“Outlook is like a summary of the changes that happened in both my musical and personal life during the creation of this EP. I tried to combine childhood memories with the perspective of the future and extract from them something dreamy and positive, which is lacking in the world at the moment.”

[ Release Info ]
Domas Ruškys, a.k.a Rushkeys, brings his musical background forward and is now exposing what he’s made of with his chill electronica EP Outlook. The Lithuanian artist creates music as another dimensional journey that also took place in several independent projects, ads, movies, and more in the last couple of years. Now Rushkeys is in a rush to make a name of his own with the organic bits arranged in the ambient puzzle Outlook released with the Stereofox team.
The drum pattern in every track strikes with a lushness that is arresting a childhood nostalgia. “Aurora” is the sunrise of the story full of shades and gripping synths, “Voyager” is for all the wild ones that only look up with a bubbly main melody that takes you to the next jams – “High Tide” and “Kira.” All ends with “Stargazer,” which is built from a softer start and takes the air around completely with its brave beat movement. For Outlook, Rushkeys plays the digital wind instrument Roland Aerophone giving the EP a unique instrumental speech.
Outlook is an EP to be loved alone and with friends as you all go back to the precious memories floating like a lonely mountain in your everyday life.
[ Artist Bio ]
Rushkeys, real name Domas Ruškys, is a Lithuanian electronic artist and producer based in Vilnius. Blending dreamy melodies with solid rhythmic grooves, his sound blurs the line between downtempo and organic house.
Rushkeys uses music as a means to express himself in truth and create connections. By fusing together electronic, organic, and world elements that are typically distinct, his sonic storytelling style communicates his emotions and experiences, drawing listeners into his unique artistic perspective.
Having grown up in a small town near the Baltic Sea, nature is a key creative inspiration for Rushkeys’ sound: he infuses every track with foley and organic textures to create a grounding yet otherworldly listening experience. His style further draws on elements from genres like ambient and chillwave.
As a professional sound engineer, producer, and composer, Rushkeys formally studied music from childhood, graduating from music school as a piano and saxophone player, before studying sound engineering and electronic music composition at The Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre. He has since worked in a recording studio for over a decade, building a creative career that spans commercial and independent projects, composing music for advertising, films, fashion shows and live performances.”
