RIVERPHONIC
MUSIC SUPERVISION & VERBAL DESIGN
Riverphonic is a production and communication consultancy operating in Music, Events, Sound Design, Audio Branding, and Verbal Identity.
Whether it’s live and in the moment or recorded for broader distribution, Riverphonic specializes in deep, dimensional soundscapes. Drawing on decades of experience in electronic dance music, Riverphonic’s track record includes producing and programming some truly iconic DJs and driving the birth and development of influential club brands on both sides of the Atlantic. From seminal venues in London and NYC to the biggest stages at Burning Man in the Black Rock Desert, Riverphonic is known for soundtracks that capture moments in time.
Inspired by the original concept of tying musical narrative to motion, and with a deep understanding of the power that lies in the context of place, Riverphonic curates performances and playlists for a variety of venues and experiences, “IRL & URL” as the saying goes: studios, warehouses, hotels, airlines, shopping malls, sports arenas, websites, apps, gyms, yoga retreats, weddings, restaurants and conferences - with a common denominator of clients that are looking to communicate with a sense of style and soul.
To quote from the Riverphonic handbook: “We strive to deliver originality and avoid the dreaded cliché. Sound, after all, has the most emotional impact of any single sense. So please, don’t be like the bride’s mother who spent five times as much on flowers as she did on the DJ at the wedding, and ended up dancing with a geranium.”
A bridge between brands and clubland since the 1990s, Riverphonic’s comprehensive offering includes copyright clearance and licensing, a wealth of connections in the music industry, and relationships with international tastemakers and leading music journalists spanning 35 years. Services extend from audio into language, with copywriting, editing, and naming workshops provided by Riverphonic’s self-styled “obsessive compulsive word nerds”.
Through a unique collaborative process, Riverphonic’s secret sauce lies in drawing on the art of Music to bring emotional power to the world of words, and in drawing on the world of Words to bring meaning to the art of Music.
“Always on key, instantly felt, massively infectious and masterfully orchestrated, Riverphonic unifies a multitude of dissonant signals into one harmonious stream.”
