Richard Les Crees is an American DJ, record producer, remixer and songwriter from NJ. As a teen, RLC was influenced by his older brother, a DJ at the time, and learned the art of spinning records by 14. Richard then began investing in music production gear in the late 80's and began developing house and hip-hop tracks. In 1994, Richard released early productions and remixes as FILTHY RICH on i! Records. He teamed up w/ Damon Trueitt as "Somore" and landed on the UK charts with "I Refuse (What you want)". Richard has also appeared on Hipbone, Kult, XL, and Locked On as FILTHY RICH. In 1998, Richard had a desire to express a more 'musical' sound, and so the "RICHARD LES CREES" moniker was born. He collaborated with Vicki Bell and Ray Grappone of Hipbone Records and their artists during the first phase of 'Richard Les Crees', and released his first RLC Remix on Hipbone Records entitled "City Got Soul". He went on to release his first EP on i! Records entitled "Growth". In the early 2000's, Richard continued to release productions and remixes, as well as two LPs (BAHIA & PARADISE) on i! Records and Distance Music, and played in clubs throughout the world. From 2006-2011, Richard decided to take a break from music production, and pursue a career in IT. He continued to nurture his love of music, but mainly as a listener. In 2012, with a fresh perspective and a sense of clarity, Richard embraced some of the latest music production tools with a new intensity, and began to develop short 'sketches' to sharpen his skills and get back in the game. In 2015, Richard was officially back on the scene with a remix of "Journey
