Ritchot Textiles

About

After nearly twenty years playing music together, Drew Riekman, Mitchell Trainor and Reuben Houweling created Ritchot Textiles, a project steeped in their love of droning distorted synthesizers, hypnotic repetitive sequencers and psych indebted production, against the backdrop of minimal krautrock and industrial electronics. 

Written, recorded, mixed and mastered in the span of weeks using only analogue equipment, Ritchot Textiles bend recording studio tools and effects past their point of proper function to provide an eclectic and demanding experience on their first EP, self-released through the band’s own imprint, DRMILMA.

Owing as much to Cocteau Twins and Nine Inch Nails as it does to YMO and Silver Apples, Ritchot Textiles provides a vessel for unhindered and joyous creativity between longtime collaborators.
