Rival Consoles

One of the UK’s most influential creators of electronic music, Rival Consoles, will return with a brand new album and Live A/V show in May 2025, marking a new chapter in an ongoing quest for refinement and evolution. London-based producer Ryan Lee West, better known under the name Rival Consoles, is notable for making synthesisers sound human and atmospheric. Over the course of a critically acclaimed seventeen-year career, his music has diversified from the challenging electronic output of his early EPs, to gradually becoming more conceptual and metamorphic with his albums. In spring 2025 Rival Consoles will release a brand new studio album on Erased Tapes, and present it with a unique live performance that will take the form of an immersive audio-visual experience in which he will also present material from across the last decade of his career and beyond. From deep ambient works to his unique version of techno, and traversing the vast spectrum in between, the show will be a long-form narrative of ideas, many heard live for the first time.
