rubycon
RUBYCON is a genre bonding, Brooklyn based electro art rock ensemble, employing synths, strings, and melodic falsetto vocals to deliver witty lyrics over a bed of bouncy beats. Their music morphs from tropical sci-fi to gothic futurism, sparking revolution in the hearts of audiences exploring gender, sex, morality and the human spirit. The shows are playful, shamanic experiences wild enough to make wallflowers dance, so dress to revel.
“Vibrant colors swirl and swarm as emotions fly higher than high on Rubycon’s vivid new music video ‘Buku Love.’ A dynamic burst of lively visuals mesmerizes the eyes as warm electro-pop dazzles the ears, inviting us to bask in the untamed exploration that is Rubycon”
“to listen to buku love is to be transported to a place not completely tethered to reality; it’s more like a room hidden deep in my brain that’s filled with stimulants, and I want to hang out in it for a very long time.”
You sneak a kiss when no one’s lookin’ in the service cornucopia
Have you told him yet or have you let the rhyme grow a pinocchio?
The rules of this game never change and yet they never stay the same for long
I used to play guitar but then I quit and now I just play something else
You can’t hold onto me, I’m ephemeral but don’t just let me go
I don’t need anything, I got buku love but oh I want you so
I can see you bring ‘em down to their knees and let ‘em kiss your hem
But those who worship us aren’t worth a fuss they’ll never make a saint of you
You almost cry when I’m inside and then your game catches up with us
I heard your song before I don’t know where but now its spinning in again
You can’t hold onto me, I’m ephemeral, but don’t just let me go
I don’t need anything, I got buku love but oh I want you so
We can't hold onto our love ephemeral, but don’t just let it go
I don’t need anything, I got buku love but oh I want you so
I got buku love and oh I want you so
Ah ah ah oh la oh la oh I got buku love and oh I want you so
Ah ah ah oh la oh la oh I got buku love and oh I want you so
