Born and raised in New York, Sophia Riv’s sound is a reflection of who she is. From her Latin roots to love for the local music scene, she balances NYC’s grittiness with global influences to create a unique, atmospheric blend spanning cultures and genres. Dynamic and always fresh, her most recent sounds have incorporated elements from Colombia sub-genres, hardgroove, and hyper/synth pop. It’s sexy it’s infectious, and it’s something that will keep you dancing all night long.Recently at Sincerely, Ophelia, Xpizza · often with y2aura, SHRAY, BABEITSPURR, none of them here that night

their own biography
the whole biography
Gi Gi is a producer and DJ drawn to the porous edges of electronic music, where atmosphere and motion sit in constant negotiation. His productions unfold refractively, assembling fragments of sampled rhythm and texture into forms that resist settling in one place for long. Depending on how they’re encountered, traces of chillout drift, shoegaze haze, dub pressure, and slow-burn psychedelia come into focus, though never fully resolving into any one lineage. What anchors the work is a careful sense of tension: rhythm that never pushes too hard, ambience that never drifts too far. Even at its most diffused, there’s always a pulse underneath, a quality that links his music less to genre than a lineage of producers interested in suspension, repetition, and tonal pressure. That same sensibility carries into his DJ sets, where weightier grooves, ambient passages, and hypnotic transitions are handled with equal patience. The result is a sound that can inhabit smoke-filled clubs, improvised listening spaces, and festival rooms without changing its internal logic. His releases span Mood Hut (CA), Good Morning Tapes (AUS), Quiet Time (USA), and INDEX:Records (UK), alongside appearances on NTS, The Lot Radio, Refuge Worldwide, and Kiosk Radio. While rooted in a shifting international network of DIY spaces, he’s also appeared at Public Records, Miscellania, and Ormside Projects, sharing bills with artists including Huerco S., ML Buch, PLO Man, RAMZi, Laraaji, and Perila.Their RA profile lists Quiet Time, Ways Inner Pass, INDEX: Records and Good Morning Tapes.Recently at Bossa Nova Civic Club, Easy Lover · often with DEV, Baroque Hoe, adobeprincess, none of them here that night
