Hooked Podcast 022 :: TRIC

https://www.facebook.com/Tric.Elevate http://elevatemanagement.net/artists/tric/ Growing up the son of a DJ and vinyl collector, Tric was surrounded by music from an early age. Finding his way from 80’s electro to garage, drum ‘n’ bass and finally house, he hasn’t looked back, as house music became the foundation of his musical life. Since recording his first mixes back in 2008, Tric has performed at Moustache Bar in London, held a residency at Townhouse in Guernsey, played and hosted events at Space Ibiza, Sankeys Ibiza and Mumak Ibiza. After finishing university, Tric decided to make the move to Ibiza in order to more fully immerse himself in the music he loves, quickly gaining attention from island heads, landing gigs at Plastik Beach, Es Vivè, Bubbles, Guarana, as well as several villa after parties, alongside DJs like Mark Ramsey, Chad Andrew, Sebastian Paiza, Randall M, Bella Sarris, Patrick Grooves, Ele Mondiale, David Gtronic, Remo, Kevin Cook and Webby. However, Tric’s passion for the scene extends beyond the glitz and glam of the DJ box. Over the summer, he spent countless hours helping with setup and production for parties like “Defected In The House”, “It’s All Gone Pete Tong” and “F*** Me I’m Famous”. He also caught the attention of the owner of Sankeys Ibiza, due to his sheer persistence. Tric ended up assisting with promotion for Carnival, Diynamic, Fuse, Mulletover and VIVa Warriors. His hard work, passion and determination didn’t go unnoticed! Ambitious as ever, Tric continues to look towards new goals and dreams. Currently, he’s in the process of developing his own branded events company, ELEVATE. Based upon the ideals and vision that have helped carry Tric through all of his successes, Elevate looks to reach out and engage with the crowd in many different ways by pushing the boundaries of night life and electronic music. Giving each person on the dance floor an Elevated musical experience! Tric is now based in Ibiza. Infused with the experiences of his amazing 2012/13 season's, He’s more driven than ever, constantly looking to further his understanding of the scene, and always looking for new ways to give back. Of course, he’ll continue to follow his first love of DJ-ing, by playing a special set at each of his own Elevate events.
