As we're stuck in this weird coronavirus shelter-in-place world, I'm making a habit of recording my live streams and sharing them on Soundcloud. These span various genres, times, vibes etc. – some liquid drum n' bass, some mellow morning vibes, some later night-time grooves. Enjoy while you're at home with the rest of us

Torie's QuaranTunes – Livestream Sets 2020

Torie | All My Sounds, Everything

torie | sun ☀ [groovy house/deep/minimal/disco etc.]

Inquiry Collective Live Sets

Tech Gods

It's been a hot minute since I've put a F|S mix out! But as the weather gets warmer, pandemic restrictions are lifting, & there's finally a sense of optimism and genuine stoke about the future in the air, I've been finding myself loving the groovy tunes of house/disco/throwbacks & the like. 

This mix is a collection of tracks intended to create joy – listen while you're hanging out with friends, enjoying the sunshine, starting your day, or just want to get a good dance in. Here's to summer, to returning to dancefloors, and to that moment of pure bliss when you're lost in the sound. Enjoy!

Forms | States 07 - Torie [Summer Grooves]

I had the absolute pleasure of opening up the floor for KiNK's live set – one of my long-time favorite artists, and a true magician in his craft – and Galen of Sunset Soundsystem. Dive into 2 hours of minimal, classic, groovy house tunes and onwards... 

It was an early August night at Public Works SF, my first time performing on the main stage at PW & playing on the V10 mixer. I wanted my sound & energy to grow with the crowd, to bring excitement to the dancefloor as people filled in... to prepare for what was an incredible night of music from the artists to follow. 

This gig was a last-minute add-on for me as I filled in for a friend & I couldn't have been more honored to step into her shoes for this moment. It was also the same week that the music community lost two house music legends - K-HAND and Paul Johnson - so I felt it was only fitting to pay my respects with a few of their tracks as well. 

Press play & enjoy ze grooves ✨

Torie - Live at KiNK [opening set]

Quite literally, we're on a boat - a Desert Hearts boat party cruising around the San Francisco Bay, to be exact 🚢 

Torie and Jessica took to the rooftop deck to finish out the month of June with an hour of grooves – house, disco, breakbeats, techno, and a little bit of everything in between.  Thanks to DJ Dials & the Desert Hearts crew for having us out. This was a blast n' a half 🔊

Torie b2b Jessica - Live at Desert Hearts Boat Party, SF

We cruised to the trash fence for a Tuesday morning sunrise cruise on the @dusty-rhino-1 - a blissful adventure to watch the sun peak over the mountains in the Black Rock desert (and play music to the Burning Man marathon runners, lol)with a gathering of some of my favorite people.

Playing sunrise on an art car is always one of the most unique experiences I think you can create on playa – this was an absolutely surreal morning & I am so grateful. 

Hope you enjoy this set as much as I did playing it (and reliving it over and over in my head). 

*re-recorded @ home bc I suck at recording my sets on playa :)

Torie - Tues. Sunrise on Dusty Rhino @ Trash Fence | Burning Man 2022

April 2025

Curiosity is such a special event, it truly feels like a family reunion every year I attend. Had a blast playing my first night time set this time around. Got to play what I've been really into lately, weird techno and dark UKG. Hope you enjoy! ❤️

Some artists I played in the set: Fixate, COIDO, French II, Bodhi, BAKEY, Addison Groove, Adam Pits, among others :)

P.S. I was thrilled to hear so many of these songs live at LIB this year 🤩

Torie @ The Garden Party w Newman 10.5.2019

As San Francisco heads into a "shelter in place" lockdown for the next few weeks, I've found myself with ample time to explore more tunes I don't get to play out often. I love liquid drum n' bass in the mornings, and haven't played this genre in awhile, so this was a fun way to dive back into things.

This is a snippet of a live stream I tested out on my Facebook page this morning – a wonderful 40 minutes of liquid that really helped get me through this weird Monday.

I'll be livestreaming + recording my sets more throughout the next few weeks – tune in at www.facebook.com/yotorieee.

Torie – Liquid DnB Test Run [Quarantunes Live Stream Set]

Here's a snippet of my Facebook live stream this morning – an easy 40 minutes of some of my favorite tunes to get into the day's groove. Use it for your morning cup of coffee, your yoga flow, your kickstart into the workday... use it to feel a little more sane amidst the pandemic chaos.

You can watch the livestream video here: https://www.facebook.com/torie.rich1/videos/10222665542096572/ 

I'll be streaming more on Facebook and Twitch throughout the week –

Torie - Morning Movements I [Quarantunes Live Stream Set]

I had the pleasure of playing @inquirycollective's weekly live stream series this past Friday and decided to switch the second half of my set to another liquid DnB run. I've immensely enjoyed exploring this genre a bit more during the coronavirus quarantine – it's a favorite for early mornings and late nights. Enjoy!

Torie – Inquiry Late Night Liquid [Quarantunes Live Stream Set]

Playing at DISTRIKT has been a goal of mine since I started as a DJ, as I’ve spent many dusty afternoons enjoying tunes in the dust here. Having the chance to spin from noon-1pm on Thursday was an incredible way to kick off the day – it gave me a unique opportunity to get people out of bed, moving and grooving, and ready to dance for hours to come. This set was so much fun to curate, craft and share with a growing dancefloor, and playing on the legendary DISTRIKT soundsystem was an absolute treat.

 

"Listen in and take the ride! I hope it brings you the same feelings of excitement and energy I aimed to bring to the floor that day, priming the rest of the afternoon as we moved towards the weekend vibes of the playa. Much thanks and love to the DISTRIKT team for bringing me out, and for the continued support. I hope to be back on these decks soon! Enjoy )’("

Torie - DISTRIKT Sound - Burning Man 2019

Back again with more mellow morning beats for this edition of Quarantunes – a dive into some favorite, smooth tunes that started my day. It's not as clean as I'd love the mixing to be, but nobody's perfect – and Ioved this soundtrack too much to not share.

