Rhythmic Wavelengths LLC specializes in professional percussion design and consultation, and was founded by Riley Warren - a Dallas-based percussion educator, arranger, consultant, clinician, and podcaster. Riley currently serves as the Director of Percussion at Forney High School. The Forney High School Drumline has achieved high accolades at numerous local and statewide marching competitions, most recently earning the title of 2025 NTCA Scholastic Open Class Champion. Additionally, the Forney HS Percussion Ensemble performed at the 2022 Percussive Arts Society International Convention, as well as the 2023 Midwest International Band & Orchestra Clinic. As a clinician, Riley has presented at Southern Methodist University, East Texas A&M University, and Fort Worth ISD, and has served as an All-Region Percussion Ensemble Conductor for the ATSSB Region 29/32 and Irving ISD. He is a highly sought after percussion arranger and consultant for many high school band programs across Texas. Riley spent six summers performing in Drum Corps International as a member of the Crossmen (2010-2013) as well as the Cadets (2014-2015), serving as section leader for both organizations. He holds a Bachelor Of Music Education degree and Performance Certificate from The University of Texas at Austin and a Master of Music Education degree from Southern Methodist University. Riley is a proud educational artist for Zildjian and Vic Firth, a provisional member of the Texas Music Adjudicators Association, and a member of the Education Committee for the Percussive Arts Society.
