Miro is a joint project of Andrew Popovsky (curator of the St. Petersburg Experimental Sound Gallery) and Michael Kuleshina (drummer Mercury). Andrew plays the electric guitar with lots of lotions and uses objects, Michael - drums and percussion. Calm soundscapes give way to nervous free-jazz breaks, the vocabulary of contemporary classical music is combined with improvised passages. "Unusual" methods of musicianship (hairbrush, bow, feather, matches, chain, etc.) coexist with a standard plectrum. Digital audio signal processing devices (reverb, overdrive, echo, loop-station) are used along with a "clean" sound. This music - improvisation - is not "the result of frozen" and the birth process sound images.
"Precarious, barely perceptible texture. Images, vaguely elusive, it is convex visible. Miserly collection of fine tools, each of which opened its own, unique pattern. Laconic restraint, which suddenly - suddenly, unpredictably - explodes the emotional surge to another in an instant turn into a collapse. Some elements - the sound drops, curved prichudivye forms exist, as it were by themselves - and only after hearing the entire album, as it went away a little distance from the canvas, you start to feel a connection between them." - Alexander Kahn
