Now I love working on projects like “Short Scores” from Eye Filmmuseum in Amsterdam. Although I was never classically trained, working on a score alongside with the archival footage from 1899? was quite a refreshing thing to do, giving it a more classical approach, I am very happy with the outcome

Here Goes Nothing 01 - Operator Radio - 6th August 2022

Ranie Ribeiro dives into a rich and vivid imagination set to a genre-less record filled with stuttering hi-hats, smooth chords and chopped-up synths. While Antwerp based vocalist and producer @afia-music lifts it all up with her soft and soulful vocals.

Here Goes Nothing 22 - Contemplation Special - Operator Radio - 18 March 2025

The product of home recordings during a time of reflection and personal growth, harpist Ranie Ribeiro delivers his first full length harp record Contemplation, a delicate collection of unassuming harp compositions and improvisations.

A record that has gone through multiple iterations, shapes and life-changes, Contemplation plays out like you’re sitting in the room minding your own business as Ribeiro’s playing fades in-and-out from the corner, accompanying your thoughts, your chores, your life as it all passes you by.

2024 was as a tumultuous period for Ribeiro, and the album’s contemplative and somber moments, captured deftly and naturally recorded at home are an open invitation for the listener. The organic recordings allow Ribeiro’s emotive playing to shine right through, making the album feel appropriately personal. The music is as much of a time capsule where Ribeiro could bury the entirety of 2024’s occurrences and struggles for others to pick up and give them a moment of pause, to reflect upon their own life.

In a musical world where over-processing and manipulation obfuscate intent and feeling; Contemplation is vulnerable. Putting his stake in the ground and claiming his artistic space, Ribeiro refuses to let heartbreak or insecurities stand in his way and his music comforts you so much it’ll empower you to feel the same.

Ranie Ribeiro - Spirit Of An Age

“Kanda” follows Ranie Ribeiro’s “Individuality EP” with a new series of singles. 

Taking cues from the broken beat and jazz scenes while giving it his own twist. "Kanda" comes as a solid blend between acoustic and electronic music with fast paced drum patterns, electric piano’s and elevating synth lines.

Tribute

The Supervillain - MF DOOM

Ranie Ribeiro's artistic journey has taken on new dimensions and disciplines. Formerly known by his DJ moniker D-Ribeiro, Ranie Ribeiro is solidifying himself as a harpist. 

One of the notable aspects of his transformation is not only embracing the role of a composer, but also as a stage performer. 
For award winning choreographer Sedrig Verwoert’s latest piece “The Ritual” (2023), Ribeiro was initially commissioned as a co-composer alongside Phantom Wizard. Eventually both self taught musicians performed live on stage while Sedrig Verwoert and Alanna Archibald executed the piece in elegant movements.  

In live performances at acclaimed venues such as Paradiso, Melkweg and de Doelen (2023) Ribeiro used the harp to experiment with classical, electronica and hiphop elements while creating and adding on to existing compositions he describes as meditative and vulnerable. Ribeiro also appeared with singer-songwriter Linde Schone on NPO 3FM and with the newly formed Kinship Ensemble at Ruigoord (2023).

Ribeiro unveils his talents as a score composer for the first time on Het Jaar Rond on Nous’Klaer (2021), commissioned by the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. Embracing the harp’s delicate resonance he went on scoring various projects such as Het Limburgse Landschap (2021), Short Scores (2022) commissioned by Eye Film, and most recently, Waka Nanga Mi (2023). The latter short film was screened at the International Film Festival Rotterdam and received massive public acclaim.
