Born and raised in Redwood City, California, Christopher Gerald Ruane (aka Hans) spent majority of his adolescent years writing creatively and immersing himself in various genres of music. Not only has Hans produced and released several renowned projects in recent years, but he has begun creating a buzz on an international scale. Most recently, Hans has released "Truth," a 16 song project that has already begun to turn heads across the globe. As time has passed and things have changed, so has Hans and his music. He continues to make music on a daily basis, and has already begun to work on his next solo project.

Whether it's mixing and mastering or just making a good song, Hans does it all. His innate abilities as a studio engineer and producer/composer have helped play a huge role in the Bay Area's dance and contemporary music scene.
