^DJ Ricky Ryan aka Can Costa

Anyone with even a passing interest in the house, techno or progressive house genres will either know of Ricky Ryan, or should make a point of getting on board pronto. Ricky's profile has grown substantially over the past two years, gaining attention being mentored by the likes of Sasha and John Digweed. It's not often that you come across a really outstanding DJ, combining oodles of talent with a livewire personality. But Ricky Ryan is just that. In fact, there's a major movement going on in Argentina, with Ricky one of the leaders. Without banging on too much, his success is exemplified with his show on Proton Radio setting a new record of 1,000 simultaneous listeners, along with rave reviews from Sander Kleinenberg, Danny Howells, and Desyn Masiello.
Ricky has toured extensively worldwide, played at the WMC in Miami, and landed a residency at Warung Club in Brazil, just to mention a few names. Ricky's sound is distinguished by a broad variety of music styles, from beautiful warm house, to big pumping dance floor anthems. Along with being one of the world's hottest up-and-coming DJs, Ricky Ryan is just as well respected for his remixes and productions. You could loosely categorise him in the progressive house genre, kind of like Luke Fair, however what really grabs me is that Ricky's really cut his own sound, taking the listener on an awesome soundscape from rock and alternative, to silky smooth house and pumping progressive. Under his Can Costa moniker, Ricky is also a prolific producer and remixer is his own right. The stage is set, and Ricky is quickly becoming one of the World's leading underground music acts...
