Da Rick
Da Rick is a DJ, MC and producer, and has been an established name on the Belgian dance and jump scene since the nineties. Together with Da Boy Tommy, he helped write the history of Belgian dance music and put jumpstyle on the international map. With more than ten entries in the Belgian Ultratop top 20, including two number 1 hits and four top 10 hits, he has built an impressive track record.
With Da Boy Tommy, Da Rick made dance history. Tracks such as ‘Halloween’, ‘Candyman’, ‘Attention’, ‘Bill & Monica’ and ‘(Let’s Get Ready To) Rumble’ became big hits and dancefloor staples at home and abroad. Together they shaped a recognisable sound that won over a whole generation of partygoers. After the sudden death of Da Boy Tommy, Da Rick carried on alone, and today he keeps their legacy alive on stage.
He is also the founder, producer, DJ and MC of DHT. Their version of ‘Listen To Your Heart’ became a worldwide hit, reaching number 8 on the US Billboard Hot 100, number 1 on the American pop and dance radio charts, and the top 10 in several countries.
Today Da Rick is much more than a jumpstyle DJ. With years of experience behind the decks, he knows like no other how to read and work a crowd. From familiar 90s and 00s classics, retro and jumpstyle to commercial dance, party classics and current hits: Da Rick switches effortlessly between styles and generations. As DJ and MC at the same time, he brings a big dose of energy, interaction and atmosphere, always with the right music at the right moment.
His career spans several generations, with experience on countless big stages and festivals. That makes Da Rick a versatile entertainer who gets every crowd moving, whether at a festival, in a club, at a retro party or at a corporate event. Want to book Da Rick for your event?
