Moscow Sounds on St. Petersburg Dance Floors

The joint action of two best independent Russian electronic labels continues - Moscow's Art-Tek Rec and St. Petersburg's Cheburec support each other in organizing concerts. Throughout the summer, a series of educational and demonstrational performances took place: St. Petersburg musicians and DJs showcased their talent in Moscow, while Moscow musicians performed in St. Petersburg. The next phase of the joint campaign will occur in the second half of September. This time, the Cheburec label and the band Ёлочные Игрушки invited the young Moscow project Mewark (Art-Tek Rec) to St. Petersburg. Mewark will perform for the first time before the St. Petersburg audience as part of the electronic Thursdays series in the "Milk" club. Mewark's second performance will take place on Saturday, September 21, at the recently opened concert season at the Gallery of Experimental Sound at "Pushkinskaya 10" (GEZ-21).

Short electronic tracks fit so organically into each reel that when switching to other TV channels, one wants to hear the same pleasant-sounding electronic backdrop. However, this is only possible on MTV. The sound designer for these musical cues is young Moscow musician Alexander Petrunin aka Mewark.
