Bio


Fusing the organic with the electronic, Ruben Dax is known for creating absorbing soundscapes and intricate rhythms. Born and based in New York City, Ruben scavenges sounds from everyday life, crafts his own musical instruments, and designs custom software, all of which combines to form his signature sound.

In performances, he constructs each layer of his music through multi-instrumental live looping.

In his last album, Oval Window, each song is a journey through a lush soundscape of polyrhythmic melodies, found sounds, and heavy beats. It follows the release of a solo EP - Incus - as well as a collaborative project with vocalist Sarah Glass - Treehouse.

In 2021 Ruben founded Copper & Cedar - an artisanal approach to the design and manufacture of innovative music technology hardware. With ProxiMIDI, the first product released by Copper & Cedar, the player glides their hand through the air to control sound and create music.
