Brooklyn based @ruby_rae writes and performs music that defies easy categorization: a catalogue of influences would include Wanda Jackson, Mazzy Star, Stone Roses, and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. Both vibrant and dark, simultaneously catchy and psychological, the sound is cinematic and complex - drawing on diverse sources that include folklore, mythology, horror films, and autobiography.
“The Uncanny” evokes feelings of nostalgia for things that maybe never happened, hopes of returning home, and tries to understand what it takes to leave one life behind and start another once your heart is aflame. With a slight honkytonk throwback, her tunes are darker than your usual singer-songwriter fare, with noir-ish and Southern gothic influenced lyrics.

DJ Turntables + Yamaha HS8s
Objects by Alachie and Brick Sims
The turntables are an edit of an EA mesh from Get Together. Get Together is not required, however they are only functional as a stereo object. I really like how the turntables look extracted, it has a much more spontaneous look. It’s also much more appropriate for a home or apartment (please EA) type setting.
After I edited the turntable object I thought the setup looked a little too bare. So this was the perfect time to create something which I think has been lacking, some really nice speakers. As a producer myself a few speakers came to mind, but I picked the Yamaha HS8s because they have a very iconic design and are probably the best looking. Overall I’m really happy with the result. They aren’t high poly, yet still have all the bumps and crevices that bring an object like this to life – you won’t find google-images-photoskinning here. The specular also turned out pretty good; it works nicely with all those bumps I was just talking about.
The turntables come in 2 swatches, the default EA texture, and the same but with UI on the screens (pictured). And the monitors also come in 2 swatches, black and white, maching the IRL models.
