michael gray - the weekend (sped up)

On November 18 of 2020, Vladivostok was hit by a Blizzard. I was studying that day. I had the plan to record a video podcast with my tutor at the time, Dmitry Morozov (vtol). The studio was set up and people were waiting for us. The producer called and said there is no electricity, and we can't make it today. So I decided to go home. The weather was brutal. The road usually takes me 10 minutes take almost half an hour. I was constantly falling. I was wet, cold, and bruised from falling on the ice. The wind was insane. 
When I was home, I was shaking from adrenaline and was grateful I survived. The next morning I woke up from crackling noises. I open up the shades and I saw massive branches fall from the trees one by one. The ice on the branches was too heavy. Every piece of grass becomes an ice obelisk. As terrifying the experience was, as beautiful as it looks after it was over.

Cuartero - Only One

Recorded during Alla Pugacheva’s Grand Prix-winning appearance at the Golden Orpheus Festival in Bulgaria, 1975, this haunting love song captured both the vulnerability and strength of her voice — and a generation’s longing.
This restored version enhances the orchestral warmth and live ambiance, preserving one of the most emotional moments in her early career, just before the world would hear “Arlekino”
✨ Restored and reimagined in 2025 to mark the 50th anniversary in 2025.


🎙️ Alla Pugacheva – Ты снишься мне [You Appear In My Dreams] (Live at Golden Orpheus, 1975 – Restored)

Born in the USSR, raised on reel-to-reel and rhythm. A life soundtracked by Soviet estrada, Euro/Italo disco, and 70s Western funk — reimagined for dancefloors and daydreams.

🌀 From Kyiv, Vilnius, Tbilisi and Moscow’75 to Ibiza and Berlin ’25
Vinyl collector turned sound collagist. Mixing Eastern Bloc nostalgia with soulful tape grit and house grooves.

🎛 Genres: Disco edits • Funk reworks • Estrada • Soul tape collages • Lo-fi groove
