Closure of Pitch store
Музыкальные российские · 13.05.2007
Statement from the Pitch team:
Nearly ten years separate today from August 1997, when the first customers entered a small room with crates of vinyl records. A room that became a place for many of them for daily hangouts, where you could always meet famous Moscow DJs, music lovers, and all those who lived by electronic music. Here, life was boiling, the latest releases were discussed, records were exchanged, parties were discussed, and everything related to club life; a room that was the beginning of an interesting and challenging path, coinciding with the development of the Russian club scene; a room that over all these years has turned into one of the most legendary stores in the heart of Moscow.
But everything ends someday. Or rather, the time comes when it ends. The step you are standing on ends, and you realize that you want to take the next step, rise higher, understand what you have achieved and what you strive for next, and why?
Have you ever wondered if music has a soul, if it has something that makes you believe, hope, love, and rejoice in life? Now, after spending ten years with it, we can confidently say to you - Yes!
Times change, technologies change, carriers change... we change. But each of us has something that remains unchanged - and it is called love - that very love that is embedded in us from birth, from the very first moment of our lives. It manifests in everything - just need to hear it, feel it, and sincerely trust it.
Music for us is the manifestation of this love.
Sometimes you listen to the classics and realize that the person who wrote the 'Moonlight Sonata' is simply a genius, and his work - a legend! And this legend will live forever! It was, is, and always will be...
But there is one thing, technological progress; not long ago we stood in lines and tried to find our favorite record with a gramophone recording, then switched to cassettes, they were replaced by CD discs and, finally, digital format, which each time creates obstacles to finding the true work and its creator. It creates obstacles to all those who appreciate the sound quality and what is embedded in it, to all those who sincerely want to convey this sound, the sound that comes from their soul.
Today, for these reasons, after 10 years of existence, the Pitch brand is closing its store, shutting down the website www.pitch.ru, and turning over the old written page of its book.
We are not leaving the music scene; we are simply changing the direction of our activities to continue what we live for.
Today, we invite you to visit the website of the professional music publishing house 'Pitch Music Publishing,' prepared for all those who remain faithful to music, that music that makes you create, experience, move, live, and love!
It's just the beginning... www.pitch-music.com
