Having an academic background in hospitality is good enough to guess his major business. Eightynine Jakarta, the F&B company he co-founded with his mother, Eileen Rachman & his friend, Akbar Dali. Riri is a recording producer/dj with six albums Keluar Malam (2004), Stereo Mestica (2006), Keluar Malam Repackage (2008), Unspoken (2010), Best of Riri Mestica (2014), RROB - Runaway (2016). He is one of the few Indonesian DJs who have successfully brought the industry out from the underground scene, making it recognized by those outside the party set. But getting ahead of the pack in the dance music industry was not something Riri achieved in a just a few years: It took him years of learning and getting experience in deejaying to get to the top. So Riri stepped up, doing more than just playing and mixing records at nightclubs. Rather, he dedicated himself to developing the industry by establishing a Record Label, DJ Academy and Artist Management/Agency.
