As a founding member of Go Ventures (which continues to provide the largest electronic dance festivals, boasting well over 40,000 people at each event), Herick was one of the first DJ's to spearhead the electronic dance movement or "rave" scene in the late 80's, early 90's. He was the exclusive Los Angeles DJ to serve as a resident at the famed Bananas nightclub in Ensenada during the peak of their success, with legendary 12-hour sets that rocked party-goers from all over the world.

His fame grew to such great heights that he sold out world-renowned Hollywood Paladium, Shrine Auditorium and countless other venues. In the late 1990's he switched his focus from large-scale events to the 21 & over club scene. He helped create the soundtrack for the most influential club of the L.A. "Fashionista" era, The Mission, now known as Vertigo's. Herick continues to play to capacity crowds on a weekly basis and still finds the time to travel to the biggest and best events throughout Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and the bay area, including special features on the Style Network and The Peter Project.
