Rex Riot, born Nicholas Rex Valente, is an American electronic music record producer. He is known for his work with Nintendo, for their 2012 Wii U Campaign, and various work including a popular remix of Kanye West's "All of the Lights",[1] which he produced with Infuze. He currently has releases under Play Me Records and Heavy Artillery Records.
Rex Riot's career as a mainstream electronic musician began with DJ Neekola's debut commercial house album Playtime in 2010,[2] on which he was a co-producer and had a remix of the title track. Playtime quickly gained local, and later international success, and was eventually signed to Nom Nom Records.[3]
Riot is easily recognized by his use of an astronaut theme evidenced by a NASA spacesuit which he wears while DJing. He can also be seen wearing a gas mask and his work is often driven by sexual themes.[citation needed]
He currently lives in Washington, D.C.
