rist is the eclectic electro-acoustic folktronica female duo of a German and a Japanese based primarily in Germany who, individually, has collaborated with various musicians and artistes as studio sessionists before coming together as an entity.
The name “rist” comes from the playful fact that they like its phonetic sound, as in “tou-rist” or “guitar-rist”, and so they’d like to think they are “two-rist”.
With influences from the classical master composers like Mahler, Bach and Reich, as well as prolific jazz musician Bill Evans, rist's music trails upon the subtle, ethereal realm of simple pleasures, with flowing melodies, sounds, and harmonies that captivates a sensibility for the sublime yet never detaches itself from the reality.
mu-nest brings you rist's entrancing, beautiful debut album weekend in October 2008.
