Change feat. Mr C

Richard West (born January 2, 1966) is a British DJ, musician, actor and rapper, who uses the monikers Mr C and Sycophant Slags. He is best known as the frontman for The Shamen during their most commercially successful era. West is also a house music DJ and co-owner/co-founder of London's The End nightclub with Layo from Layo and Bushwacka. He is considered a leading proponent of tech house, a fusion of house and techno music. In 1995 his DJing talents came to the attention of UK rave promoter/record company Fantazia who asked him to mix their new album Fantazia DJ Collection 3 - Back to the Old Skool. He's also mixed CDs Psycotrance vol 2, X-Mix 6 on Studio K7, Sunterrain 100% unreleased on his End recordings imprint & most recently Superfreq Express on his Superfreq label. Asked what the "C" in his moniker stands for, West said: “The most shocking one is cunt. It’s what I tell glossy magazines... A story I like to give to more religious people would be c as in the constant measure of the speed of light, and with c equaling light, that would make me the prince of light who has vanished into darkness — which is always a fun one. And the real reason is when I was a kid, I used a CB Radio and it was totally illegal, you have to have a handle. I called myself Chelsea Boy because I was a Chelsea supporter." Needing an MC name as a rapper, he modified Chelsea Boy into Mr. C.
