About Richie Haynes (c2eMusic)

Richie Haynes, widely known by his podcast and radio alias c2eMusic, is a distinguished soulful and deep house DJ and curator originally hailing from the North West of England, now based in Sydney, Australia. Growing up immersed in the vibrant club culture of Northern England during the late 1980s and early 1990s, he witnessed the rise of legendary DJs and began his own DJ journey in 1994, exploring genres like House, US Garage, UK Garage, Deep House, Funky House, Latin Vibes, Chicago Jack, and Soulful Vocal House (Pressure Radio, Humanitix).

In 2006, Richie relocated to Sydney, though his musical roots remained deeply intertwined with his UK influences (Pressure Radio). Since 2007, he has produced the c2eMusic podcast (Soulful Deep House), consistently releasing new mixes—either monthly or via radio broadcasts—and cultivated a global following fondly known as the “C2E family” (Humanitix, Apple Podcasts, Listen Notes).

Richie’s mixes are celebrated for their warm, chunky, bottom-heavy grooves, weaving an engaging journey from mellow beginnings to rhythmic high points before gently winding down—guaranteed to move both heart and feet. He cites influences from House legends such as Masters At Work, Dave Lee, Grant Nelson, Quentin Harris, DJ Spen, Karizma, Kerri Chandler, and more (Pressure Radio). He has been a long-standing resident DJ on Pressure Radio, and currently hosts a weekly show on Vocal Booth Radio—features that underscore his enduring presence on global house music airwaves. As of August 2025, c2eMusic celebrated its 300th podcast release, with an impressive archive spanning nearly two decades. He remains active on radio platforms and continues hosting live shows—his signature sound resounds from Sydney to worldwide listeners.
