Bing & Ruth is an ambient music ensemble that operates under the creative direction of American composer and pianist David Moore. The group, having its origins at New York City's prestigious New School, where Moore was studying music, has carved out a compelling niche within the modern classical and ambient music landscapes. With a fluctuating lineup that often includes a combination of piano, clarinets, voices, and other electronic or acoustic timbres, Bing & Ruth's music is renowned for its nuanced, meditative exploration of space, harmony, and the emotive possibilities of minimalism.

Since the release of their debut album "City Lake" in 2010, Bing & Ruth have consistently garnered critical acclaim. Albums like "Tomorrow Was the Golden Age" and "No Home of the Mind" exhibit the ensemble's distinctive approach to serene soundscapes and subtle dynamic flow, inviting the listener into introspective journeys. Their 2020 release "Species" marks a seminal moment, reflecting Moore's deepening interest in the Farfisa organ and its potential within the form of long-form rhythmic repetition. The album, along with its companion releases, such as "Species (solo piano)" and the assorted remixes like "Badwater Psalm (Nailah Hunter Remix)" and "Badwater Psalm (Khotin Remix)," showcases Bing & Ruth's evolving exploration of the interconnections between minimalistic composition and electronic experimentation.
