A.k.a. Alexei Lapshin

Alex Rize is a solo project of Moscow-based artist Alexei Lapshin born in 1988, Moscow. His main aim is to place listeners into thoughtful and unique fields of our imagination and inner life with the help of logical sound combinations, mixtures and all kind of acoustic vibrations. Following his goal, he tries to create a proper atmosphere and visions to let people plunge into the depths of mental soundscapes. Putting all his ideas into practice always makes him search for a new sounding and a way of recording it, which gives birth to every tune produced. Sometimes subtle, sometimes solid structured, his music ranges from massive broken beats to minimalistic feeling. Despite the vast sounding and ideas variety you may find some global common thoughts running all through his works – love for eternal ambient music as well as scenery admiring. Mother Nature brings him the true inspiration that he’s never tired of, probably it is the main key to all his tracks. Floating airy substances along with delicate rhythm cuts are cycled and mixed together in a multi-layered way, presenting a special mood for the listeners. Being always free and independent in his self-expression, Alex is limited only by his mind and skills. It is everlasting steps towards the perfection, realizing the impossibility of achieving it.
