==Music==

===Musical beginnings===
At the age of 8, Daniel learned to play the accordion, but gave it up after three years.

When he was 12 years old he started producing Hardcore Techno music on his [[Amiga 500]] using [[Protracker]], he later switched to the PC using [[FastTracker 2]]. In 1997 he bought his first set of Turntables and taught himself how to DJ.

In 1999 Ruczko got interested in [[Drum and Bass]] and decided to make that his new genre, at first he used [[Fruity Loops]] to experiment but pretty quickly found his new home in [[Steinberg Cubase]], which is still his main Software for music today.

He established himself as a serious DJ and producer, known for his cinematic and dark sound, and played over 450 gigs in his DJing career.

===Misfit Music===

"Misfit Music" or "Rusher, Kayohes & V3rb" is a [[Hip hop group]] entirely produced by Ruczko, with him also directing their music videos. <br />
After releasing the single "Some Way, Some How / March On" on Origu in 2015, the group is in the process of finishing up their debut Album with the title "Ordinary Madness" which is expected to be released in 2019.
