Detroit Native, Rimarkable…

is a DJ, vocalist, songwriter, and producer. She has shared the stage with world stars such as George Clinton, Madonna, and Erykah Badu, as well as legendary DJ colleagues Gene Farris, Francois K, Pete Tong, and Roger Sanchez. Her unique sound becomes ceremony with a witches’ brew of House and Techno, in a Soul, Funk and Disco cauldron.

Defying effortless categorization, Maria “Ri Ri'' Garcia aka Rimarkable is a child of funk,  jazz, gospel, rock and soul,

and her selections as a DJ and broadcaster fuse all of these  sounds “wrapped into a house and techno box”. Growing up heavily influenced by  Black gospel music, her mother a classically trained pianist and music minister in a  Pentecostal church, Rimarkable’s childhood summers in Chicago also gave her an  introduction to house music, during the genre’s explosive infancy. An Afro-Latina from  Detroit, she’s first generation Puerto Rican, and the Afro-Carribean sound continues to  have a huge impact on her sonic leanings, alongside the unmistakable ear training of  the city’s techno legacy.  

Rimarkable started professionally DJing in 1997, first doing private events and then  clubs in the early 2000s. She’s since played around the world alongside the likes of  Roger Sanchez, Francois K, Pete Tong and Gene Farris. She started producing in 2006, 

after she grew tired of male producers either not understanding how she wanted to  sound, or luring her into the studio to hang out, then asking her to freestyle on the mic,  while hitting ‘record’ and releasing music without her consent. Her first release as a  producer was in 2011 on E-man's Liberate Recordings label, a track called "Peace Lives  Here" ft. Valerie Troutt.  

Quite literally a party starter, she’s produced several successful, long-running events in New York, Detroit and the Bay Area over the past 20+ years. In early 2021, Rimarkable signed to UK house music institution Defected, including the Defected Music publishing arm, and stepped up as a presenter for the weekly Defected Radio show. Rimarkable currently resides in Brooklyn, NY where owns and operates her creative production company, Rimarkable Things.
