Description

Transparent Purple Color limited to 300 copies

Riki is the Los Angeles-based dark synth-pop band led by Niff Nawor, a visual artist and musician from California’s deathrock and anarcho-punk scenes, formerly of Crimson Scarlet, who started Riki in 2017. Her debut ‘Hot City’ tape featured contributions from Chelsey Crowley, Skot Brown, and Pea, released on Commodity Tapes and later on vinyl by Symphony of Destruction. Riki then toured with acts like Light Asylum, Black Marble, and Trisomie 21. Her self-titled debut album for Dais explores themes of courage, physicality, and romance across eight synth pop tracks, produced by Matia Simovich. Influences include Neue Deutsch Welle, early Adrian Sherwood, Italo Disco, Japanese Visual Kei, Pat Benatar, Kate Bush, and Madonna. The lead single ‘Napoleon’ blends 80’s New York electro-pop with West Coast storytelling. The second single, ‘Bse Lgen,’ is a German remix emphasizing its commanding, danceable nature, contrasting the album’s romantic tone.
