about

Rubin is a german-canadian composer for film and media who was born and raised by a painter and a photographer in Cologne (Germany).

His early introduction to music started at the age of 6 when he started playing the piano and became a member of the Cologne Cathedral Choir. Being a soprano his passion for melody grew and he expanded upon that by writing his own piano pieces.

Taking lessons at the Jazzhouse School in Cologne he improved his talent for improvisation and his teacher Ron Cherian taught him to strengthen the structure of his compositions and maintain the listeners interest while improvising.

His music usually starts with a concept and him sitting down at the piano often early in the morning. After exploring the characters, the setting or the history of the project he chooses the appropriate instrumentation. Through this, Rubin also ventures to other genres and Instruments but always returns home to his piano.

Rubin's work is featured in feature films, documentaries, short films and advertisements.

"Arklow is a little harbor town on the east coast of Ireland where I spent a lot of time and where I saw my first live concert as a child. I used to wait there a long time for my pickup to get to the little cottage we had in a small town next to it. During this waiting period, I spent my time watching the seagulls, the boats coming in and leaving, or walking up and down the main street. This track was created because I had to wait for a friend who wanted to come over to mine in order to record a piano piece together. Sitting in front of my piano waiting reminded me of the feeling I used to have in Arklow, so I started walking up and down the keyboard waiting for his arrival."
