Richard AKA DJ Retched
Retro Radio Australia’s Resident Mix DJ Richard is an entrepreneur with a lifelong passion for music.
His DJing career has taking him across the globe from London to Sydney and most places in-between. In his bold and pioneering style, Richard joined ‘Radio Caroline’, a pirate radio station positioned precariously in the North Sea.
Shortly after Richard landed the ultimate radio gig at Dubai FM in the United Arab Emirates.
After moving to Sydney Australia in the late 90s, Richard started his involvement in community radio with 2MCR 103.3 in the Macarthur region. Needless to say, at the same time, Richard also enjoyed working the nightclub circuit of Europe, Dubai, and Sydney.
Alex Sweeney
Originally from Dundee, Scotland, but home is Bournemouth in England, and has been for the last 22 years.
I was fortunate that when I left school, I started working, as a DJ, in Bars and Clubs, and straight away, I began a lifelong passion for music. The natural progression for me was to move into Radio Presenting, which I did for many years in Scotland on Radio Tay, hosting daily shows and a weekly Soul Show.
I left Broadcasting and became a Night Club Manager, and I was lucky enough to manage several large clubs across the UK in Birmingham, Bournemouth, Cardiff, Channel Islands etc, and the London Hippodrome in Leicester Square, where I was fortunate to work with people like Paul McCartney, Bon Jovi, Wham and Prince amongst others. I also owned my own Karaoke Bar in Bournemouth for many years.
Five years ago, I decided to return to broadcasting, which I did with my local hospital radio station and for the last 2 and a half years, I have been presenting two shows a week, both on Durham OnAir and Radio Caroline Flashback.
