Birthed in Brooklyn from her home studio during lockdown, producer and stay-at-home DJ Lauren Ritter unveiled her own, newly-minted label Rift Vision in 2020 with four deep, glittering compositions, including “Thirst Trap,” a collaboration with Oakland-based poet and lyricist Tenesha The Wordsmith (On The Corner).
Tenesha and Lauren quickly forged a bi-coastal friendship, chatting on Zoom about all aspects of their lives, sharing fragments of poetry and slices of musical compositions. It soon became clear that they had more music they wanted to share with the world, and with that, Tenesha hopped on a plane to New York and the duo spent a long weekend in the studio writing and recording, laying the foundation for what was to become this new project, “Particles of Sound.”
The EP showcases their dynamic range, with tracks like “Dopamine” and “Perfect Match” exploring ethereal rhythms and introspective musings, while the title track “Particles of Sound” urges you to “Clap…. Stomp…. Move!”
Release date: May 6th, 2022.
