Fight Music Producer Mikey Rukus Lands Record Deal
Three years ago Mikey Rukus, also known as 'The Fight Music Producer', began creating customized walkout songs and theme music for MMA fighters and fight companies around the globe. Last week Rukus officially inked record agreement with Debar Recordings, a division of Debar Holdings Ltd. based out of Orlando, Fl. The agreement includes stateside and international distribution of his debut album on digital platforms and manufactured CDs that will be sold in Best Buys stores and several other brick and mortar establishments across the US.
Mikey Rukus had this to say about the newly inked deal, “This was something that totally came out of left field. I definitely wasn’t expecting anything like this, but I am very excited and thankful for the opportunity to work with a company like Debar Recordings. They fully understand my vision and have the same ideas that I have in terms of extending the 'Rukus' brand within the mixed martial arts market. The timing is right and they are 100% on board with supporting my journey.”
The album titled 'MMA Fight Music' is a mix of rock and hip hop hybrids and EDM and will feature some of The Fight Producer's most notable walkout songs. The customized tracks were created for marquee fighters such as UFC veterans Mark Hunt and Colin “Freakshow” Fletcher and Invicta FC Atomweight Champion Michelle “The Karate Hottie” Waterson. The album will also feature several original tracks created by Rukus, including one inspired by UFC President Dana White and an exclusive track that will only be available on this album.
'MMA Fight Music' will be available on digital platforms such as iTunes, Pandora, Google Play, XBOX Store and other similar outlets beginning on Tuesday September 17, 2013. Hard copy CDs will hit store shelves in approximately 6 weeks. The first batch of CD's released will include a FREE Mikey Rukus autographed t-shirt. Be a part of history, and download your copy of “MMA Fight Music” on 9/17 by the industry’s first ever 'Fight Music Producer', Mikey Rukus.
