Who is Jesse Ruins? No one seems to know. But, does it matter? Three brilliant songs have been released slowly over the past six months–Dream Analysis, Inner Ambient, and Sofija–each one just as good as the last. While we don't know what Jesse Ruins looks like-we do know Jesse Ruins is from Tokyo and has put out a collaboration record on Cuz Me Pain records. In regards to the mystery–Jesse Ruins maintains "that [he or she] is not doing this intentionally." There are no plans for a record release, but it seems as if a great record is tantalizingly just out of reach–perchance the next great buzz album of 2011, or maybe even 2012. And so we wait and fall right into Jesse Ruin's web. Despite the mystery Jesse Ruins was nice enough to answer a few of Pas Un Autre's questions.
You go to some lengths to remain mysterious, anonymous even - why?
Well, I'm not doing this intentionally, but I'm just trying to remove unnecessary information.
Will you ever divulge your identity - or will you be anonymous forever?
It will come out when it's the right time. I even don't know when it's going to be.
Do you have an album coming out?
I want to release it, but there isn't any specific plan yet (label and stuff like that) at the moment.
All anyone seems to know is that you are from Japan - true or false?
It's true, I'm living in Tokyo.
How would you describe your music?
I cannot describe it in words, so I do that through my music. I think it's really up to each listener how he/she feels about it.
Keep updated on Jesse Ruinshere
