Hailing from Lille, France, Clawz SG has been an avid electronic music enthusiast from a young age. His passion for producing was initially something he engaged in purely for himself and his friends, however after much support and encouragement, he finally decided to take that final leap, thus paving way for the birth of Clawz SG. 
Clawz SG stays true to his roots and remains an old school synth aficionado, having collected an impressive selection of numerous analogue vintage synthesizers over the years. His name has become synonymous with the Deep House and Melodic Techno sounds of today. 
His debut release with Parquet Recordings in 2014, was a significant milestone clocking up two highly acclaimed collaborated tracks titled “Obvious” and “Abyss”. The success from Parquet 082 cemented a solid springboard for his musical art form and opened the flood gates to a succession of accomplished releases. To date he has remixed and produced originals with a number of well-established labels and his creative aspirations have compelled him to embark on a new and exciting phase of his career by joining the Steyoyoke Recordings family. 
With numerous releases and EPs under his belt, broadening his career will never change Clawz SG’s deep-seated morals or values. He’s an individual with strong family ties, even dedicating an entire EP to his family and proudly upholds many noble attributes within all his professional connections, which assures lasting relationships and solid honest partnerships within the industry. 
With all these positive traits and artistic facets to boast, Clawz SG has definitely found kindred spirits in his alliance with the Steyoyoke family. 2024 is looking bright with a new album on the horizon.

In 2020 Ruben’s name got known to the modern electronic music industry with a signing on Greek imprint Movement Recordings, receiving massive remix treatment by heroes of Progressive House such as Stan Kolev & Emi Galvan in his ‘Gignesthai’ single that came in November, while his 2nd release entitled 'Hathor' including remixes by Matan Caspi & Stan Kolev reached #1 on Beatport’s Top10 prog releases. In 2021 Ruben signed with UK-based Lowbit Records with ‘Teardrop’ & ‘Karo’ following in Spring 2021 with remix treatment by Paul Angelo & Don Argento, and Alfonso Muchacho.
