Delhi-based DJ / Producer VRIDIAN presents his first fully original musical voyage – ’Etymon’, a tribute to the spaces and linked memories that currently define his artistic identity.

‘Etymon’ ebbs with moments of euphoria, waves of nostalgia and introspective motifs – powered by a constant groove that flows continuously like a powerful undercurrent. Finding his way into the multidimensional world of repetitive machine-made music and counterculture through the lens of raves, VRIDIAN blends together this energy with sonic elements that are synonymous with the club environment. This musical adventure sits on the line between these two connected, yet entirely different realms.

Being the alias of music producer Vir RC, this project has a penchant for atmospheric, emotive, and groovy electronic music. Inspired by a wide range of musical influences, VRIDIAN has released on imprints such as Manjumasi, Traum Schallplatten & Qilla Records. With a passion for the craft of (appropriate & situational) DJing, the project has also become a regular feature on club bills across the Indian subcontinent.

VRIDIAN’s releases have found their way into the selections of Andrew Weatherall, Atish, Frankey & Sandrino, Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed & Mark Slee. His catalog also boasts stellar remixes of his music from some of the best in the game, such as Christopher Ledger, Clarian & Tim Engelhardt.
