Alvin Risk

[ELECTRONIC/DANCE] Enter the world of Alvin Risk, where genres roam free and consistent grungy, bass-riddled remixes are at the helm. Hailing from Washington, D.C., Risk’s capacity for producing wobbly electronic sounds has elevated his status to one of the most sought after producers in the electronic music scene, lending his talents to icons like Kaskade and Skrillex. Like a sonic Rumpelstiltskin, he spins songs like Fun’s “We Are Young,” into pure dance floor gold with upbeat synths and bouncy beats. His aptly titled 2014 EP, Venture, ventures into new, electronic music territory with Risk lending his own vocals and wild production on all five tracks. The result is extraterrestrial from the moment you hear his vocals on opening track, “Alone.” These songs bleed emotion through heartfelt lyrics, while still having get-up-and-move vibes. The EP solidifies Risk’s ability to consistently evolve and reinvent himself while retaining his all-star reputation. Risk’s stage presence is always dynamic. He takes the audience on a heart-pounding trip, singing along and fully engaging with the people sweating to his music. His 2015 tour features Kodak To Graph and their instrumentally charged urban glam beats. They come to The Waiting Room on Saturday, January 17 with BrotherBear

$15-$20
