BIO
rAHHH returns! "It is a bit of a letdown to discover that the producer rAHHH is based in London—if only because I'd always assumed he'd floated somewhere above the Earth's surface.” says Vice’s Noisey in 2017 as he released his debut EP via Mr. Mitch’s Gobstopper label. Now, rAHHH showcases his signature uplifting left-field production on the exquisite new 'Tetris People’ EP, the first in 4 years as well as first for LA-based label Friends of Friends. The UK producer has developed quite the reputation through just a handful of official releases, first coming on the scene with highly touted edits and remixes. rAHHH’s distinctive sound draws varying styles and is on full display here; blips and bloops, vocal manipulation, sun-drenched house rhythms, melodic guitar and autotune all collide throughout the 5 track offering. With previous attention from notables like Nike, BBC Radio 1, DJ Mag, Clash, Dummy Mag, Soulection, Enchufada, and the support of artists like Ryan Hemsworth and FOF label mate Lorenzo BITW, ‘Tetris People EP’ see’s rAHHH even more comfortable in the sound and vision that is distinctly his.
"The EP started with a phrase that got stuck in my head, ‘a cat emerges from a bush on a summer's day.’ Each of the songs play around with that image, trying to catch that feeling. Thinking about it a lot, I feel like I came across the feeling more and more, where I felt almost suspended from the world, I started thinking about a world where there are tetris people. Tetris people are people that fit together so well that, like a cleared line of tetris blocks, they disappear from this world completely, they reduce their world to just themselves, much in the same way that a sunbathing cat will feel removed from the world and its anxieties reducing its world to just this small sun spot.” rAHHH
