Using Soundcloud as a platform to release new material saw the band boost both interest and popularity as their reach extended worldwide with their energetic and ambient electronic sound. As advocates for the DIY approach, the band tend kept all productions low key and had all artwork designed by George’s brother allowing the band to have full control over the all aspects of their art. The following year the band released the “Blue” EP with the single “This Summer”. The result of these recordings would become their debut self-titled EP which they released in 2011 featuring the first single “We Left” on their own label Monkeleon. Once the material had been produced, James Hunt (drums) from a local indie band completed the line-up and the vision for RÜFÜS was realised.

Bonding through their mutual love of artists such as: Booka Shade, Trentemoller and Royksopp, they experimented with a more electronic sound and recorded the outcome in their bedrooms. Having just completed a sound engineering course, Jon George (keys) met Tyrone Lindqvist (vocals) through his brother and he jumped on board to record to his Lindqvist’s solo acoustic project.
