Bio
Who We Are: Rice Bowl Recordings is an independent EDM label founded in 2017 by Vince Blakk and Davin Duke, built on a shared passion for melodic, emotional and forward thinking electronic dance music.
From the beginning, the label has focused on music with a strong identity, clear melodies and a sound designed for DJs, listeners and long term catalog value. What started as an independent label project has gradually evolved into a wider creative ecosystem, connecting music production, artist development, promotion, visual identity, digital services and long term catalog strategy.
Davin Duke has not been part of Rice Bowl Recordings since 2019. Since 2022, the label has been fully owned and directed by Vince Blakk, who continues to lead its artistic direction, release selection, A&R vision and overall development.
In 2025, Rice Bowl Recordings was officially incorporated as Rice Bowl Recordings LLC in Wyoming, USA, marking a new professional chapter for the label and strengthening its long term international structure.
Today, Rice Bowl Recordings delivers melodic and forward thinking electronic dance music across Trance, Progressive, Melodic House & Techno, Chillout, Ambient, Dance, Tech House and Deep House. The label works with artists worldwide and operates with a clear focus on quality releases, Beatport visibility, worldwide distribution, promotional development and long term catalog growth.
Rice Bowl Recordings is the mother label of a wider music network. Its main catalog remains focused on the label’s most representative, emotional and internationally oriented releases, while its sublabels expand the sound into darker, warmer, deeper and more specialized directions.
Vision: At its heart, Rice Bowl Recordings remains committed to one simple idea:
We love dance music with marked melodies.
That vision still drives every release, every artist relationship and every step forward. Rice Bowl Recordings is not just a label name. It is a growing ecosystem built around melody, emotion, professional development and long term musical identity.
The label’s structure is designed to stay clear, scalable and future ready: Rice Bowl Recordings defines the main artistic vision.Blakk Digitally Music expands the darker club side. Tulua Records opens the warmer, latin, organic and groove driven side. Rice Bowl Dark and Rice Bowl White guide listeners by mood, not by catalog walls.
This allows every release to find the right home, every artist to be positioned more clearly and every listener to enter the Rice Bowl universe through the sound that fits them best.
