About Me

Growing up in Vancouver, a city known for cultural diversity, unpredictable weather, and beautiful natural surroundings, Scott Riesterer developed a rather eclectic collection of interests. He is a producer of electronic music, a second-degree black belt, a trumpet player, a sound designer, an in-line skater, a DJ, and a skier. His music is influenced by the cutting edge electronic music of Sasha, John Digweed, Trentemoller, and Lee Burridge, as well as the classic sounds of the NES.
