the immersive multimedia world he has created around it - add
up to a fresh, powerful, entertaining and thought-provoking
experience, and set Riz apart as a singular voice with an
innovative and bold musical vision.
MICroscope bristles with risks, intensity, and intelligence. The
depth and ambition of the lyrics cut across the honed contours of
impossible-to-categorize futuristic bass, as easily as they gel
with acoustic strings, or pierce dense layers of jazz-electronica.
Working on the original album with tech-breaks rising star
Lazersonic (Zak Frost, Turbo, Eye Industries), and Glasgow label
NMBRS hot shot signing Redhino, Riz is mixing big ideas with
big bass.
MICroscope isn't just an album - it also has a high concept live
show, website, and short film, each giving us a glimpses into an
elaborate sci-fi story-world. Both at the live show and online,

move your mind...
