FORMINT009: Marc Moan – Yellow Tulips (EP)

Forza — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:34:30 +0000

Inspiration is fast passing and fastidious. One got used to do everything in a wild flow of events, but the other needs peace and loneliness.
Very often an artist or a musician in search of inspiration leaves an everyday life routine, steps back from a definite things and fills his life with a new events and experiences. Once he find a necessary harmony of an inner and outer worldwide colors, the so long-awaited masterpiece is being born. At those moments colors become brighter, silence diversifies, and a harmony strikes with an enormous wonderful wave.

All tracks was written and produced by Andrey Markevich.

“…born in 1983. Started his musical education with classics and then continued with punk rock…”

“… as time flew I discovered to myself more and more new styles and directions, dived in a magic world of chords, sequences and harmonies. As time passed, tastes differed. I tried not to stuck on a something particular…”

PUNK

“…electronic sound always affected my even at those times when I was reckless punk. I never knew why. I knew what a synthesizer was, but had no clue about sound producing…”

MTV

“… when the 90’s informational crisis passed, MTV stroke my brains. Literally! Everything at once became so interesting…”

DJ’ing

“Couple years I occupied myself with a deejaying in a night club. But no longer enough! I never could understand why should I put on something that a FORMAT dictates to me… FORMAT is no for me! FORMAT KILLS AN ESSENCE OF DEEJAYING.”

Applefly

“… I’m very critical about what I do, that is why I press “export audio” button not as often as I would like. I am not an industry or a plant. I am a musician…”

Thierry Tomas

Forza — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 12:51:25 +0000

Thierry Tomas (Evgeniy Nikolaev) is the young representative of the old school. Thierry Tomas sounds equally awesome in both – large spaces and small clubs. His charisma and American style of playing were well received by both – critics and skeptics.

Today Thierry Tomas is the resident of the popular club “Propaganda”, that has more than ten years in history. “Propaganda” continues to uphold the principles it has been established upon. It is the reason the club still gathers several generations of clubbers, who support music choices of the residents.

Thierry Tomas ‘s musical taste has long and conscious history of development – from Jazz to Techno, and back. One can feel the music transition within Evgeniy’s choices of discs as well as in his own compositions: the experiments with sound are based on his deep love for classical music.

Thierry Tomas’s latest experiment is the project called “Dual deep”. It is the live mix of Deep House and Jazz, with an added vocal. “Dual deep” is widely known as an “aesthetic cocktail” of intelligent musical preferences

One on Electrotrack radio (Russia) and one on 1mixradio (Uk), were he had guest mixes from Kev O Brien, Ben Coda, Sonny Wharton and many other well established dj’s. The start of 2010 brought about his own club night “Peach” which he runs with dj/producer Ciaran Campbell. Peach was setup to bring House Techno and Trance to the city of Armagh where it lacks it. For now, Peter is locked down in the studio, working on new originals. By the way he’s firing them out, the Beatport charts will soon be full off exciting new House and Tech House tracks with Peter McGill’s sound all over them.. ..
