What happens when an established house producer wants to write songs? What happens when they want to do things which might not appeal to their existing audience? That is what this week's guest is currently discovering, as he makes the finishing touches to an album that sees him step out of his comfort zone and into unfamiliar surroundings.
Riva Starr is one of the most successful house producers of the past couple of decades, starting out on Dirty Bird and becoming a fixture of the biggest house label of them all, Defected, as well as collabbing with huge names including Diplo, Fatboy Slim, and Todd Terry.
We discuss the processes behind the forthcoming record, running recording sessions in LA, the challenges of working with big names and pro musicians, his backstory in Italy and breakbeat, and a ton of other stuff.
This is a great conversation with one of the good guys. Get involved!
