Biography of Richy Penny
The Kings Cross spark with an Ibizan twist
Richy Penny's DJ booth moves between Australian club culture and the hedonistic pressure of Ibiza. Formed in the nightlife pulse of Kings Cross, in Sydney, he gained ground as a selector of direct energy, fluid mixes, and quick dancefloor reading. His first CDJ sessions arrived at the beginning of the 2010s at the ZANEROBE office on Sydney's North Shore, with Robbie Lowe as one of the figures who helped him solidify his technical foundations. From that base, he entered the circuit supporting international artists, building an identity marked by punchy house, groove, and a very recognizable festive sense.
A selector for big stages and small rooms
His journey has placed him alongside names like FISHER, Nic Fanciulli, Kaz James, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Set Mo, Bag Raiders, Little Fritter, and Cut Snake. That position as a trusted DJ to warm up, sustain, or elevate the night explains his presence in very different formats: festivals, brand parties, beach clubs, and seasonal clubs. He has also been linked to the Hard FIZZ environment, an Australian beverage and party culture project, through which he has participated in activations, afterparties, and events with a clearly electronic component. In that intersection between leisure, community, and the dancefloor, much of his profile is understood: more than a producer with an extensive catalog, Richy Penny functions as a booth agitator with craft and direct contact with the audience.
Ibiza, The Bunker, and the record label leap
His international projection is consolidated with the Ibiza-Australia connection. Black Temple places him between Australia and Ibiza, with international representation and a residency associated with [UNVRS] and Hï Ibiza. At [UNVRS], his role within the FISHER universe focuses especially on The Bunker, a space where he is scheduled during the season, in addition to shared dates with top-tier artists. In parallel, his facet as a producer begins to be documented with Soft Chaos, a collaboration with Javi Bora released on Too Many Rules in June 2026 and categorized within house and tech house. That release reinforces a stage in which his name stops circulating only as a stage DJ and also enters electronic music platforms such as Beatport, Traxsource, and Discogs.
Dancefloor magnetism and resident craft
Richy Penny occupies a specific area of the scene: that of the DJ capable of adapting to the big event without losing the club touch. His sound prioritizes elastic bass, functional percussion, and clean transitions, with space for house, tech house, and more accessible techno. The combination of charisma, Australian trajectory, and Ibizan residency keeps him as a useful figure for lineups looking for immediate energy, social connection, and a frictionless dancefloor.
