Ruoho Ruotsi is a composer and producer based in Seattle. His music is largely improvisatory in nature, nourished by interests in natural progressions, reverberant bass accents and inter-wreathed textural deployments. His sonic jaunts draw upon the visceral aesthetics of dub, techno, garage and impractical melodic leitmotifs from experimental electro-acoustics, fusing them into imaginative new musical opportunities. His music has been described by some as “vaporous”, “aching and expansive”, “a wicked dub abstraction” or as “Jamaica-meets-Detroit with jazz legend Eric Dolphy at the helm”.

In 2006, Ruoho Ruotsi won an international BBC Radio 1 remix competition, reshaping Steve Reich's seminal piece “Music for 18 Musicians”, leading to an appearance on Steve Reich - Reich: Remixed, by Warner Bros. Records (Nonesuch).

Ruoho Ruotsi has released 12" vinyl records on De'fchild Productions (San Francisco), Skor Records (Los Angeles), Unfulfillment (Montréal), Zero G Sounds (Boston), Thoughtless Music (Toronto) and done remixes for Adjunct Digital (Los Angeles), Auralism (San Francisco) & Creaked Records (Switzerland). He has performed live at the Winter Music Conference (Miami), Decibel Festival (Seattle) as well as numerous underground venues across North America.
