A child of 90’s who witnessed and was influenced by the most rapid stages of evolution in electronic music. yutani’s vigorous passion for translating action into a sound wave brought him behind the decks. His music encompasses a wide range of cultural nuances from the breakbeat and electro molded with post-Soviet era sounds to the tribal drums encapsulated in deep and electrified waveforms.

Диджей как правильно сводить пластинки

@yutani_ripley

Hektor Khachatryan, aka yutani, is a rising star in the vibrant Armenian music scene. His fresh EP 'Noah's Rave On Ararat's Slope'—a sonic almanac of punchy eposes—expands the diverse roster of Get Busy, a label founded in Tatarstan in 2013.

The Yerevan-based producer acts as a prophet of ideas, assembling various sounds that reflect his heritage. His dark, epic, and challenging take on Armenian folklore shows that the cross-pollination of ancient and modern is not only possible but also naturally inevitable. Yutani weaves together carefully selected vocal samples, provided by his friend, musician Hayk Karoyi, with halftime rhythms and bass music elements. The result is a set of ritualistic and monumental tracks that transport the listener to an unsettling yet liberating atmosphere. One can never imagine what the greeting of the groom ('Tagvor Barov') sounds like or how the instrument zurna can be rediscovered until hearing yutani's work.

"I am a child of the 1990s who was deeply influenced by the electronic music of that time," says yutani. "I enjoy referencing that era in my work, and it often shines through. With this EP, I wanted to create something new and cinematic on a theme that is close to me—Armenian culture. I almost always imagine some abstract and dynamic scene and start writing music to fit that scene. Movement is the main motif."
