StudioRich is the creative lab of Brooklyn-based artist Mr. Richie, blending lo-fi aesthetics, glitch design, and emotionally charged music into immersive, genre-blurring experiences.
Rooted in graffiti, anime nostalgia, and ambient soundscapes, StudioRich fuses audio and visuals into tactile, retro-futurist worlds—ranging from animated cover loops and lo-fi Twitch streams to custom-built tools like playlist engines and audio-reactive toys.
Whether remixing city sounds into memory loops or designing interactive desktop worlds, StudioRich is where NYC grit meets glitch-era imagination.
