RiskSoundsystem

Born and raised in the Netherlands, France, the United States, the United Kingdom and several other countries, RISKSOUNDSYSTEM (RSS) have grown out to produce and play their own eclectic sound they like to call RealHouseMusic.

Driven by a strong longing for the true diverse spirit of dance music, initiator and founding member Mike Richters (of Club Risk fame) quickly gathered together some of his likeminded friends to start this fresh and innovative collective. Each of RSS' members comes from a musically diverse background, which you will find is reflected in their live performances and productions. They do not like to confine themselves to any boundaries. They actually like to cross all boundaries know, a true eclectic sound; house, garage, techno, disco, funk, soul, no matter what you call it, from Frankie Feliciano to Derrick May. If it's Real House Music, they will play it.

Members
The group's core members include Mike Richters (DJ/co-producer), Leroy Rey (DJ/producer), Chocolate Brown (DJ/producer) and John Agesilas , assisted by their friends and family, and everyone who supports their Real House Music. Each individual had earned his due as a solo artist.

Mike Richters was a successful promoter and artist manager of Club Risk & Risk Agency (1994 – 2005). This lead him to working with big names such as Masters at Work, Kerri Chandler and Ron Carroll to name a few.

Leroy Rey is a true musical chameleon and one of the most versatile DJ's of The Netherlands, highly respected by fellow DJ's for his skills and musical knowledge. For that reason he is not only proud member of RISKSOUNDSYSTEM (house), but also part of Wicked Jazz Sounds and The Aficionados & The Proov.

Chocolate Brown started DJ'ing in 1991 when he lived in Groningen and was one the most important people introducing house music in the northern part of The Netherlands. Playing a great variety of genres makes him a real all-round DJ.

John Agesilas is a well known and renowned dance teacher/choreographer and MC/host. His true love for house music is what lead him to RISKSOUNDSYSTEM Hyping the crowd with is unparalleled flow and style is what defines him as an excellent MC.

Although they are very different characters, they share the same love for House music and have been friends for a long time. When performing it is obvious they love to hang out and play records together and that feeling reflects on the crowd. The result: guaranteed good music, a great performance, lots of fun and an ecstatic crowd…

That is RISKSOUNDSYSTEM
