“RUBIT” is a creative reimagining of Aurora Dream’s debut album, RUBIX, released in 2023. The project transforms the original compositions into a nostalgic 8-bit experience, merging instrumental music with the spirit of retro gaming inspired by classic franchises such as Pokémon, Zelda, and others that shaped my childhood. Created in collaboration with Kevin Weaver, a well-known YouTuber and 8-bit music enthusiast, RUBIT preserves the core identity of RUBIX while exploring entirely new sonic territory.
Serving as a tribute to the video game soundtracks that influenced me from an early age, the album blends retro aesthetics with Aurora Dream’s modern, guitar-driven approach. RUBIT features nine carefully crafted tracks, each designed to capture the atmosphere of classic games while honoring the original compositions. By reinterpreting these pieces through an 8-bit lens, the project creates a fusion of past and present—where nostalgic melodies meet contemporary guitar techniques. RUBIT reflects my passion for experimentation and innovation, highlighting the limitless potential of instrumental music and creative expression.
