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.
