Virtual Riot is set to release his highly anticipated debut album, Stealing Fire, on Monstercat on October 18th!
Stealing Fire delves into the concept of drawing inspiration from others’ creations and transforming them into something completely unique. The album embraces the idea of sharing once-guarded knowledge, using music to elevate consciousness and ignite creativity. This process of “stealing fire” doesn’t deplete energy, but instead spreads it, amplifying creativity and inspiration for everyone.
As Virtual Riot embarks on his current tour, he’s also pioneering a groundbreaking new stage experience by featuring VJ Carmen, also known as VJ Neurite, live on stage. Together, they deliver a dynamic blend of music and visuals, with VJ Neurite mesmerizing audiences with stunning laser displays that are perfectly synced to Virtual Riot’s electrifying sets. This innovative approach not only enhances the live DJ experience but also highlights the vital contributions of visual artists, particularly women, in the electronic music scene.
