About Alex Ruis

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My first attempts at eliciting sounds from my mother's old piano. I must have been 3-6 years old and went over the keyboard about like a cat. Anyway, my mother was not pleased, chased me away and I didn't touch the keys again for about 10 years.

Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Careful with That Axe, Eugene (Live)” Careful with That Axe, Eugene is a very dramatic piece of the very first album - Ummagumma - I ever bought. I have always felt that people should be careful with sharp tools and this sounds like a confirmation that I am right about that. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Late in 2019, I "just" started releasing my unique music because I expect that I might be doing a huge favor to 0.01% of the world's population. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Even before I started my musical projects, I asked myself who, besides my wife, would like to listen to my music. From the data I gathered, my music is listened to from all over the world by young and old. Some more from Western countries.
