Born in 1971 – Dustin A. Ruoff was raised in a household obsessed with Star Trek, NASA, aviation, Creature Double Feature (Boston area folks will remember this), ELO, Styx, classic SciFi movies of all varieties, Gerry Anderson TV Shows, all new SciFi TV and Movies that hit the market… and most of all – Carl Sagan’s COSMOS series.

Arriving at UNH in 1991 – he took part of his first student loan check and purchased an Apple Mac Quadra 660AV.  Obsessed with the cyberpunk lifestyle written about in Mondo 2000 and sung about by the likes of Front 242 and Front Line Assembly… he immersed himself in all aspects of digital art, music and the blossoming multimedia industry.  Eventually graduating with a BA in Technical Theater, and spending 5 years at WUNH 91.3 as a DJ, General Manager and Production Manager, he took a step into the professional world selling his beloved Macintosh computers for the largest retailer in the NorthEast.

He began writing and recording music under the name Mosfet in 2005 and has completed 3 albums for the internationally acclaimed – RPM Challenge – http://www.rpmchallenge.com

Mosfet has performed 15+ live shows around the NH Seacoast/Boston area, including a Yelp.com sponsored show “Modulations” at the MIT Museum in January 2008, and as an opening act for Film School (LA) when they played in Portsmouth NH in April 2008.

Star Stuff Studios is an homage to Carl Sagan – and a life-long work in progress for Dustin A. Ruoff.
