RIGA is an audio-visual project born in 2003 by Martino Nencioni, Riccardo Pietroboni e Jacopo Barbaccia, three musicians and acustic designers long time involved in to unusual sound paths creations.
The use of differents techniques such field recording and audio source programming, both digital and analogic, characterize their works. The result is a modern acoustic space concept based on the formal recombination of ambients and sinthetics sound elements.
This constant research within a sonic-experienced contemporary habitat, stimulate a complex and stratified imaginary. Rarefied sounding haze, flowed through micofrequencies, are combined with rithm compositions and walls of noise . The livemedia is a full sensorial immersion marked by a constat inner balance between sound, space and time.
Over the last few years Riga has involved in some of the most important italian audio-video festivals; in 2009 Riga won the "ElettroWave Challenge" as best audio/video project.
In october 2008 recorded the first "self titled" ep for the italian independent label Chew-Z.
In april 2011 came out the first full lenght album "Escapism", always on Chew-Z.
After years of cooperation with several visual artists end vjs, Riga decided to produce video by their own.
