  Ira Heinichen (pronounced hi-ne-kin) began jockeying at the age of 13 in the far north of California. Ambition turned him professional three years later when he and three other high school teenagers started Bassline Sound a mobile disc jockey company. In 2000, Heinichen stumbled across house music and was instantly captivated by such giants as Danny Tenaglia and progressive moguls John Digweed, Paul Oakenfold and later Max Graham. Soon after Heinichen was picked up by regional record label Bassline Records which saw his first and second mixed compilation releases in the summer and fall of 2001 under the moniker DJ RD.

It would be the spring of 2003 before Heinichen was to release another compilation, this time under his own name, but it was this double-disc .Footsteps. that gained the attention of Los Angeles DJ and writer for [former] Lotus magazine Daniel .Scrappy Dan. Webb who reviewed the album as captivating and flawlessly executed. Gaining a reputation, Heinichen relocated to Los Angeles that summer. At the same time Heinichen dove into writing and that winter saw his first production, a bootleg remix of Andain.s .Beautiful Things. for Tiesto.s Black Hole Records and 2004 saw the independent release of several other original tracks and remixes, a monthly residency at orange county hotspot Ziing.s, and the release of his fourth mixed compilation .Saturday:PM. as DJ RD.

2005 has seen Heinichen emerge onto a larger stage with a prestigious residency at Plush Lounge, host of the monthly radio show .Elemental Underground. on Frisky Radio (www.friskyradio.com).

In 2006 Ira took over as director of special shows on friskyRadio and then signed on as Label Manager of friskyRecords in 2007.

2008 saw the launch of friskyRecords with the mixed compilation "Destinations" by Pole Folder which instantly produced a top 10 hit, followed shortly after by another in Clubbervision's "Contrast" release. With so much more to come, including several new shows and productions, stay tuned!
