Her new album was mixed in L-ISA by L-Acoustics spatial audio software and will be released in Dolby Atmos spatial effectively pushing technical boundaries to create a multisensory experience that transcends traditional music experiences. With her new album exploring themes of:
“EVOLVE came about through my work in spatial audio where you separate sounds into granular objects. Each sound, however small, has its own life and space. When combined a whole new textured composition evolves and emerges. Ultimately the aim is to orchestrate and unify these sounds together – along with visuals and lights in live – to create evocative and moving experiences. Some of the tracks I have been performing in live environments to experiment and give them time to literally evolve into the final released versions. Much of my process revolves around experimentation in order to innovate.”
Integral to Rice’s work is the creation of dynamic and encompassing live immersive experiences. In 2020 she launched her groundbreaking ‘NEW WORLDS’ project – where each release comprised both music and the creation of a unique visual environment. Since then she has continued to experiment with innovative technology, working with lead visual designer Freny Antony and often being one of the first to take the plunge into what is now a rising trend in immersive experiences.
