This element is what makes Rusic Music one of the most sought out production companies in underground hip hop. Founded in 1996 by drummer/producer Daru Jones, Rusic takes pride in creating music for unsigned artist thus providing a platform for talent that is yet heard by the masses. Despite its growing popularity Rusic Music has maintained its integrity. Production is only granted to artists who create music that inspire and deliver positive messages. Rusic music will be available at major industry events and fundraisers. * * *Daru Beats Compilation Volume 2 (Title of Project: For promotional use only **)* Mr. Jones reveals his versatility as the song genres on this compilation span from jazz to rap. Listeners are also introduced to soul-hop. A style of music Daru describes as Hip Hop and Soul/R&B singing merged with classic Rusic production. True hip hop fans will also appreciate the presence of Dj Psycho's timeless instrumental featuring Wu-Tang Clan Old Dirty Bastard. The resonance of this project is aggressive yet remaining profanity free; instantly a classic. *Feat artist include: * Rena…Songstress (Michigan currently signed to 4lux records in the UK The Dugout…Hip Hop Band (New York) Future…Spoken Word Artist (Michigan) Dj Psycho (Detroit) *18 Tracks -------------------------------------------------- Myspace Bio THE DRUMMER OF OUEST AND MANY OTHER LOCAL GROUPS,(DARU JONES BORN IN MICHIGAN)BECAME ONE OF THE MOST RESPECTED DRUMMERS IN HIS OWN RIGHT.HIS INSTEREST IN MUSIC WAS DEMONSTRATED WHEN HE PICKED UP THE STICKS AT THE AGE OF FOUR.BEAT AFTER BEAT, IN HIS TEENAGE YEARS HE ADVANCED HIS DRUMMING BY ATTENDING DRUM CHART READING CLASSES.