Move on your mat, move at your desk, move while you're making breakfast, move as you spend this time at home... move together, and we'll get through this together. 

Watch the first 30 minutes on Facebook Live: https://www.facebook.com/torie.rich1/videos/10222745387532658/ 

I'll be streaming more on Facebook and Twitch over the quarantine as well –

Torie – Morning Movements II [Quarantunes Live Stream Set]

@icarusartcar held our first Space Brunch live broadcast yesterday on the interwebs, and I was stoked to play a lively set to get the afternoon going. It's a mix of older favorites – I've been doing a lot of crate digging while stuck at home – and some new vibes. It's a little messy (I had literally just rolled out of bed, whoops), but this was so much fun -- put a little pep into your step and dive in!

Torie – Live at ICARUS Space Brunch [Quarantunes Live Stream Set]

Faithless - Insomnia (sanya Remix)

Dive into an hour and a half of deep melodies, trippy sounds and even a little bit of tribal beats with me. The @inquiry-records Ladies Night livestream was an incredible experience and I'm so grateful to be continually surrounded by such an inspirational group of friends. This set was quite a journey, and I loved being able to share it with you.

Torie – Live At Inquiry Ladies Night [Quarantunes Live Stream Set]

To be honest: quarantine has been a challenge. I've found myself going back and forth about whether I'm feeling "musical" on any particular day, struggling to find new things that inspire me, and using the many emotions this pandemic has brought up to explore new sounds and tell my story in different ways. 

But it's been positive in an unexpected way, too. I've rediscovered my love for deeper, minimal sounds and the simplicity and power that exists within them. 

This edition of my Forms | States mix comes from an afternoon I spent taking a batch of new tunes and playing them for the first time, finding a groove on the fly that spoke to me in the moment. Dive in and see how it speaks to you, too. 

xo,

Forms | States 06 - Torie [Quarantine Edition]

I closed out @inquiry-records' weekly Friday night stream with an hour+ of jackin' tech house, groovy beats, and major throwbacks ft. Ashanti, Backstreet Boys, Ciara, The Neighborhood, and more. It was an incredible way to finish out something of a crazy week, and this was SO much fun to play – it put such a smile on my face, and I hope these beats can do the same for you. 

Get ready to dance & tune in!

Torie – Live at Inquiry | Throwbacks, Jams & Grooves [Quarantunes Live Stream Set]

If you've known me personally or musically at all, you probably know my deep love for @desert-hearts-records. This community has played a huge impact on my musical development and is truly a second home to me. I've been hoping to play a DH event for awhile now, and had the incredible opportunity to open up their livestream for our @inquiry-records takeover in September.

Dive into 1.5 hours of.. well.. a bit of all of my favorite things. Deep and minimal, trippy and tribal, jackin' tech house, old school, groovy and melodic – an adventure through some of the sounds I'm loving right now. Enjoy 💓

Torie – Live at Desert Hearts x Inquiry DHtv Takeover

Although it was such a bummer that we couldn’t return to the Black Rock City this year, I was so grateful to be invited back to DISTRIKT’s stage for the 2020 virtual burn. I kicked off Wednesday’s fantastic lineup with some of my favorite grooves to get your day going, and it truly reminded me how much I miss playing on-playa.
Much love to the DISTRIKT crew for bringing me back to one of my favorite booths, and many thanks to everyone who woke up bright and early to listen in. Can’t wait to be back on that dusty dancefloor with you all soon. )’(

»»»
Torie’s sound is multifaceted – to say the least. Coming from a global upbringing and current home base in the San Francisco Bay Area, she has been curating sonic adventures as a DJ and event producer for a decade. Torie interweaves elements of breakbeats, house, minimal, dark & driving techno, garage, acid, and drum and bass – balancing a line between heavy-hitting basslines and soulful vocals with ear-catching melodies.

She believes in the power of groove and always plays with one core intention in mind: to bring newfound life to the dancefloor.

– (she lives by the ethos of "i'm just here to play music & do cool shit with my friends").

As a core lead of Inquiry Collective and Inquiry Records, a builder & maker with Burning Man art cars ICARUS and Dusty Rhino, a resident DJ of You’re Welcome SF, and a co-founder of Dance With Haha, Torie draws inspiration from the dusty plains of the playa, the curious explorations of the Mojave desert, the underground dancefloors of SF, & the interstellar endeavors of ICARUS & its motley crew.

Torie has performed with KiNK, Superflu, Justin Martin, Overmono, Maya Jane Coles, Smilk, Anja Schneider, Tale of Us, Patrice Baumel, Marbs, Mikey Lion, Porky and Evan Casey, Rinzen, Dance Spirit, Eskuche, Marques Wyatt, Tycho, KMLN, Sabo, Justin Jay, Hoj, Kevin Knapp, Shiba San, Joeski and more. 

You may have also seen her with renowned crews like Space Cowboys, Distrikt, Ego Trip, and Desert Hearts – at the annual Breakfast of Champions block party on New Year’s Day for six consecutive years – or on the festival circuit at events including Lightning in a Bottle, Outside Lands, EDC Las Vegas, Northern Nights, Desert Hearts, The Untz Festival, Umbrella Weekend, Enigma, and Outside in Equinox. 

In 2025, you can find Torie throwing renegades and pop-ups with the Inquiry crew across California in clubs, deserts, undisclosed locations and beyond… as well as performing in SF, SD, Reno, LA and more.
