Riva Starr has been flying under the radar for the last few years, but 2010 is set to make him an absolute superstar. His early releases on Dirtybird were an absolute bass lover’s dream. Groovy, dirty and full of enough bleeps to make even the most loyal tech house fans take notice, his new work is off the charts. From his killer rework of Malente’s “I Like It” to the seductively strange accordion appeal of “I Was Drunk”, he might well be the one to follow in the coming year. His new album, “If Life Gives You Lemons, Make Lemonade”, is available now on Made To Play Records so don’t waste time and just go and get it!
Here are a few tracks to get ya started, just in case you might be new to his sound.
I Was Drunk (Jeff Doubleu’s) – Riva Starr
Juice and Gin (Riva Starr’s) – The Young Punx
My Hi Tops (Riva Starr Acid Mix) – Plump DJ’s
