We are RISE, a Berlin based collective and label with cosmopolitan roots. Our members are Hyenah, Walter Griot, GHEDI, Jane Ryse and Ukai  Collectively our members are from Nigeria, Angola, Congo, Germany, Senegal and Ethiopia. We are heavily inspired by African House music, and equality, diversity and social justice is at the core of our identity.

We strive to create spaces where people can feel safe to express themselves, no matter their ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, or social status. 

We aim to distill and deliver some of the core tenets of African music, namely dance and emotion, to provide some color and warmth in Berlin’s harsh grayscale palette. 

Here at RISE we aim to take HOUSE and TECHNO off the beaten path.

Sound propels your sails through the darkest times
Sound is an echo the supreme ones wield to create
Sound inspires me to achieve more

Laolu (Innervisions / Freude Am Tanzen, CH) 

Released on Innervisions at the end of 2015, Laolu's remix of Dele Sosimi's 'Too Much Information' has been a number one hit and Dixon and Âme's favourite track of the year. Laolu was born out of the love of a Nigerian father and a Swiss mother who, most appropriately, met in record store in Berlin. He spent his first years in Nigeria where his parents owned "The Gallery", a club dedicated to Jazz and Soul. And so began his musical education. After relocating to France , he attended music school in order to learn saxophone and music theory, but upon discovering Detroit techno pioneers Derrick May and Carl Craig at the age of 18, he sold his saxophone to buy his first drum machine. 
He then moved to Geneva where he started DJing and met Kadebostan who quickly became a musical co-conspirator in the studio and as a DJ partner in their "Caracas Club". In 2010, Laolu released his first EP "O Fantasma" on the young Berlin based label Clap Your Hands. A deep tune for special club moments that has gained attention from DJs like Osunlade or Ruede Hagelstein. During the following years, his collaborations and solo work have led him to produce music for labels including Innervisions, Freude Am Tanzen, Clap Your Hands, Mental Groove, Fenou, Baobab Music and Blooming Soul Records. He kicked off 2014 writing and producing Sene Kela for Mr Raoul K new album, which gathered love and support from Dixon, Mano Le tough or Adriatique. 
As a DJ, he has built a solid reputation in his hometown of Geneva but also played across Europe in Berlin, Paris , Krakow and Tbilisi. Ruff techno, heart warming house, his style both sophisticated and raw at once allows him to swing moods and match the feverish atmosphere of any club.
