“It took about four years to work on the album. It’s more than just music, its breaking away from the shackles and living for the moment,” Ritviz said.
“‘DEV’ is my debut full-length album and it has everything that I want to showcase — my soundscape that I have cultivated over all these years. My mother who is a music teacher imbibed a strong musical influence in me whilst I was growing up and it’s fantastic to have one of my mentors collaborate with me on this album,” he added.
Looking back, he said: “In my initial years, I used to wake up to my mom singing bandish. Then, came the VH1 era and my teen years were spent listening to pop music. But, post-2011-12, when I started producing music, electronic music was what really drew me closer to production and that’s when I created ‘Mukti’ and ‘Beatific’ and started my entire journey.”
