Riva Starr
"Hij noemde zijn eerste EP ""I Was Drunk"" en zijn album ""If Live Gives You Lemons, Make Lemonade"" (net uit op Made To Play: het label van Jesse Rose). Riva Starr maakt en draait stevig stuiterende house met plaats voor grappige en opzwepende samples. Fun, maar ook stevig doordansen! Voor (oa) Gossip en Fat Boy Slim mocht hij remixen maken.
"The Riva Starr sound has many different angles to it; It's funny, sometimes it's grotesque and sometimes it's bouncy & dark, it really reflects my personality." (Riva Starr)
Snatch! (well of course!) Records, was launched in April 2010, and has already made a huge splash with releases from Donk Boys, David Keno, Riva's own 'Splendidub', and Thomas Schumacher. You have to watch Riva's incredible 'Splendidub' video, which again he made himself on Ableton... another YouTube sensation - sheer brilliance.
2010 was an insane year for Riva - he properly rocked all over the world... With an enviable energy, Riva has DJ'ed at every major club and festival including Cocoon; Space, Ibiza Rocks, the Radio 1 weekender & Pacha in Ibiza; UK festivals Glastonbury, The Big Chill, Creamfields & Love Box; Europes Dance Valley and Pukkelpop aswell as Fuji Rocks & Womb in Japan.
It's no wonder Riva was named as "Player of the Year" in IDJ, aswell as Mixmag's "Star of the Year"...
2011 is going to be just as massive for Riva, with a compilation mix on the cards, aswell as his own artist album, a slew of new productions and exciting signings for Snatch!
