Ricky Stone - Hong Kong / China has it's first TOP 100 DJ in the World DJ rankings
In 2005, Sheffield-born Stone's fans turned out in mass force to vote him into British dance music authority DJ Magazine's top 100 DJs list this year, making him the first China / Hong Kong - based DJ to crack the elite list.
When Sasha's Involver Tour came to China in 2004, Stone was perfectly placed to introduce the DJ legend to the Middle Kingdom's dance floors. Stone played alongside Sasha at every stop on the tour, setting the tone for the Chinese debut of one of the world's most sought after DJs.
Sasha's tour of China was a high-profile reminder that Asia's dance music scene, primed for years by booming economies and rapidly developing youth cultures, is on the verge of explosive growth. Stone's early years in the region, fuelled by the continent's infectious dynamism, saw him bring his own unique brand of electronic beats and breaks to Asia's best clubs, playing at Tokyo's Womb, Taipei's Ministry of Sound, Singapore's Liquid Room and Shanghai's Rojam, amongst others.
This October sees Stone setting up base in what is possibly the hottest city in the world at the moment--Shanghai--after nearly four successful years in Hong Kong. This coincides with the opening of a new Shanghai office for RNR Asia, the management and booking agency Stone helped start in May. RNR Asia's portfolio of events already includes the deep, subliminal vibes of Danny Howells at Shanghai's glamorous Park 97 and the Chinese debut of Australian innovators Nubreed.
