ARRVL Records Showcase w/ Ritchie Haydn - 03.10.25

 PROGRESS/HOUSE +TECH HOUSE +MELODIC HOUSE 

Ritchies' musical roots began with a passion for the trance movement in the mid 90's and that distinctive Balearic sound. His love of soulful house and disco from the likes of Soulfuric Records and Defected tuned his ears to the structure of powerful melodies, wicked vocals and hitting the club scene to appreciate it all live. 

This was his inspiration to dive in to DJing and producing electronic music, which was soon followed by opportunities to perform in niche venues across London.

Since then Ritchie has performed at venues across the UK & Ibiza, with particular focus on the Capital scene including, Horse & Groom, Egg, Ministry Of Sound, McQueen, E1, Orange Yard, the incredible Ibiza Sunset Boat Parties, Eden and Pacha. Supporting brand promotions such as the famous Ibiza brand Pukka Up, London Sound Academy, ARRVL, The Gallery. EXiT, Selador.

His style fuses a range of influences from Nu disco, vocal, progressive & deep house right through to tech house and techno, depending on the time, space & environment.

His passion and love of progressive House, electronica & Deep techno, saw him co-found events and record label brand ARRVL 6 years ago - focussed on showcasing the music which takes followers & fellow genre lovers on memorable, emotive, musical narratives.

Ritchie also runs the house, disco and indie dance events brand, Social Beats, with over 20 events across London and beyond.

In the last 6 years, he has focused his attention to the production side, with a number of EP and single releases on labels such as ICONYC, Coldharbour, NYLO, 64K Recordings, Krafted Underground., Capital Heaven, Mango Alley and Manual. And there’s much more to come in 2024.

'I cherish the sounds that we are able to create using digital, and analog machines - an extension of our human minds and imagination.'

AKIVA is a melodic house and techno producer/DJ/live act based in Los Angeles producing and curating music inspired by the progressive house scene of the early 2000s. 

Topping Beatport charts with music on underground labels such as 3rd Avenue, Arey, ARRVL, Balkan Connection, Dear Deer, Deedmusic Berlin, Gibbon Records, Hexagonal, ICONYC, JourneyDeep, Later Caked Melodic, Mystique Music, Pro B Tech, Sound Avenue, Saturo Sounds and more. 

AKIVA has shared the decks with who’s who of electronic dance music greats such as Alan Nieves, Alex O'Rion, Amber Long, Amir Telem, Anthony Pappa, AUDIOGLIDER, Cid Inc, Cream (PL), Dave Seaman, Dennis Ferrer, Desna, Francesco Lombardo, Galestian, Guzy, Hernan Cattaneo, Higgins, Ian Dillon, Jaap Lighthart, Jay Hill, Jonas Saalbach, Juheun, Juliane Wolf, Khen, Lonya, Made in Paris, Markus Saarlander, Miyagi, Modus, Pete Moss, Squire, Sonic Union, Steve Marx, Steve Parry, Technasia, Viviana Toscanini, and more. 

AKIVA started his journey through music with Jaco Pastorius. The rhythmically diverse and bass-driven fusion style, presented to him by his father and uncle's jazz records, prompted his purchase of an Ibanez bass guitar. Along with jazz, he developed a love of smooth tenor and alto saxophones and, string sounds of the violin and viola through his love of classical music. 

While he was jamming out to heavy metal and classic rock in high school, Akiva discovered electronic music on NYC's KTU station. AKIVA immediately started playing progressive and goa-psytrance songs with his friends at parties. House and techno music were still considered underground at that time. As the scene grew, both in NYC and abroad, he spent waking hours adding to his music collection and refining his production skills. 

AKIVA brings passion from all of his beloved musical genres, world music, and the classical inspirations of old school techno and house, focusing on the ethereal and deep melodies found across the world today.
