ALPHA DATA

Alpha Data

Make your own kind of music, sing your own special song. Make your own kind of music, even if nobody else sings along.”

These are the words that mark Alpha Data’s information page. However, I doubt no one is not singing or dancing along to his beats.

So, who is Alpha Data? Just your typical law student meets DJ. Wait, what? Yes. That’s right. Alpha Data, or James Ristvedt is a law student by day who balances his alter ego in the dirty electronic beats he makes by night. Listening to his tracks, I was surprised to find myself jamming writing this blog and having flash backs of Excision-like sounds mixed with a little Glitch Mob.

Alpha Data, emerging just a year ago, has delivered glitch-hop originals and remixes that carried his first debut, Nefertiti, to #1 on Beatports’ Glitch Hop list and #50 on their all genre list. His fast break into the EDM scene has landed him at national shows, opening for The Disco Biscuits and sharing the stage with names including, Flux Pavillion and Shpongle.

F.O.E Music Fest adds to his increasing list of festivals and shows and his momentum in the scene doesn’t seem to be slowing down.
