Hi Riley, thanks for talking to 新澳门六合彩开奖结果 about your journey since leaving school! You鈥檝e achieved a lot in the local electronic music scene already, and you鈥檙e only 22! How are you feeling about what you鈥檝e accomplished in such a short amount of time?

Hey guys, thanks for having me! Yeah, it鈥檚 been honestly such an experience over the last few years. Currently feeling quite proud and content in what I鈥檝e accomplished so far, especially in the last year or so during the current climate and restrictions

Tell us how this all started? Were you a music student while at 新澳门六合彩开奖结果, or did your talents emerge after school?

Kind of a crazy story with this one! Had always loved electronic music my whole life, and it was actually when I went to Googa in Year 10, where I had a lot of time to self-reflect on what I really wanted to do. I returned after 4 weeks and purchased my first DJ controller. I was very open with what I was doing with my schoolmates throughout the remainder of Year 10 and 11 and went on to DJ my friend鈥檚 16th and 17th birthday parties. However, it was when I was in Year 12, things got quite crazy… I was picked up by a very large underage music festival 鈥楪ood Life鈥�. I quickly moved from parties to festivals and ended up having to take time off school during my end-of-semester block exams to tour around Australia. My teachers weren鈥檛 impressed, but all my friends thought I was cool, so to be quite honest I felt like I was living the ultimate high school, DJ dream!

Were there any subjects or activities you undertook as a student that have been helpful in your career? 

I was always a creative, so actually picked up subjects such as Visual Art and Media. Surprisingly, never did music in school (not too sure why I didn鈥檛). However, writing and composing music is a big part of my career now. Ideally would have been good to at least do music!

To those of us less versed in the different styles within the electronic music genre, how would you describe your music?

Electro house/trap music. Always love to throw in a bit of hip hop into my live sets also.
 
You鈥檝e released two tracks this year 鈥� Deep Down and I鈥檒l Be There, with both performing extremely well in terms of downloads on platforms such as Spotify. You must be happy with that considering the success of your 2018 track Kairo?
 
Yeah, I鈥檓 pretty happy with my progression in terms of my music production and releases this year, however I鈥檓 wanting to take this again to another level. Last year I had a lot of time away from the stage, and a lot more time in the studio writing music. I鈥檝e been writing music seriously for the last 3 years now, and I鈥檝e discovered this is truly where my passion lies. Kairo was actually the first track I ever released, and I鈥檓 stoked to see it still performing well, all over the world!

You鈥檙e a performer, as well as a music producer - is that correct? What part of the job do you most enjoy?

Yes! That is correct. Two different sides to this career. I LOVE being on stage to a roaring crowd, flashing lights and crazy stage production. However, it can be draining at times, especially the travelling. Music production and the distribution process is probably what is most important to me currently, especially while events and venues are limited, but the future is looking bright!

There must be a lot of pressure in regards to the time requirements of someone in your profession 鈥� performing late at night, finding time to produce new music, travelling for gigs 鈥� how do you manage your time, as well as things like your health, in this type of industry so you stay on top of your profession?

Honestly, I鈥檇 be lying if I said I have it all worked out! It definitely becomes a lot to deal with at times, however I wouldn鈥檛 have it any other way. I feel like I manage my time by getting enough sleep, having enough time to myself, having a great support network, and unfortunately saying 鈥渘o鈥� to a lot of Saturday night plans due to work. If I鈥檓 not travelling on weekends, I鈥檓 locked away in the studio, creating more opportunities! 

Have you got any favourite memories or moments from your 新澳门六合彩开奖结果 days?  

When I鈥檇 have a double period over at the Trades Centre and eat chicken and chips with Mr Prinsloo on Wednesdays. I鈥檝e heard this still happens! Googa especially though.

What are long-term dreams? Where do you hope to be in the next few years?

I actually have no idea where I鈥檓 going to end up or what it鈥檚 going to look like. I am aiming to build a strong foundation here in Australia, before potentially living abroad, that鈥檚 always been a goal of mine. But for when that is, I have no clue. I鈥檓 just going to trust for process for now. I have an amazing team behind me also, which helps me keep motivated.

What advice do you have for any of our current 新澳门六合彩开奖结果 students looking to possibly venture down a similar career path as you?

Life鈥檚 short. Do something fun because success is whatever you think it is, not what someone else tells you it is.

Please tell us what you鈥檝e got going on in the coming months so we can keep an eye out for you?

Just finished writing one of my favourite tracks to date, which should be out in the next few weeks. Really excited to release this one as it鈥檚 in a new direction! Looking like all shows for the rest of the year will be QLD based due to the current restrictions, however I鈥檝e got a few more big ones before the year comes to the end! 

If deep pulsing Electro House & Trap music are your thing, keep an eye out for Riley and his high energy performances on Spotify, club shows and festivals near you!
