Seasons, elements, my celestial nature, my human nature, LOVE, sex, vibrations of the Universe, dreams, cinema, music of the past and the future, animals of the Earth and other planets, drugs, travels (mostly walk and bicycle), cooking a meal, alcohol, friends as vitamins, friends of the friends as microelements, glances of unfamiliar people as the source of appearing of the musik from nowhere. EAR'S ADDICTED TO MUSIK.

Imagine your own musik, but you hear it through the another person's ears. In that special case, that's me. :>)
MOX was established in 1998. Actually, it is a reflection of all music I've heard in my life, but naturally is very special reflection. When you've heard a lot, it's like you never listened to a music. You can create whatever you want.
That's why I involved myself to plenty of projects - simply to release the inhibition of creating. Before MOX, there were some rock groups, where I played drums, but in 1998 electronic technologies captured me to give a birth to a such curious entity as MOX.
The first track, which was honoured to appear in CD, was kinky "Bassett"- electronic lounge sketch (Tell Tschaikowski The News, Vol. 2, 2001, Exotica Lights). Then, the desire for releasing an album pointed me to find money (with a kind support of my friends) to issue the album "Insects"- (2002) on Exotica label (thanks to the head of the label - Andrey Borisov and fantastic soundengineer Nick Artamonov (deceased]. "Insects" - is a bizarre mixture of such styles as Warpwise electronica, dub, ambient, glitch, lounge, minimal, big -beat and sense of humour. ("Insects" is sold out everywhere now - but apparently it'll be re-released soon). Closer to the end of that year I began to collaborate with Netlenka (Ethnica Music Project) in order to make an joint album "OMUT" . OMUT - dark and eclectic alloy of AphexTwin-wise/dubby electronica from MOX with pagan/Slavic vocal stories about mermaids from Netlenka . Album’s co-producer Nick Artamonov has found such balance in which 2 elements (background and vocal) exist as if parallel lines, emphasizing each other and creating bizarre and attractive world. Album was released on Megaliner Records in 2004. In 2006 me and my friend Russian-German poet Alexander Delphinov (with support of my constant collaborator Sergey Karapetyan) - recorded rhythm n'poetry album MOX_DELPHINOV "Brave Old Wave - 2084" .The album's genres: noise-reggae, post-dub, huge-beat, punk-house, klezmer-R&B and brave old wave. The album was released by Monstaar Records in 2006, but later was put up for free-downloading - just click its name.
English label from Croydon Mrs Vee released the new album of previously unreleased tracks (2000-04) "Early Ganglions". 11 tracks of highly expressive material - miscellaneous and lush constellations of what MOX thinks (or thought) of trip-hop, dub, tribal, noisecore, abstract, psycho-lounge and illbient.
Reminds of Controlled Bleeding (mostly their dub works), AphexTwin, Nurse With Wound, Funky Porcini, Coldcut, DJ Spooky and .. MOX.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR MUSOS, HIPPIES, JUNKIES, NONCONFORMISTS, NOISELOVERS, RAVERS, APOSTATES, psycholoungers, illbienters and MOX fans.
Monstaar records has re-released the album "Insects" (originally released on Exotica in Moscow in 2002, edition is sold out).
MOX gives an opportunity to explore his bizarre and captivating worlds, blending ambient, dub, IDM, Warpwise electronica with elements of hip-hop, house, classical minimalism and humour – that was reflected in «Insects» in full measure.
Currently, but within a limited period of time, "Insects" is free-downloadable HERE
NEW COLLABORATION ALBUM (ALSO FOR FREE)
Mrs Vee has released a joint album of MOX and Pitch «Intoxicated Divinity». The tracks on the album don't belong to one style (all music is electronic and experimental, though) – there's things of dub with kraut-rock bias, Eno-ish instrumentals, glitch, downtempo, dark-ambient, house and more. The cover uses the original picture by Pitch.
«Intoxicated Divinity» is free for download (click the cover). You only are to register to get it.
