Who is GeminiWorm?

About Me

Rui is back in the studio after taking some time off. "I love the direction of my first CD" explains Rui. He loves solid funky ass beats that keep your head bopin' and your feet stompin'. His first track is a ballad called "Somethng Inside." It is a duet Featuring talented friends who are in tune with Rui's vision. Rui wrote some of the music for this tune back in the summer of 2004, and finished it in January 2008. Rui's performance includes; Drums, electronic bass guitar, Synth, main and backing vocals. Guests on this track include; Craig McRae on acoustic, lead and Rhythm guitars. Sarah Cimbron on Piano, main and backing vocals.From Rui; "I think that since I have been performing with my cover band (Stone Slinger) that it has brought me back to my roots. It is very cool singing tunes that I grew up with and partied too. I think that its good to keep in touch with the fathers of music. I have hooked up with musicians and a great DJ and am looking to take GeminiWorm to the next level. I need to bring it on live. I did a show last Summer at the Reverb in Toronto and rocked the house. people were screamin' after every tune. I want and need to feel more of that."A little bit about Rui. He grew up on metal and hard rock, but had an open mind and ear for all types of music. He started out as a drummer. Studied at College of Percussion for a few years. As he matured he started to take interest in vocals. Slowly he got recongnized for his vocal abilities. Performing in bands such as "Heatscore/Justin Sane/Q/Judge Mental/Wild Lead/Dream Widow/Jeff Walker Band/Turbulance/Wank Punter and many more." He has now made a name for himself as a top notch vocalist. He is a hired gun for vocal session work at Studio92 in Toronto.CheersMyspace Backgrounds

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 1/15/2006
Band Members:Rui performed everything accept for guitars on "Asian Eyes' and "Mirror Mirror". Special guests include Mike Moran, DJ Boom Boom Ricochet (Joe T.) and Craig McRae. A very special thanks to Craig for his work on "Asian Eye's" and "Mirror Mirror." And hat's off to DJ Boom Boom Ricochet for the outstanding mixes and blends on "Love Drug" There is one other dude who was Rui's right hand man in recording and producing, and that is Norm Barker. Engineer and producer on this disc. He is Rui's tight end when it comes to music. And a true friend. They have both recorded many projects together and I am sure there will be many more to come. What a team.
Influences: Rui grew up with Metal and Hard Rock, but at a later age started listening to everything from Mozart to Madonna. Bands he likes to listen too "Judas Priest/Black Sabbath/Dio/Scorpions/Ozzy/Rainbow/Queen/Iron Maiden/Motley Crew/deep Purple/Van Halen/Guns & Roses/Disturbed/Godsmack/Rob Zombie/Nine Inch Nails/Alice in Chains/S.T.P./Rage Against the Machine/Tool and so much more. This shit gets him pumped up big time and ready to face anything. When Rui wants to just chill he listens too easy listening/Hip Hop/Gangster/Club. Vocal influences; wow, where do I start. Lets see...there is Ronnie James Dio, Anne Wilson, Rob Halford, Axl Rose, Ian Gillan, Tony Martin, Ozzy, Jeff Tait and there are so much more, but these vocalists helped Rui become what he is and who he is. All these gods I’ve listed above have a spot in Rui’s heart that fueled up his soul. They were his teachers.from Rui; Love ya and I thank ya.
Sounds Like: GeminiWorm is an original sound, but if I were to say, it is influenced by Nine inch Nails,Rob Zombie and many other bands and artists Rui grew up with. The dark side of things comes from within.

Music should never be about anything else. It is all about the soul. What we artists are feeling deep inside at the time. It is expressed in the music. And when listened too, you feel all the emo...
