RUBIN nIZRI
SOUND DESIGNER
When Rubin moved to the U.S.A. in 1991, he immediately began planning and working toward a studio career, recording and mixing at every level and opportunity available to him. He was 19 and broke in a new country, but that didn’t stop him from making music in any shape or form he could at the time. Through the years as he developed his knowledge and technique, he began investing in one piece of audio gear per month, long before he became the founder, owner, and chief engineer of New Record Studios in 1999. For the first thirteen years, New Record Studios was located in a church on the Upper East Side of New York City. Looking to grow, Rubin began searching for a new location. After two years, he found a spot that embodies the vibrancy and promise of the artists he works with - the Powerhouse Arts District of downtown Jersey City. His client list at New Record Studios includes quite a few names you may recognize including Stefani Germanotta (Lady Gaga), Jessie J, Sheryl Crow, Norah Jones, Esperanza Spaulding, Billy J.
