Five long pieces by a film sound engineer from Ekaterinburg: drums recorded in the forest, a self-built guitar tuned in quarter tones, track titles taken from his working notes. Somewhere between folk, ambient and new age.

Mitka is a sound engineer and musician from Ekaterinburg, who mainly works in the film industry. We’ve contacted him after listening couple of his tracks on the web, his music amazed us, but we didn’t knew anything about Mitka himself. He doesn’t play live shows, doesn’t post on social media and in general it feels like he has an ascetic lifestyle.

For “Sound2” album Mitka has been recording drums in the forest, because “acoustic there is better than at home” and he didn’t had money for a studio. He made a guitar by himself because regular fret position is not for him, many of his compositions are played in quarter tone. The titles of the songs on the album are just Mitka’s notes, for understanding harmonies and tunings. “Sound2” gives you the mystical and cinematic feeling, but at the same time sounds warm and familiar. While listenin this album you can imagine your walk through the green forest covered with fog. You might not know the way out, or how did you get there, but your mind can stay quiet and calm, because Mitka will be your guide.

All tracks written and produced by Mitka. Cover art and design by Alina Vinogradova, mastered by Sergey Luginin. LP with Bandcamp download card, DiG Records DIGRECLP04.
