Reuben Experiment: Sonic Freedom Through Sound and Soul
By Tipster Media / July 2025
Reuben Experiment is not just a music project—it's a living, breathing revolution of rhythm, soul, and consciousness. Born from the mind of Filipino artist Reuben Oporto Tiomico IV, this creative venture blurs the lines between reggae, blues, experimental soundscapes, and social awareness. Reuben uses music as a weapon of truth, a healer of pain, and a mirror of reality.
The Origins
Reuben began making music as a personal reflection—an expression of raw emotion and a response to the chaos of the world. Drawing from his early roots in blues and reggae, he later ventured into deeper experimental realms, forming what is now known as Reuben Experiment—a project that speaks freely, grooves wildly, and stands firmly on principles.
The Sound
Every track is an experiment—not just in musical style, but in philosophy. Deep basslines, gritty guitar riffs, and ambient textures collide with spoken word, chants, and raw vocals. Think of dub reggae merging with psychedelic rock, layered with the blues of the soul and the rebellion of the street.
Signature songs like “Mahirap Ang Masanay”, “panambitan”, and “sintetiko” are more than music—they are statements, calling out the system, exploring inner struggles, and promoting unity and truth.
The Message
Reuben is never afraid to speak the truth. His lyrics echo themes of freedom, social justice, spiritual awakening, and cultural pride. Influenced by the struggles of everyday Filipinos, he uses his art to inspire others to rise, to question, and to never lose their soul in a world full of noise.
The Movement
More than just an artist, Reuben Experiment is a movement of creators, thinkers, rebels, and peace warriors. Whether performing live, releasing visual art, or collaborating with other underground acts, Reuben continues to push the boundary of what independent music can do.
The Future
With upcoming releases, underground gigs, and powerful visual content, Reuben Experiment is on a mission to elevate voices and vibrations. As Reuben often says:
