“Now that the Internet has become an integral part of this generation, “making it” online as a singer seems more like a fever dream than anything else. Playing covers of your favourite songs and putting it on YouTube simply isn’t going to cut it anymore. Aspiring musicians today have a much steeper mountain to climb than they did 10 years ago–self-producing, self-publicity, and basically being a one-man band seem to be the minimum requirements to even be considered for the fickle Internet spotlight. And once you’ve made it this far, there really isn’t much more you can do besides hope that people out there will enjoy your music.
For Manila-based bedroom-pop artist Ruru (Ru Quimbo), she’s just about done everything that she can do by herself. She’s released those YouTube covers announcing her presence as an artist (interestingly, her choice of songs are from the indie rock canon: Mac Demarco and King Krule), she’s self-produced her own music, and her album packaging is hand-drawn. In terms of being a self-made artist, Ruru fits that description to a T.” - From The Intercom, Li-Wei Chu, September 2 2018

♪ lyrics ♪
she said to me she’d rather be tied down
than let uncertainty get the best
but he wants to play outside
darling won’t you come and rest with me?
but he wants to have some fun tonight
so hold my hand and don’t think a word
maybe we have a future or maybe we won’t last another world?
darling won’t you come and rest with me?
