x Anton cubes: "Techno - a paradise for a drummer"
(C) Kirill Karpenko
Sinner, I confess - I was not on the first two parties,
when Anton cubes came to our city and let the fans
techno thrown at me rotten tomatoes, rotten eggs, stones and all
the rest of that arm will fall.
Last kubikovskaya party I liked.
"Kubikovskoy" it can be called with all the bases - Anton
played in succession, neither more nor less, more than five
hours - more than all the other DJs together. But I must say
that views on the next techno-action in "Luke" were
diametrically opposed, some said: "cubes fellow,
music is awesome, plays cool "- other:" Enough is enough, this

in general, techno -

parties. Some
were simply unhappy with the atmosphere. Of course, the
atmosphere at techno mostly calm, intelligent and streamlined
than on the same drum and bass - you can sit quietly and
to reflect the music, you can get on the dance floor and move
your hands and feet. This is not a mass obsession with mad
dancing to the loss of pulse under dj-sets of, for example,
visiting drum-n-beyserov as V.C.A. and Boomer. So let us
appreciate diversity.
Dice to play and record foreign techies, and music
his project SCSI-9. If anyone knows Anton is one of the few
Russian artists who publish their music on the media, more
that - he periodically releases releases on vinyl, in December
should come out of his sixth record.
Having lost, they say, from morning to night, the guest,
like, everyone was satisfied. However, like many who came
before him DJ's, said that actually kind of music, what he have
played harder is the fact that he plays normally. We ourselves
noticed that his technology is not quite deep, as in the
handbills were indicated. Why then the deep-play did not?
Because, says the music is soft, thin, and the "Luke" sound bad
- no "Pischalok" responsible for the treble, which is "to twist
button on the top, and nothing gets out, have
add tops through the middle, mid-range is
too many, the dance floor gets tired easily and so people are
not long can dance. "That this turns parsley ... But we do not
afraid of difficulties - we create them ourselves. It turns out
that tweeter (tweeters) was not because
lyukovskie DJ-scum burned them. However, now all is well
the club has new "Tweeters", and thus, we can estimate
full audio load. Interview with Kubikov as such have
I failed. But the laid-back turned
mezhdusoboyny conversation "senior fellow" (Kubikov that is)
with younger friends (ie me Nikolaitch and another pair
people). Anton sat, sipping whiskey, and told us different
interesting things. First and foremost, I will. I had my
half-formed image Kubikov as DJ-hero
DJ-knight, whose arms - the music, and he, naturally,
this image is destroyed. But do not judge strictly, an image
that I do not he thought. Have Kubikov friend - Pavel Bardin.
And somehow Paul decided to remove the short film "Hero", as
one of the roles called Anton. The film turned out great, and
if it is very try, we can find it on video and watch it. So I
put this all to the fact that the cubes in this movie, and
cubes in fact - entirely different things. It is
understandable, Anton, except that a good DJ and musician, is
also a good actor. Introducing currently Kubikov such a DJ,
what he is "Hero" (and he was there is di-zheya, and his path
to de-dzheystvu imagine some special and extraordinary. The
very same cubes tells about it. His musical career began with
radio station "Youth" in Moscow, where he worked with Zorkin.
From there, Anton, and began its way to the title popularly
known and beloved DJ focusing primarily on the COMPASS-Wrubel,
who was already playing in clubs. Incidentally, the first
workable Moscow clubs were "Hermitage", "LSDance" and "Jump", in
which played Lantern and Spider with Fishem - the last two
colleagues at the Moscow Kubikov techno scene. Then appeared
other clubs. Generally, of all the clubs who were in Moscow
Cube like most Ptyuch. That was then and now
its not like none of the Moscow club. Therefore, in Moscow, he
does not play, and toured the cities of Russia, most of all he
loves to be in Kaliningrad, Kaliningrad in the club "Batten".
AND More Anton goes to play in Germany. However, not only play,
but More records and to publish your music on there
vinyl, and now he works with record labels Forcetrakcs and Salo.
On the question why at the beginning of his career, when
he stood on musical crossroads, cubes chose techno, he replied:
"Techno - a paradise for the drummer, the music, in which the
melody made of percussion instruments. "
