Roniit is a Denver based ElectroPop artist who produces complex, beautiful tunes with a decidedly ominous edge. A DIY artist who has built up an impressive following, Roniit has just released her new EP, In The Shadows, a six track collection of rich, emotional Pop songs primed for intense headphone listening.
Kicking off with Only You, the In The Shadow’s EP immediately stakes it’s musical claim. Roniit bills her music as ‘Dark ElectroPop’, we’ve never been keen on that kind of use of the word ‘dark’, as a rule of thumb, if you have to call your music ‘dark’, then it probably isn’t. It’s one of those words, like beautiful, that only really the listener can impart. And that holds out here, as Roniit’s music isn’t really that dark. it’s definitely shot through with a streak of Melancholy, there’s minor keys and sombre soundscapes, but it’s actually pretty uplifting stuff. Comparable in tone to the best 80s Pop, that was always optimistic with a hint of sadness. Dark or not, it’s enchanting stuff, Only You is a majestic symphony of driving beats, growling synths and Roniit’s seriously epic vocals. A powerful opener, Only You is a good primer for the rest of the EP and leads straight into the pseudo-Dubstep beats and passion of Lost At Sea, a track that layers thick heavy synth bass, gently piano and Roniit’s fervid vocals. Roniit’s voice really is the star of this EP, with a warm and rich tone she imparts a wealth of feeling into her performance, never feeling over-the-top or hammy, just full of soul. The EP’s title track reins things in to deliver an atmospheric, sparking ballad, and the atmospherics continue with Into A Dream, a captivating orchestra of drums and buzzing synths. Sleepless takes the EP further down the ballad road and allows Roniit to show off a different, softer, side to her considerable vocal talents, but the time for Roniit’s abilities to really shine if the EP’s final track, I Never Knew. Build around just her and her piano, it;s a nice was to ease yourself out of the intensity of the In The Shadows EP. Our only complaint with the EP is that the occasional wailing guitar solo, amidst the intelligent electronics and rousing voice, sounds really out of place, and quite cheesy, but that in no way distracts from the allure and ferocity of Roniit’s new EP. - Electronic Rumors
Roniit is a project that got started around two years ago by namesake Roniit Alkayam, who went to high school in Evergreen and studied music business at the University of Colorado at Denver. Alkayam started writing her own music in conjunction with her boyfriend Eric Brown, who keeps time for the death metal band Vale of Pnath. The music the duo made together is ostensibly far removed from metal and sounds more like electronic pop with a darker air to it. Roniit released a self-titled full-length album in 2011 that revealed a knack for making the kind of downtempo songs that would be prime for a good anime soundtrack. - Westword
When Denver area artist Roniit (say “Ro-NEET”) sent me a link to her self-titled debut CD a few months ago, I was backlogged and told her it would be awhile before I got to it. However, when I did get a listen, I was pleasantly surprised. I put it on my ipod, and have always enjoyed when one of her songs comes up on shuffle.
And now, finally, I have a little time to tell you about it.
Roniit classifies her music as “dark pop,” and the term really fits, in my opinion. It’s electronic music laden with haunting arrangements, minor chords, lots of low tones, and Roniit’s pure-toned voice over the top of it all. Very strong production value for an indie artist, if you ask me–and the overall sound gives me the impression that I’m listening to the music in black-and-white. Not depressing, just a bit melancholy and haunting.
I’ve put in one of my favorite tracks for you to stream below. If you like what you hear, Roniit is currently offering her entire record as a name-your-own-price download from her Bandcamp site.

Review written in Japanese.
Loose Translation:
There is a sense of sophistication and emotional shine in this female voice. Mellow music that sounds impressive does not need strong colors. Very Ethereal. This music can be described as Synth, Electro Pop with acoustic piano. Hints of Gothic, Dark Wave, but more boldly it incorporates elements of Death Metal Guitar!!! This style boasts a rare sound. (According to the Official, It is like people who like Death Metal)

On June 16th, dark electronic pop artist Ronit Alkayam- Or Roniit (pronounced: row-neat), as her fans have come to know her- will celebrate the release of her self-titled debut album at the Larimer Lounge in Downtown Denver. All of the tracks on the album feature her own vocals, as well as instrumental sections and beats that she writes all on her own. She’s slated to perform a set at the event alongside supporting acts Dave Devine and Prominence, drawing crowds from the electronic dance music community as well as the metal scene.
Although this dark, brooding beauty boasts authentic metal babe credentials (having played bass in a number of local hard rock bands), her familiars from the edgier music scenes may be surprised to discover that her musical influences originally stem from pop music. “I grew up listening to a lot of bubblegum pop- like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera kind of stuff, so I like that kind of singing,” she says, “But then I also listen to a lot of metal, so I drew from darker music as well.” Indeed, “Cover My Eyes,” one of her most popular singles off the album, features an infectious chorus craftily designed to get stuck in your head as well as a guitar solo with sweeps worthy of a tech-death masterpiece. Her masterfully executed synthesis of two seemingly juxtapose genres yields a unique, original sound that could easily catch on with the right promotion.
Roniit’s resonance with both the electronic dance music crowd and the metal crowd raises provocative questions about the flexibility of both genres. Could dark electronic pop be the newest sound to bridge scenes (much like how dubstep unites hip-hop, reggae and dance music enthusiasts) with a singular, defined sound? Give “Cover My Eyes” a listen and let LoDo Magazine know what you think!
