Henry Smithson (born 13 September 1978), best known by his stage name Riton (/ˈriːtɒn/ REE-ton), is an English electronic music DJ and producer from Newcastle upon Tyne.

Riton's second album, Homies And Homos (2004) was a much more vocal affair, and featured amongst others, Lee Jones of Howdi and Luca Santucci.

In late 2006, it was announced in the Belgian magazine HUMO that David and Stephen Dewaele from Soulwax had formed a krautrock band with Riton called Die Verboten.

Instead, Riton released an album under the pseudonym Eine Kleine Nacht Musik on the label Modular Records in July 2008.
