Victor Ruiz

We have been having a blast getting to know some of Earthcore’s players a little better, and Victor Ruiz is no exception. With a passion that is equal across music, life and love, our time with the electronic music maestro was as inspiring as it was a pleasure.
Hey Victor, thanks for taking time to have a chat with Forte. For those who aren’t familiar with who you are, can you briefly describe your style and what it is you do?
Hi! You are more than welcome! Well, it’s very simple what I do: electronic music. But the hard part is to describe and define it. All I can say it’s heavy, uplifting, sometimes hypnotic and sometimes ‘straight-forward’. I love putting my rock ’n’ roll influences on my music, so if you listen carefully, you can note it.
What have you been up to lately and where are you right now?
I’ve been playing every weekend around Brazil. Two months ago I was in my first world tour for two months and it was amazing. And now I am at home, enjoying my girl and my three cats.
Not a lot of people fully appreciate electronic music. What would you say to them?
Enjoy life, be happy and love more. Actually, these I would say to everyone in the world. 🙂
What do you think of the Australian electronic music scene? Do you have any favourites?
To be honest, I don’t know much about the Australian electronic music scene, but I am very, very curious. I know some people that live there and they say to me that there are some crazy parties out there.
Where do you get inspiration from?
The true inspiration of the whole of mankind will always be from the Divine. This may sound awkward to a lot of people, but this is true. I have to be connected to the Light to get inspiration. An example is my girl. She inspires me a lot. Her love inspires me. My love for her inspires me. So then I know I am connected.
In your long history of touring you’ve been to some pretty amazing corners of the world. Where has been your favourite place to play?
I will pick up Argentina (they are crazy and know how to party), Germany (Berlin is special – it is a very unique place and I LOVE IT!) and of course Brazil.
What do you think of the Australian crowds? Do we know how to party?
This I will tell you after Earthcore festival. 😉
Are you excited to be playing at Earthcore?
I am very excited to play at Earthcore and make people dance and be happy!
What can the audience expect from your set at Earthcore?
Mostly my productions, with other stuff I love. Let it be a surprise.
Do you have any tricks to get people up and dancing?
I produce and play my music from my heart and I love what I do, so maybe this can be a trick – LOVE.
Before we finish up, is there anything you’d like to add?
Australia, here I come to dance and party with you. Thank you! 🙂
When&Where: Earthcore, Pyalong – November 27 – December 1
