Velvet Dream, the sophomore record and Broc Recordz debut for Atlanta-based, space rock outfit Rujen, is grounded in the idea that change can start with a shift in perspective and the realization that your future begins with a choice. Steeped in the warmth and character of analog tape delays and the quirky charm of vintage effects units, the album leans into themes of time, self-doubt, and personal growth across 11 tracks offering a fresh dose of 70s tinged, slacker jazz-rock grooves and fuzzed-out riffs that have come to define the band's unique brand of neo-psychedelia.
Rujen is a five-piece space rock outfit from Atlanta - consisting of frontman Ryan Miller, lead guitarist Creighton Perme, keyboardist Nick Hanchey, bassist Charlie Brady and drummer Ryan Barrett - that collages inspiration from 70s psychedelic rock, pop and soul. The "east coast band with a west coast sound" debuted in 2022 with their album Feel It's True, a collection of songs that were written and recorded at the group's home studio during their formative years in the late 2010s, and have shared the stage with acts such as The Bright Light Social Hour, Kate Bollinger, and Jared Mattson (of The Mattson 2). The band signed with Broc Recordz (EU) ahead of their anticipated sophomore album 'Velvet Dream' set to release June 27, 2025 (recorded and mixed by Drew Vandenberg (Faye Webster, of Montreal, Toro y Moi) in Athens, GA).
