Artoffact Records is pleased to announce the
signing of Mexican elecronic musician, RITUALZ!
Ritualz is a music project started by JC Lobo from
Mexico City in 2010 that has garnered accolades from Noisey,
Thumb, MTV, Loud & Quiet, and many others. With a handful of
self-released EPs, Ritualz is best known for its dark and
experimental approach to electronic music, creating heavy and dense
sounds that have gained him a following in the depths of the
underground around the world.
“I'm excited to sign with Artoffact Records and
join their ranks alongside so many great artists. It's a great label
and this new album couldn't have found a better home,” says Lobo
about the recent signing.
Ritualz's debut full-length album Doom comes
almost four years after his last release, packed with 11 tracks of
brooding industrial and synth-pop infected darkwave, and will be
released in early 2018 by Toronto-based Artoffact Records.
Ritualz has played live at concert venues and
festivals across North America and Europe, including SXSW, Baroeg
Open Air, and Soundrive Festival. Further tour dates and
festival appearances are in the works for 2018. For now if you're
lucky enough to live in Texas, you can see Ritualz and any of the
