His music is marked by gentle, almost fragile melodies, broken rhythmic patterns, minimalistic arrangements and characteristic textured layering of musical themes. Statix contains a sense of passage. Journeys through the fractal patterns of Petersburg’s yards, the white magic of Valaam and the magical colour of Cuba. A visit to the dead abyss of Chernobyl, the loneliness of Yaroslavl’s grey walls and the timelessness of trips through Russia, a motherland. The author admits that only travel reveals the true movement inside you.</font></div><div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 22px;"><font face="Century Gothic"><br></font></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><font face="Century Gothic">Best wishes</font></div><div><font face="Century Gothic"><br></font></div><div apple-content-edited="true">
