wizard, Soul of Man, Paul Arnold, The Freestylers, Slyde, Jem Haynes (Precision Cuts), Dopamine, DJ Friendly, Kickflip, Atomic Hooligan, Groove Diggerz, and the Breakfastaz.
