Risch

I have been lucky enough to have been introduced to EDM at a very young age. I love how the sounds can affect your mood. How they can bring back amazing memories. My passion is being able to send the energy out to the floor and feel it amplified back. I absolutely loveeee a good crowd. I love life! So many fun adventures! My inspirations range from classics such as LA Style to funk and raging tunes. I love the combination of music that creates anything that makes people swing their hips. Every time I step up I have a huge smile on my face that stays long after an event is over. I love the energy on a dance floor, the unconditional joy and elation. So much yayyyyyy!

In my off time you will find me up in the mountains or jumping off tall object so that I can fly! This life has so many opportunities for adventure and woohoo! I love it!

I was asked if I 'was living' a long time ago. At first my reaction was simple ‘of course I am living life’. After all I was going out with friends, heading to the mountains on weekends… yet something was missing. The question kept nagging at me. It took years to find the answer to the question I hadn’t realized I was asking myself; I wasn’t living. I was going through the motions of life.

Life was a routine. I told myself that I was happy. I would go to work at my typical 9-5 job, commute home, have supper and then use my free time. This meant watching TV or going to a restaurant, pub or other normal urban activities. I had a solid 4hrs of time to myself once I was done work and the commute. I was always excited for Fridays (TGIF!) and would plan out what I would do to keep my life ‘fun’. But deep down I wanted more.....

My excapewas to play music on my CDj's. Then, over time that transitioned into producing using samples... and the more I was learning... the less I used samples over my own creations. It is such an internally stimulating process to take a few piano notes and build entire songs around that melody. This is why my passion for music is so deep; The escape, the pure joy, the creativity... Its a world that stands apart from the default in the most beuatiful way. Then we carry that energy into the default world and our daily lives get better. Music pulls us back to the memories of those pure moments and then we mark our calenders for the next festival! yay!!!!
