David Rubato

MusicBlog

Location: Paris

Bio: The name is David Rubato. He lives in Paris. He’s in his twenties. Former rave kid. Not a DJ.
Among his favorite books: The Lydian ... (more) Chromatic Concept of Tonal Organization by George
Russell.
He studied composition and musicology, but dance music is something of a calling. Got into
techno very young. At 15, Rubato writes to French techno legend Laurent Garnier to ask him
how to use a TB 303. Garnier calls him up and invites him to come and meet him at Rex Club.
Rubato wants to go but can’t, for reasons I want to disclose but can’t.
Circuit was his first release, recorded live in one take and edited down to 5 and 8 minutes versions. It’s House
and Electro fighting for track domination, with Disco providing treacherous air support to both. It garnered rave reviews and acclaim from across the spectrum, from cosmic disco druids to hardcore electro enthusiasts. Rubato went on to remix Midnight Juggernauts, Alizée and more and produced the official Institubes theme song: Institubes Express 999, featuring Teki Latex and Manda Djinn.
He is currently recording his next Institubes 12".
Out soon: Circuit, Lap 2, with remixes from Aeroplane, DJ Mehdi, Steve Moore and Siriusmo.
