DruiZ is a project from multi instrumentalist Daniel Ruiz, whose goal when making music is to create a sonic journey with an array of electronic and acoustic instruments.
The musical approach comes from making improvised loops and embracing the spontaneity of the sound creations, allowing every performance to be a unique experience. DruiZ collaborates and creates based on feel and emotion in the hopes to connect with music as intently as possible.
On March 2021 DruiZ released their latest single called 'Dime' (feat Mattea Made), which showcases DruiZ's first attempt at production and mixing. 'Dime' is a song that evokes self reflection and communication within yourself. It encourages you to ask what you know, want, think or see by letting yourself be guided by your own imagination.
Dime was followed up with an uplifting Remix created by Anthex, gaining some attention with the electronic music scene.
On June 2021 DruiZ released two instrumental singles with music collaborator Poser Beats. "Magia Selvatica" and "Soñando Bajo El Agua" are imaginative compositions that have been well received in the lo-fi and electronic music scenes.
Later that year, on July 2nd DruiZ launched another project with fellow collaborators, called DAñSE, which encourages you to "listen to the sounds in your mind and let your dreams guide you". More music is expected to continue coming from the many projects DruiZ is involved in.
On March 2nd, 2023 DruiZ returns with a 4 song album named Recordatorio I that is inspired by life and existence and is a first reminder for the future artist to keep thriving with the completion of goals and dreams with the right intent.
Each song reflects on who we are individually. This self awareness also transcends to the idea of shared time and space between all our individualities as a collective. The connection between all of us, within the smallest molecules within ourselves, can be seen as constantly larger organisms, like flora, fauna, our planet, other planets, solar systems, galaxies, universes and infinity.
All music was composed and recorded by Daniel Ruiz (DruiZ), it was co-produced and mixed by Braeden Ragno at Vibe Cave Studios in Vancouver, BC, Canada and mastered by Greg reely. In these recordings, DruiZ plays the Bass Guitar, Drum Kit, Synthesizer, Piano, Xylophone, Flute, Organ, Sequences and electronics.
