#36 Feat. Hype in Electronica

Perspectives Digital proudly presents Metamorphosis, the stunning debut album from Brooklyn-based producer, DJ, and sonic storyteller Rïa Mehta. This landmark release captures the essence of an artist in full creative bloom, boldly fusing cultural heritage, emotional depth, and forward-thinking production into one of the years most evocative electronic albums. Metamorphosis is the culmination of Rïas rapid and remarkable rise within the global scene. Born to Indian parents and raised across Sri Lanka, Dubai, and London, Rïa brings a rich multicultural sensibility to her music. After first making her mark as a DJ, she pivoted into production during the pandemic, teaching herself Ableton Live and quickly developing a signature sound that blends cutting-edge sounds with organic textures. Her breakout releases were supported by heavyweights such as RÜFÜS DU SOL, Nora En Pure, Gorgon City, and BLOND:ISH, a testament to her natural ability to craft music that resonates on dancefloors and in introspective moments alike. Across nine masterfully composed tracks, Metamorphosis takes listeners on a deeply personal and cinematic journey. From the ethereal ambiance of Far Away to the surging energy of Metamorphosis, the hypnotic pull of Jhari, and the soulful resonance of All of Me, each composition showcases Rïas keen ear for melody and emotional storytelling. Her unique approach bridges Eastern and Western influences, organic instrumentation with modern electronic aesthetics, painting a sonic landscape that feels both timeless and futuristic. As a label, Perspectives Digital has long been recognized for its role in shaping the sounds of Melodic House & Techno and Progressive House throughout the past 15 years, with the legendary Darin Epsilon at the helm. With Metamorphosis, Rïas debut album not only affirms her place among the genres brightest minds, but also reflects the label commitment of discovering and nurturing visionary talent. Poised between introspective depth and kinetic energy, Metamorphosis transcends the traditional boundaries of a dance music album. It stands as a bold statement of identity, transformation, and artistic evolution, marking a pivotal chapter in Rïa Mehtas journey, and a proud moment and defining release for Perspectives Digital.
