said:
" I like the Petersburg electronic outfit KLUtCh.
Unfortunately, there are very few Russian groups today whose work is physically or spiritually beneficial. There's too much 'heartrending' stuff out there that does nothing more than complain how everything's bad or that life is simply awful..." , http://www.farfrommoscow.com/artists/klutch.html

RUSSIAN DANCE REVOLUTION: KLUtCh
There is something aggressive about this new wave of European-influenced house—perhaps due to its creators belonging to a generation weaned on hip-hop and metal—and KLUtCh, the nom de rock of Russian electro wizard Denis Popyrin, perfectly illustrates this antagonism with his distorted dance music. What makes these murky songs so scary is that—as on “Sacred Knowns”—they go from darkly ambient to scuzzily volatile and back so quickly that listeners can get whiplash. Other tracks, like “How To Potato 7K,” offer the 8-bit energy and forward momentum that would make them perfect for soundtracking adventure videogames. So whether you’re looking for a score for action sports or action films, you can find a KLUtCh song to bring out the inner Steve Caballero or Steven Segal in anyone.

REVOLUTIONARY RUSSIANS: KLUtCh
The squelching, distorted electro of Russia’s KLUtCH fits in perfectly amongst the current crop of echo-laden, rock-influenced dance music (see: Does It Offend You Yeah? or Justice). With manic energy, stuttering, A.D.D.-addled edits, and a buzzy 8-bit bleeps and bloops, this electronica is not simply for dancing. KLUtCh’s songs are dark, itchy and aggressive, perfect for scoring an action scene, be it spies chasing one another through dimly lit European streets, videogame characters mowing down the competition or skateboarders executing the perfect double kickflip. Recommended uses: * Futuristic and/or dystopic movie trailers * Replacing Justice, the Death Set or Does It Offend You, Yeah? * Action sports videos

"This is a Russian thing off this compilation called Ru.Electronic. It sounds really Russian. It's just sounds like they cobbled together whatever they could and made it. You can almost feel the temperature of the room when he was recording it. It's got this riff that comes in that's really simple, it just plink-plonks away. It's one those tracks you hear and think: "Why don't I just use one DAT machine and a synthesiser?" You don't need all this equipment, you just need a good idea." Charlie May (Spooky) about KLUtCh's "Strochnik", Ministry of Sound magazine, 2002 (issue about Sasha & his album 'Airdrawndagger').
