BASED EP032: Richie Hell

BASED EP032: Richie Hell

The journey of Richie Hell is a trip, to say the least. Argentinian-born, but Miami-adopted Richie describes himself as a musical citizen of the world, limiting himself to nothing when it comes to the sounds he produces and spins. In his native country, Argentina, he’s widely known as a DJ, musician, radio host, and producer. He began winning over US audiences in 2015 when he moved to Miami to serve as Music Director for the renowned Faena Hotel. A lifelong record collector, Richie's original compositions throb with a steady universal beat, evoking everything from South American psychedelic obscurities to Madchester and P-Funk. At his eclectic live shows, one can expect driving percussion and bass, very special guest vocalists, and the occasional 12-foot-tall inflatable cobra created by his incredibly talented partner Francisca Oyhanarte, who is responsible for the artwork accompanying his releases. In this episode of Based, we discuss Richie Hell's origin story, moving to Miami and shedding his skin over time as an ever-evolving artist, leading up to his latest project, The Gumbo Limbo Experiment [https://sweatrecordsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/richie-hell-the-gumbo-limbo-experiment]. We speak about the process of creating his latest project, how Miami has played a role in his creative process (and why he never wants to leave), and what we can expect from him in the future.

In this episode, we talk about his transition from experimental rap to alt-pop indie bangers, teaching himself to make music with little musical background, how Miami has inspired him to keep making art, and his creative visions turned to life through videos.
