Razihel is an eclectic young Italian producer. Coming to EDM out of his worldwide success in the Screamo / post-hardcore scene, where he toured the world gaining performance experience as a singer and front-man, he already surpassed that success with his solo efforts in barely 2 years.
“I think being in punk-rock, metal and hard-core bands from when I was just 14 and touring a lot helped me to grow up as a musician for sure but also as a person. You can really hear the difference between a producer who is also a real musician and can play real instruments and one who is just a producer and worked only with digital stuff,” and he’s probably right when he says this, in fact, his official remix for “Come And Get It” by Krewella, which starts with a brilliant melodic live recorded guitar arpeggio, reached 2 millions+ views in 8 months on YouTube, and has been regularly dropped by big names like Adventure Club and Krewella.
Razihel first burst onto the scene with his official remix for Benny Benassi “Perfect Storm” [Ultra Music] which has been played to massive effect by Benassi himself at major festivals like Ultra and Coachella. Ever since then, and in the space of just a few months, he released a plethora of new original tracks signed to Monstercat Records, collabs with some great names like Savant, Varien and Virtual Riot and official remixes for Krewella, I See Stars and more.
“I love collaborating with other producers! You can learn a lot of great things from these super talented people. It’s just an incredible feeling to share your knowledge in music production with someone else you respect”, he explains. His collab with the Norwegian genius Savant reached the #3 on the Beatport dubstep chart and his track with the great composer Varien has been #1 in the glitch-hop Beatport chart for over a month. Same thing happened with his track with Virtual Riot, strongly influenced by retro videogames music, which reached the first position in the beatport dubstep chart just after 2 days from it’s release.
Razihel seems to be making a habit of dominating charts, in fact, his original track “Falcon Punch” is #1 in the “all time chart” by House.net and his Krewella remix is #2 in the “all time chart” by Glitchhop.net, not to mention all his other remixes/bootlegs who count 300,000+ downloads on the web.
