The idea of this project came out in 2003 after the first spontaneous joint performance... The album started to be recorded later that year. NetLenka had some conceptual ideas about texts, MOX had some compositions, which pleaded for adding vocals to them. As the result, we have an mesmerizing, witching album, where the vocal and the background seem to reveal its own special harmony..., also due to talent and taste of Nick Artamonov (mixer reand co-producer), who found an peculiar balance. It was the one of his last works...
NetLenka, using her outstanding voice, which reminds of ancient Slavic (and not only) singing, tell us the stories about mermaids. There are a lot of myths about mermaids in the ancient Russian history. According to a legend, all female dead born children, dead before christening and drowned girls become mermaids. They are eternally young and beautyful. When nature blossoms, they wander along shore of their rivers, find an sanctuary under an oak's crown, where they're sitting, spinning yarn.

Our new album "Herbarium" is
out now on CdBaby (MP3 so far, physical CD is on its way).
Diverse palette of styles (post-rock,
ambient, electronica, trip-hop, with elements of noise, dub,
neoclassic and free improvisation), united by cinematic, slightly
pensive mood.
«Herbarium» is called so
because of heterogeneity of «songs», which can be
compared to miscellaneous leaves in the album, still being belonged
to the family of trees. Trying to avoid non-alive metaphors here,
only thought of diversity and warm and innermost feeling that
herbarium is capable to conjure up. «... This leaf I picked up
in the park where I met her, and this - I sat by the river,
contemplating...». So tracks were created – one was captured
in some magic jam, another – recorded layer by layer and
meticulously mixed then, next – cut from previous sessions and so
on.
All compositions are united by Poostosh
sense of music – mostly pensive, spatial, tender and experimental.
There's a lot of soul and charisma in every leaf... So please let
your soul look over our HERBARIUM.
