  the whole biography

  NYC-based producer and DJ Lauren Ritter (All Day I Dream, ReSolute, Rift Vision) traffics in personal, groove-driven, minimal, melodic house, and tech house. Her 2015 and 2016 All Day I Dream releases quickly became favorites among fans and critics, being described as “hypnotic,” “mesmerizing,” and “a bittersweet headrush.” Swoon, and title track, Lark, have since been featured on several BBC Radio 1 Essential Mixes, expanding her reach well beyond the underground. Lauren unveiled her own imprint Rift Vision in 2020 during lockdown and has since released three emotive EPs encompassing her own solo compositions, collaborative works with Oakland-based poet Tenesha The Wordsmith (On The Corner), and remixes by lauded talent such as Octo Octa, Lawrence, Jenifa Mayanja, and Rrao. Ritter has also been back DJing in full force, with appearances incl the Zamna festival NYC & Miami, Do Not Sit Miami, Shameless Seattle, ReSolute NYC, and Public Records NYC, Robot Heart California, All Day I Dream Ibiza, and more. 2024 & 2025 saw a long-awaited return to Lee Burridge’s All Day I Dream label, with Ritter being featured in their winter compilation.2025 started off with a bang, with Ritter making her Chilean debut at Piknic Electronik. She will be returning to production full-force, with multiple releases on her Rift Vision label planned for throughout the year.
