This is a gallery of my "Conducting" videos and Mudmixes .
Richard Tucker. I was a lightman and dj in many of the top NYC clubs in the '70's and 80's. I worked at 12West, The Saint, The Underground, Studio 54 and The Limelight to name a few. I then went on to career as a tv commercial producer for Grey Advertising Worldwide. Now I get my creative side exercised by doing this kind of stuff. The videos are all completely improvised.. no rehearsal or pre-planning goes into it. For me, that's the art of it. Start moving to a song I know real well and see what happens. The Mudmixes are not automated.. they're done in an old-fashioned two turntable type of situation but not using vinyl. It's just two song playing on top of one another to see what happens musically. Sometimes its gets too crowded and creates musical mud, hence the name. I am in my early 50's, so this is just a fun way to keep my vehicle in motion.
I hope you enjoy what I do.
