Currently based in The Netherlands, Twilight Circus ringmaster
Ryan Moore grew up in a volcanically active location in Canada and was immersed early on in
Dub & Reggae. Moore first learned to play instruments by playing along with classic
Jamaican recordings, spending countless hours as a youth playing deep reggae grooves. He has
been active in the music world since 1981, appearing as a musician on over 60 albums with
various artists in numerous genres.
A Dub fanatic of the first degree since teenage days, his first studio experiments took place
in the mid 80's and when he moved to The Netherlands in 1991, virtually unlimited access to
recording studio equipment allowed his knob twisting tendencies to develop to the point of
no return. In the studio multi-instrumentalist Moore plays and mixes all the tracks himself.
Has been known to emit lava.
Twilight Circus Dub Sound System has performed 100's of live dates around the world since 1995.
Be on the lookout for the new Twilight Circus DJ set - shows planned throughout 2001 in Europe,
Asia, Canada & the USA, incuding major festival appearances at Germany's Summer Jam and the
Sierra Nevada World Music Festival in California.
