Originally from North East of Italy, Riva has been trained classic piano and modern singing at Veneto Institute City of Thiene under the direction of Maestro Lorenzo Fattambrini who collaborate with various vocal projects. While singing he got to know a dj from his local town; not long took him to developed a deep interest in electronic music especially towards melodic techno and techno. London based, Riva has been considered a heartful and versatile artist who conveys his energy through melancholic, dark and vibrant sets.

These are all the brand names of Dan Chorlton.
DANEC is the main focus - it's melodic techno
Some DJ is breakbeat & drum n bass

This is the SC home for Kimberfest - our annual summer festival, and Kimber Sessions - a series of events through which Alexandra & Kai invite you to join them to experience a world class DJ in the private, intimate and unique space of Kimber Cottage. 

Artists we have previously hosted at Kimber include Frankey & Sandrino, Jonas Saalbach, Sebastian Mullaert, D-Nox, Roy Rosenfeld, John Monkman, Eli Nissan, Tripswitch, Gai Barone, Ed Real, and many more, some of whose recordings you will find on this page.

Kimberfest is is about celebrating friendships while having the opportunity to meet new people. It’s about enjoying nature and open space and being away from the city. It’s about our collective love of electronic music, and experiencing the variations within it. It’s about creating a framework for magical experiences, unique conversations and for making new discoveries. It’s the coming together of a beautiful collection of fascinating minds and souls, of uniquely talented people who come from all over the world, who get that life is for living, and who we've had the fortune to meet and get to know.

"Electronic music is more than just beats and synthesized sounds.  Electronic music, has the power to evoke a wide range of emotions in listeners. These emotions can be evoked by different elements of a track, such as the melody, rhythm, harmony, and lyrics. Emphasizing melody and harmony in its composition,  often features catchy, and rich, complex harmonies, creating a more emotive and expressive sound compared to some other forms of music." - That’s what I like.
