Episode 96 of the Gangstercast series is brought to us by London based producer Riki Inocente. Riki is a pure self-taught producer, re mixer and DJ, his music has been moving dance floors all over the world for the last decade. He is forever experimenting new ideas drawing on the wealth of knowledge he has and life experience within the house movement, his releases include re mixes from DJ Sneak, underground label boss Hector Moralez and Grammy nominee, and house legend DJ Todd Terry.   Soon after Riki was introduced to DJ Sneak, ‘We Iz Underground’ was released on Sneak’s flagship label Magnetic with remixes from Hector Moralez and from the label boss himself. The record was produced by Riki Inocente and Darren Roach under the alias of 'Bluntz & Roachez’. Later that year they were asked to do a remix of one of Sneak’s original cuts 'Bodytalkin', a project he released on DJ Sneak Classic's label. In 2013, Riki dropped his first Gangstercast and now he’s back to deliver another.

I didn’t really choose the tracks, I just had a mix I know that all the tracks I have are bullets so I knew it was gonna turn out fresh.”   He went on to explain, what the House Gangster movement means to him “the House Gangster movement represents freedom of creativity, being able to be myself and be part of a family. That to me is what it’s all about, the bigger picture.  It is about being loyal to yourself, your supporters, and importantly, the music and its culture.”   https://www.imahousegangster.com https://www.facebook.com/imahousegangster https://www.instagram.com/imahousegangster https://www.twitter.com/imhousegangster

Born in 1977 in the UK town of Sheffield, Riki Inocente discovered House music after moving to London.  After a few years of religious record buying he was playing the best underground parties in London - at Ministry of Sound, The Arches, The Aquarium, Limelight, The Gas Club and Bagley’s, as well as starting his own BIG parties.  A spell in France led him to Phil Weeks and Robsoul Recordings who signed the track'Soultrain' for a sampler, which in turn led to hook-ups back in London with Hector Moralez, Chris Simmonds and Jordan Peak.  Producing music with Darren Roach of EBM under the moniker Bluntz & Roachez, the duo have signed music to Sneak's Magnetic Recordings, remixed for DJ Sneak Classics and will release an EP for our very own I'm A House Gangster imprint. Riki's Gangstercast saw him selecting tracks that best represent his own sound: "Deep, tribal, underground house with heavy b'lines and solid drums; Music that makes you move, and messes with your mind."  Speaking of the House Gangster movement he says: "We are a family, I've met HG fam all over the world and the link between all of them is their love for good house music.  It doesn't matter if you make, play, or just listen to it, too many people have devoted there lives to this scene through the years to let men in suits and their puppets take the name of our culture and try and cross brand it with a commercial euro pop sound. I ain't goin' to roll like that.  And that's why I do what I do, and why House Gangsters all over the world are doin' it to."  Amen to that!
