Biography

Midnight Traffic, aka Rishi, started to listen to music from very limited resources in late 2004, which made him aware of the genres of music. This took him to a nightclub, where he began to question – What is a DJ? How is he playing music? What is the DJ equipment called?  The answers to these questions were not appealing enough. So Rishi, in early 2006, decided to take this curiosity to a whole new level, and thus began his love for the profession of DJing. From Hyderabad, Rishi started mixing behind the console for private parties and a lot of social events. Not being restricted to one genre, he played every kind of music made. A simple deal was made that if the crowd moves to his music, he will play it with the best execution possible. Rishi made a mark in the clubbing scene for his great execution style by late 2008. But his best was yet to come! The year was 2009 when Rishi was introduced formally to EDM. Rishi is an instinctive performer with a genuine enthusiasm for entertaining. As the years passed, Rishi loved the groove behind the console, but somewhere something was missing. By this time, almost every new DJ was either playing the same kind of music or wanted to start to play the same style! So Midnight Traffic was created after being influenced by the sounds of Richie Hawtin, Dubfire, Carlcoz and many more.
