Who am I?

Multi-instrumentalist musician, sound healer, composer, music producer 

Hi, I’m Ruy. I’m a truthseeker who learned with monks, shamans, peacemakers, musicians, therapists, schools and mystics from many parts of the world, in a mission of integrating modern and ancient ways of music and spirituality to bring peace to Earth.  

 

Born in Lima, Peru in 1991, I’ve been working as a Sound Healer for around 12 years, holding the space for many groups in different countries. I play many instruments. Different kinds of flutes: Quena, mama quena, bansuri, silver flute, pan flute, native american, clay whistles, strings: bass guitar, classical and electric guitar, didgeridoo, djembe, drums, lots of sound effects, seeds, synthesizers, keyboards, pads, loop machines and midi controllers to DJ and live looping.

I’ve been producing music since I was 17.  I’ve released 5 official studio albums (available on all digital platforms) of my own music during these past 12 years of career and have worked on other projects (see Music Works tab). I love to create small universes, musical landscapes. The genres I play and create include: New age, electronic, relaxing, experimental, rock, psychedelic rock, indie rock, flute rock, rock-pop, electro-pop, singer-songwriter, world music, medicine music, mantras, ancestral, tribal, live looping. 

And recently diving into Electronic Dance Music, live Organic Beats and Ecstatic Dance sets.

In 2016, I won a scholarship that took me to a beautiful island in Thailand to learn with monks in a meditation retreat for  artists of all disciplines from all around the world, organized by NGO Peace Revolution. I learned how meditation can boost your creativity and how you can express your soul in surprising ways.

I completed 6 Vipassana 10-day silence meditation retreats that helped me to cultivate inner peace and to feed my music and my soul. I did many other meditation retreats with my Buddhist teacher, Lama Karma Chotso, with whom I practiced for a long time, specially learned to meditate, buddhist philosophy and to sing Tibetan mantras.

In 2 years I organized around 15 wellness/healing retreats between the Sacred Valley, Lima, and the Amazon jungle of Peru. I assisted and helped experienced shamans in Ayahuasca and San Pedro ceremonies (plant medicines) and learned a lot about how invisible energies work. How sound is interconnecting all dimensions and heals deeply when you’re sincere and pure hearted with music, with voice and true expression.

I’ve been a facilitator of psylocibin microdose ceremonies with Sound Healing, live music and guided meditation. I’ve also shared Wachuma ceremonies for small groups 🌵.

I taught during many years Sound Healing teacher trainings in Peru and online, and formed a big tribe of students. 

In 2023 I moved out from Peru and did a small tour, starting in Panama, then played in different venues in Europe: in Sweden, Latvia, Germany, France and Spain. Then I decided to stay in Europe 🇪🇺

I’m half Dutch, so moved in Jan 2024 to the Netherlands, to understand my European roots and integrate my both lineages. 🇵🇪🇳🇱 . 

I was based in Amsterdam till the end of 2024 📍
I’ve been making intercultural, healing and musical bridges, creating events and having collaborations with peacemakers, artists and mystics from all around the world 🌍

Now I’m teaching Sound Healing for the European community and playing in gatherings, events, festivals this 2025 that I’m touring again in Europe.
