rhubiqs is the solo project of London-based musician Tom Squires.

As rhubiqs Squires is known for creating far-reaching electronic and ambient experimental post-rock sounds – immersive soundscapes that expertly marry the lines between organic and synthetic, drawing influence from pioneers like Stars of the Lid, Tim Hecker, and Fennesz.

With a focus on texture, atmosphere, and emotional depth, rhubiqs crafts sonic worlds that evoke introspection, transformation, and a sense of timelessness.

Squires’ debut self-titled rhubiqs LP was self-released in 2019, where he explored electronica tendencies coupled with ambient post-rock layers to great effect.

Early 2020 saw Squires self-release the Migratory Paths LP, further honing his sound and drawing attention from a number of media sources.

Echoes & Dust said of the lead single: “As the beautiful melancholic piano playing starts and the guitar begins it’s a soft lullaby, the track blooms and grows, creating a bright soundscape. A great tease to a cool album.”

2021-2023 saw Squires turn his attention to his other band – Transatlantic Alliance, a post-rock group who released an LP on Post. Recordings, as well as a remix album with contributions from Mogwai, Holy Fawn, We Lost The Sea & more.

Of his Transatlantic Alliance work Veil of Sound said: “The sheer amount of atmosphere present on this album is breathtaking”

rhubiqs returned in 2024 with his most ambitious release to date – Aegis of Silence – onAffin.

Calling it “his best work yet”, Sun-13 went on to say: “on Aegis of Silence, Squires throwsdown the gauntlet with a series of compositions that are rich, alluring and ethereal inequal measure.”

2025 promises further rhubiqs releases on the Affin label: a full LP and remix EP are bothconfirmed, with further works in progress too.
