... Young people are known to be always young. The desire to
relax and have fun can not come and go depending on the
political upheavals. So for us, was not unexpected message from
Grozny: in the first days Peace in the Chechen capital, a party
was held, which brought together a small but loyal fans Modern
Music: Rave, Hardcore ...
DJ Chavrad (Croatia).
---------------------?: How do you respond to the offer
play on the rave in Grozny?
H: Calm down. My father and brothers the militants. I myself
have repeatedly engaged in military actions. Was wounded.
?: Well, as you Chechen capital?
H: The airport in Grozny looks, honestly
speaking, not the European way: too many
protection. Promoters, who called me
from Belgrade, too, in the recent past were soldiers. They
organized the first post-war party in a dilapidated movie
theater "Flame". ?: What music do you play?
H: House, deep-house and acid-house. I thought of after the war
is more appropriate hardcore and gabber. But then I realized
that all are very tired of the bombing. During
partying with me even approached one of the
pryamouterov and asked me if I
Modern Talking.
?: Is there anything in Grozny DJs?
H: Yes. Before the war there were five, there were two ... One
of them, DJ Ibrahim who played after me and said,
that with the plates in Grozny badly.
?: Tell me about the party itself?
W: All this reminded competition "Who is better
remembers pre-war dance. "The audience was
different. Came even Russian soldiers. But
with Russian, I did not speak, so I do not know
who was there could be spies.
There was a lot of beautiful girls and the homeless,
who live temporarily in the cinema ...
Addicts I have not seen, because looking at the dance floor,
but not in the corners where can be something happening.
?: How much do you pay?
H: Sponsor of the party was firm, "Ridge", dealing with medical
insurance. They gave me two Kalashnikov assault rifle. I
already sold one.
DJ Schaal (Palestine).
-------------------?: Strange that the Palestinians suddenly
found himself in Chechnya ... W: Nothing unusual in this. About
Arab di dzheyah generally little known.
In the Middle East there is almost no ravers,
so we are forced to travel
around the world. And most importantly, not all DJs to easily
play soglashatsya so dubious places, but to us who grew up
among the terrorists and bombings, all it used to.
?: What can you tell about the past
rave in Grozny?
W: I'm not the first time in a city where more
a month ago there were fights. While I played my
Set on the street near the cinema, where
held a rave, sappers destroyed several anti-tank mines. These
wonderful sounds perfectly superimposed on My Soul Plane
composition. A spate replaced with strobe lights. ?: You said
you usually play Trance And what did you play in Grozny?
W: Classic goa-trance. I half-year
held in India, and I can not play another
music. Besides, I think, the Chechen people are so lacking
Space stories.
?: And as it was on the dance floor?
W: Guys great move. No
accidents, fortunately, was not.
The only thing I do not like to
all post-war weapons from the rave dancing, it is not always
taken away when you log I played a hour and went to the Chill
out. Here, where there was a remarkable tusovka
We were lying on mattresses, drinking tea and listening to the
Chechen people's songs, which played a young man with a guitar.
Unfortunately, only one of my new friends knew friends in
Arabic and knew a few English words. But still
It was very fun.
?: How do you rate the quality of music on
rave?
W: working professionals of the highest
class. I was pleasantly surprised DJ Ibrahim
from Grozny. We have with him is very similar
fate and the same views on music.
Likely to sl.reyve in Mexico, we
We play together.
DJ Ageyev (New York - Moscow).
------------------------------?: How did you like the recent
party in Grozny? A: In New York or in Moscow, such a party, of
course, could not take place. It was something incredible.
Reports from Grozny on TV I saw the ruins. The reality is even
worse, just a depressing spectacle. But it's nice that in a
city where only that the war was over, people are trying to
somehow adjust to a peaceful way. Organization was at a very
high level, no delays or incidents. The audience behaved
amicably. Very well received by our international team of DJs.
No tricks against yesterday's fighting opponents, although all
the saber-rattling, was not. That I was particularly pleased.
?: What are you playing?
A: Of course, technology. Only kind of music suited to this
environment. ?: Have you not noticed the presence of Chechen
leaders on such an important event for political advertising?
A: Officially, of course, on such visit Nobody mentioned. But
closer to midnight on the floor just a few minutes
there was a group of Chechens in masks.
There has been some recovery, there was
some shouting, but one of the included
made a gesture-party continued
Soon, these people have left. Who was it - no
I know. Of course, everyone said that Basayev had come.
DJ Sanchez (Moscow).
-------------------?: Perhaps the first Moscow DJ
who happens to play in Grozny. What are your impressions about
the situation at this strange party?
From: The party was really pretty
unusual. First of all, impressed "by design"
premises, where we played: the old movie theater with walls,
stitched through with bullets and shells. On the street there
were several trucks that have no special, however, rhythm
turned on and off lights to the wall. Light enters through the
holes inside the building. Effect of stunning! Face control was
very loyal: allowed, and Russian and Chechen where weapons are
not collected. I think that the party came to those who are
tired of war, so conflict was not. But
grenades and bullets rattled all scary ...
?: How things were on drugs?
With: Everyone was so exhausted that no one drug was necessary.
Anyway, I did not notice obkurivshihsya. In general, it was all
in some incomprehensible state. I was their little sorry ...
Powerful bass lines produced at present a depressing effect,
some began to chant something. But play no one interfered. ?:
What music do you play? C: Played mostly house.No guys
military, battle-hardened asked something harder, and
eventually I sold to techno. ?: Did you own idea, "Rave
after the war?
C: Yes, I do very much, and the public, and other DJs. I hope
that this unusual design of the club will remain as
something highly original and
Of course, as a reminder of a war that should not happen again.
Necessarily I'll go if invited again.
