Riley Matthews has spent the past few years rising through the ranks of the electronic and dance music world, transforming from an underground LA performer into a respected and recognizable name in the scene. By December 2025, their sound has evolved into a distinctive blend of vibrant synthwork, deep emotional undercurrents, and high-energy performance style that draws crowds both online and in person. After releasing a trio of breakout tracks—“Pulse,” “Aurora,” and “Gravity”—Riley gained significant traction on streaming platforms, leading to collaborations with international DJs and producers as well as invitations to perform at several major festivals across North America and Europe. Despite their growing fame, Riley has remained true to their roots as a creative, non-binary artist deeply connected to the community that first inspired them. Their closest collaborator, Alex Turner, continues to be a constant presence in their career, and together they've produced multiple live sets that have gone viral for their intensity and visual flair. Riley still lives in a modest apartment in Los Angeles, choosing to invest more in their craft than in luxury, though their schedule has become far less predictable as touring and studio sessions consume most of their time. Riley’s fear of failure still lingers in the background, but they’ve learned to channel it into motivation rather than anxiety. Their growing fanbase admires their honesty, energy, and commitment to creativity, and Riley has become known for championing up-and-coming artists and fostering supportive spaces in an industry that can often feel competitive and isolating. Their new music, including tracks like “Subterranean” and “Chasing Light,” shows a maturing artistic voice that explores darker moods, introspective themes, and increasingly complex sound design. As 2025 comes to a close, Riley Matthews stands on the brink of an even bigger breakthrough, with a debut album in development and a world tour being quietly planned. They continue to chase new ideas, new sounds, and new experiences, driven by the same creative spark that first led them into the world of electronic music.
