Digging Deeper with RISC
Bradley Nelson is an internationally recognized DJ and recording artist producing under the monikers, DJ Evol and RISC.
The DJ Evol moniker has been an established player on the international drum & bass scene for many years, releasing on the highly lauded UK labels True Playaz and Urban Takeover and CIA recordings. Originally from Chicago, Evol has found a home in LA and brings years of experience in bass music production from residencies and radio to the West Coast, a fact which is not lost on the dance floors he habitually incinerates. Evol has also brought his thick talent at the decks to the SMOG familyâs wide variety of parties and productions.
A respected name in the international electronic music community, Bradley has produced under is moniker RISC on Green Velvetâs Relief Records, Chicagoâs UKR records, Berlinâs established GND records and Spainâs N&N records, along with a steady slew of new releases and remixes coming in the next few months. He brings a unique, catchy, dance-floor approach to his production. His tracks have a humbling feeling, with unforgettable synth lines and an array of funky drums and rhythm.
Recently, Nelson married his Chicagoan roots with his love for techno as RISC, for a debut release on Eats Everything and Andres Campo’s EI8HT Records: the four-track Midwest-inspired Sessions EP
With Sessions Scheduled for release on June 28th, and available for pre-order HERE, we sat down with the LA transplant to dig deeper into his Chicago roots and the influences for the EP.
