Mezh. "Rip Music"

The creator of the electronic project Mezh. It does not reveal his name not because he wants to be like Burial, but simply believes that the author’s personality is not so important. More important than the song. MEZH songs. - Unexpected. It seems to be for the rhythmic movement with legs and hands in clubs, but also with meaningful texts: about the generation of indifference, about escapism and about what there is nothing to listen to - the music has died.

- At first, you announced the anonymity of the author and the performer in the MEZH project. : "It is completely unclear who she is, where, how she looks and how old she is." But then the director of MTV Russia Yana Churikova exposed everyone on her Facebook, saying that you are related to the channel. Will you open the cards?

- Oh, it happened by chance. I am very happy that Yana supports the project, it is important to me. And no one knew the fact that she would write a post on Facebook. In general, we are not going to focus on anonymity, such as some kind of secret to escalate and turn all this into a farce. I just don’t want to be a media face, but I want to make a music and give it to others to listen too. Therefore, this is rather not a question of declassification, but simply a wish - less about the personality. In general, when I like some new music, I tightly study all the tracks, and whoever people who make it usually do not matter. Most often, you get much more information in songs.

Well, so - we will play lives, and I will be there, without a mask, burns or a spacesuit, so everything is normal. The spacesuit, by the way, is a funny idea.

-Why was the leader of the record as the leader of the Petersburg group “We are not” by Nikita Sterh? How did you meet? What did you seek by sound?

- Nikitos and I met on the basis of the class music of the group “We are not”. Then it turned out that we seemed to feel the muscle, and then it turned out that we were very comfortable working together. I am very lucky, I meet truly talented people in my life.

As for the sound, Ipishka has four multi -shred tracks united by an idea and a sound. The idea is: using different modern musical directions, to tell about your attitude to important areas of life.

Dip House "Generation"-about society. The drama'n'beis “second” is about romantic relationships and about attempts to find intimacy. Almost fateful “ Underground ” - about escapism and inner loneliness. Well, hip-hop hipster " Rip Music ” - about feelings for music, and culture as a whole.

As for the sound - I wanted to do everything clean, without frills, while maintaining the quality. Well, just do not forget what you love: transparent keys, clamps, night synths such as a kind, in short, everything.

-The track "generation" seemed very nostalgic-90-sized. It seemed to me?

- How awesome that you heard it! I mean the sound references for the era of the 90s! Just what we tried to achieve: House kach, not devoid of memories, and solo at the end is such a doomed and seemingly faded. Well, like pictures on which we are five years old, and in my hands a huge red pipe of a plush phone, or “I am riding a pony”. I was forced to take pictures on the pony. I didn’t want to, but my mother and grandmother were persuaded - as a keepsake.

In general, I am unrealistically glad that you heard the 90s, this means that you manage to tell a muscle. And to the one who needs - to hear these stories.

- What generation do you call the generation of indifference? Generation of the 1990s, zero? Generation of iPhone or iPad?

- The generation of indifference is the guys who are currently 18-28. Now the more indifferent to you - the more, you are more invulnerable. Joker generation. We are: attempts to hide all feelings, sarcasm, nothing seriously, complete social virtuality, fear of seeming “out of them”, but at the same time the desire to be individuality. This all leads to apathy. And apathy, it seems to me, is a key condition for most young guys now. You noticed that the more even and more homogeneous the track is now in sound - the more he likes it, the more it seems relevant? In short, the diagram is in order - neither strong jumps, nor hard failures.

In general, in any generation you will meet such people, just, it seems to me, now there are most of them.

- You have cute Neymdropping in the songs: Tesla Boy , Pompeya ... What is it for?

- I looked in the internet, which means Neymdropping. If correctly understood, then this is the special use of the names of current musicians in their product. The song " Rip Music ” is simply that there is somehow nothing to listen to, and especially domestic. Tesla Boy and Pompeya - Contractors currently relevant at the moment, well, I also wanted the song to feel that they were playing a funeral march with the MEZH project. And in the end there is an endless repetition of the same type of squares, and the drums are louder and louder, and the funeral hip-hop march does not end and does not end. Xs when it ends.

- Will the clip for the "generation" appear on MTV ?

-At first I actually did not think to make a muscle. Rather, I did, but did not seek to publish it. But I repeat - I am lucky, and we met Rustam Kireev. He liked how I sing, and he liked my songs. He convinced me to make EP . And for me he is a close friend, a like -minded person, a creative ally, and authority. I admire them very simple. He heads the MEZH project. , and is also responsible for music on MTV , so it is better to ask him about the clip. What I know for sure - we do not want to PR exclusively with the help of available, or rather, even the resources regulated by it. Rust in fact gave our project life. It is difficult to look at the result in such situations absolutely objectively.

- Is it possible to become New Zemfira in 2015? What should be done for this?

- No, in general, I have no task to become a new Zemfira. For what? Is there just a cool Zemfira, a new one? I remember once they said about the song “Chamomile”: oh, is that, Aguzarova sings?

Of course, it was clear: they would compare. It is always heard in the tracks of the performer, what kind of music he loves. I listen to a lot of different music. Recently, “Mom Lyuba” in karaoke sang, rocked in full.
