"Devotion is the main aim—to try to encourage commitment in people." The fabric resident and Houghton festival founder discusses his love of the crowd, DJing and more.

Craig Richards, arguably one of UK dance music's most respected DJs, is normally averse to the spotlight. But the multi-hyphenate artist and fabric resident has played the London institution every Saturday for nearly two decades, DJing alongside fellow household names like Ricardo Villalobos and Nicolas Lutz. Over the years, Richards has profoundly shaped the canon that's defined the space and its programming week in and week out.

He’s keenly attuned to other DJs and the flow of a night, and he's not indebted to one particular style or genre. In a Resident Advisor feature from 2019, Ray Philp described his sound as "intergalactic space metal" that goes far beyond techno, house or electro, instead interplaying classics with deep, headsy tunes that he tirelessly seeks out every week.

In this interview with RA's European deputy editor Carlos Hawthorn, Richards talks about what makes a good record, and the DJ's role as a bridge between the past and present. He also discusses his endeavours beyond the booth—most notably the idyllic festival he started in 2017, Houghton, which is set in the English countryside—and his passion for painting and cross-disciplinary creativity. Listen to the episode in full.

For our 1st digital release in 2020 we've compiled a very special digital only VA. This is the first of a selection of digital EPs where 100% of the profits will be donated to local charities and organisations who are having a positive impact in our community. 

For this EP all profits will be donated #NextGenMovement. They are a millennial driven organisation which focuses on empowering the youth, fighting against racism and being a voice for Nottingham's community. This is to show our continued support for equality, empowerment and the ongoing need to educate ourselves around the Black Lives Matter movement. 

Most of these tracks have not been released on digital before donated to us from vinyl releases going back to the late 90s and early 2000s. They have brought so much joy and unity to many dancefloors across the world.

A massive thank you to all the artists for getting involved. Safe to say every track would still sound at home on the dancefloor today and we're incredibly grateful for all your support. 

We stand united. 

Peace & love from discotech X
