Roma Ptashenko - Moscow-based DJ and resident of two prominent communities: @volchokclothing, where he leads a podcast show and helps organize parties and @popoffkitchen.

His memorable DJ sets dance sets are influenced by his appreciation for canonical 90s rave music, peppered with modern dance bangers. He is a frequenter at Mutabor, a resident of St. Petersburg’s Blank and of the now-closed RAF and a true staple of the Moscow underground.

Roma Ptashenko - Московский диджей и участник двух знаковых московских комьюнити: стритвир-проекта Volchok, где он ведет свою серию подкастов и организовывает вечеринки. А также музыкального квир-сообщества Popoff Kitchen.
 
Сеты Ромы — это выверенные композиции, бьющие в танцевальную цель, вдохновлённые корневой рейв-культурой 90х, но оставляющие место мега-хитам.
 
Его выступления за последние несколько лет можно было регулярно застать как в главной московской техно-мекке Mutabor, так и в петербургском Blank и закрывшемся андеграундном пространстве Raf25, в тбилисском Drama Bar и ереванском Poligraf.

To drink the «Ladoga» cranberry tincture after the beer. To swing around the city in something defiantly colorful instead of the usual mourning black. To move from Kreuzberg neighbourhood of Berlin to Longinovskaya street in Lefortovo. To eat a hot pepper with marshmallows in chocolate. To cut off your luxurious tresses and shave your head. Finally, stop rooting for the club from the Premier League and start supporting with all your heart the «Torpedo» football team from Lyubertsy.

None of these events comes close to the contrasts of the full vinyl mix recorded for us by Ilya Sheiman, co-founder of the Alt community, sound producer and our dearest friend.

Sheyman - 5/8 Radio #202

(live version)

‘And where should we go’ — live-recorded album by Homeless dog, the psychedelic electro-acoustic duo consisting of a screech of saxophone and electric guitar, vocals, synthesizers and ethnic instruments, in which Vladimir Sidorov and Ilya Sheyman study various forms of absurdity and chaos, scream and freeze, uprooting everything that is dug into the depths of thoughts and feelings. 

The musicians of the duo speak about the album as follows: 

“The war has come, which we did not want, were afraid of, which we are fighting against and which we hate. Up to this day, it keeps us awake at night, haunts us on the way to school or work, guards nearby grocery stores and on the subway, seeps into people's faces and rots, infecting their internal organs. Others lose their homes and loved ones, migrating all over the world in search of space and safety and do not know where to go. 

We don't know where we should go either. This live recording is our hour-long story about the feeling of being lost and empty, when there is nothing you can grab onto and everything disappears: the former world that you loved and tried to protect, but could not save, because there are people vaster than you and more terrible” 

The release is already available on digital platforms, a little later in audio cassette format.

"И куда нам деваться" — live-альбом Бродячей собаки, психоделического электроакустического дуэта в составе скрежета саксофона и электрической гитары, вокала, синтезаторов и этнических инструментов. Участники проекта Владимир Сидоров и Илья Шейман изучают различные формы абсурда и хаоса, кричат и замирают, выкорчёвывают всё, что врыто в глубину мыслей и чувств. 

Авторы рассказывают о содержимом альбома так: 

“Наступила война, которую мы не хотели, боялись, против которой мы боремся и которую ненавидим. Она по сей день не даёт нам спать по ночам, преследует нас по пути на учёбу и работу, караулит у продуктовых магазинов и в метро, просачивается в лица людей и гниёт, заражая их внутренние органы. Другие теряют дома и близких, разлетаются по миру в поисках воздуха и безопасности и не знают куда им деться. 

Мы тоже не знаем куда нам деться. Этот лайв — наш часовой рассказ об ощущении потерянности и пустоты, когда не за что хвататься и все пропадает: тот прежний мир, который ты любил и оберегал, но не смог сохранить, потому что есть люди выше и страшнее”. 

Альбом складывался весной и летом 2022-го года, был записан живьём для TESTFM в сентябре.

небылснаружи, никита азелицкий

A DJ originally from Zaporizhzhia, whose musical career began on the Kyiv scene. Co-organizer of the Hybrid Moment party series, which explores the dark side of electronic music, and curator of the Inner Voyage show on 20ft, aimed at creating a platform for artists and DJs to experiment with various downtempo genres.

Inspired by post-punk, trip-hop, and ambient music, with a background as a nu-disco and synth-pop artist, Béllis deeply explores the melodies of dark disco and EBM, the dark side of indie dance, complemented by acid and electro motifs.

Her selection is a symbiosis of powerful synth parts, ethnic motifs, and elusive vocal elements. According to the DJ, this combination creates a sense of immersion, making the experience for her and the people on the dance floor more intimate and profound.Valera crafts eccentric dance experiences with a distinct tone. Leaning towards experimentation, his sound is anchored by a pervasive acidic touch, EBM-inspired basslines, and disco-Infused drum sections, all enveloped in a dramatic but yet confident ambience.
