Vesna

Vesna formed in the autumn 1998 by Alex Gaponenko and Dimitri Tchernjak. Alex has been creating music since 1992. When Alex met Dimitri, who had been trying his hand as a dj, he realized how common their musical influences were. There was no interest in simply listening to music; the guys wanted to try creating it. They decided to be called VESNA ("spring" in Russian). VESNA is a group working in the most fresh sound tendencies. It can be characterized as cinematic beat and is a rather successful combination of abstract hip-hop, electro and modern IDM melancholy. They have a self-titled release on the Cheburec electronic music label and have kindly let n5MD put together a 7" and CD of their tracks for north-american aural consumption and has come to be one of the artists that is synonymous with n5MD.
