Richard Bishop was one of the first rock managers in North America to embrace electronic music. Over the last 20 years his clients have included Paul Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyk, BT, The Crystal Method (one of only 5 U.S. electronic artists to have earned a platinum album), Listenbee, Jason Bentley, and Borgore. Richard also partners in Lokal Legend records with his client Rami Afuni. Lokal Legend's first signing was Kiesza whose single "Hideaway" hit number 1 in 22 countries. They are currently working Listenbee's record "Save Me".
Richard’s expertise includes a wide knowledge of licensing and, rights issues, and, as a manager with nearly 30 years experience, his relationships in the U.S. electronic community are unparalleled. In 2010, he joined Red Light to form their Electronic Division with Steve Satterthwaite and Randy Reed. One of Richard’s first projects was to act as an executive producer on the highly acclaimed documentary Re:Generation.
