A veteran DJ, Ruslan began his career in 1995. He learned the craft from Matt E Love back in his Baselinelabs record shop in Framingham, Mass. He spent his time going through records and playing at the shop until famed Boston resident, DJ Manolo, noticed him and asked him to open for a live Jan Johnson performance. It went well, and he’s been laying down house music for the 20 years since, remaining motivated by his love of music and desire to keep the dance floor kicking. In 2016, he began his passion project, Minim Records, a vinyl only platform, featuring artists like Jay Tripwire, Derek Carr, Ohm Hourani, Pheek, Tijn, Jerome.c, Rithma, Kike Mayor, Yaroslav Lenzyak and more. 2020 saw him launch a diggers dream of a label Deep Sleep Robot that focuses on releasing previously released or overlooked material that was produced between 1990 and 2004. Some of the revisited artists include Len Lewis, Ronin, Johan Bacto, Van Delta and Dav. The labels allow him to find, fund, create, and release interesting music onto the scene. He resides in New York, where a constant influx of music inspires him, and he is able to inspire the many dance floors in return.
