Pulsating rhythms, melodic flourishes, monumental hooks: blending hard- swagger beats with imaginative impulses, Long Beach, California-based producer Rijan couples an encyclopedic knowledge of production styles with a firm grasp of the present to reveal a far-reaching sonic vision for the future.

Across a wide range of projects – indie to mainstream recording artists, TV to Film Networks – Rijan’s musical intuition is grounded on integrity and real emotion. It is his intention to support the artist’s direction. “I’ll go with what they want: digital or live funk band, because every album is different.
