RIOT just dropped their new album The Machine on Slander and NGHTMRE’s label, Gud Vibrations, and are hitting the road for their first-ever national headlining tour.

In this episode, we talk about what it takes to build a sustainable career in bass music—while staying true to your vision and leveling up every step of the way.

We dive into:

  • The grind of moving from support slots to headlining shows
  • How they balanced singles, a full album, and tour prep all at once
  • The investment behind their visuals, branding, and comic book universe
  • The realities of touring life, burnout, and building healthy routines
  • Why up-and-coming artists need to slow down, stop chasing trends, and focus on quality music

If you’re serious about building a real career as an artist, this one’s packed with lessons on patience, strategy, and doing things the right way.
