Patti Smith

Anton Kubikov (guitar), Sergey Sapunov (bass), Korablove (keys, sampling)  and Ilya Shapovalov(drums)joined to form the instrumental band Raw Code , to the surprise of fans and critics. Away from the familiar ways of the straight base drum they explore one for techno protagonists supposedly foreign edge of the musical cosmos - full of exotic effect pedals, howling tape-delays and noise synths. The harder edged tunes send us back to krautrockish sounds a la Cologne's Can, while the more melancholic ones connect us to british psychedelic anthems of Pink Floyd's Sid Barret aera. But suddenly an acid solo or a modernly twisted sample will take us back to present times. Thus, Raw Code is a new, raw and rule-breaking musical experiment, which freely tries to de-chiffre the riddles of our mind.
