Rivka Ruth

Playfully sliding through the dance-scapes of disco, house, and techno, Rivka Ruth sits within a modern continuum of dj’s whose sound can’t be contained to one particular genre. A narrative-driven dj, Rivka Ruth crafts each mix as a sensory journey, adventuring through the jubilant, dark, introspective and exuberant stratospheres that is dance music. She recently opened for music producer, dj, and record label owner, LP Giobbi, at Superior Ingredients, as part of her “Femme House” party series supported by Yes Yes Yes Records.

A recent graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, Rivka Ruth began djing as a creative outlet while pursuing her architecture degree. Her initial goal was modest: she provided music to her peers as a means to escape and celebrate their inner-ness amidst a world that was trying to change them. However, her carefully chosen frequencies turned heads and she soon found herself curating sonic experiences in community spaces, speakeasies, and artist studios in Providence, RI and more recently, in clubs, dance halls, and sought-after venues in Brooklyn, NY.

Anchored by a desire to be involved in a cause greater than herself, Rivka Ruth founded the non-profit PARC, with Peter Anspach in 2021. PARC, a project exploring presence, sustainability, and equanimity, has raised funds and awareness for Greenpeace USA, an environmental non-profit spearheading the climate crisis fight. Through PARC, the two artists collaborate on the design for each clothing drop, aiming to introduce a critical message into a circulation network that is unsuspecting.
