The members of the aboriginal band ZMEIRADUGA (ЗМЕИРАДУГА) seek inspiration in ancient caves, the thicket of wild-growing jazz, Australian anthills and yurts of shamans. The masters weave the warmth of voices and sounds from the whole World into the energetic canvas of percussion. The pipes of Australian Aborigines, sounds of nature, polyphony of ethnic drums and songs in forgotten languages – all of these are played live at the crossroads of ethnic, tribal ambient и psy-dub.

The music of ZMEIRADUGA continuously flows from one form into another during performance – no two performances are alike. It is enthralling audio performance shrouded in a primeval mystery of emotions of modern aborigines of the Central Russian Upland and their comprehension of all that is happening around them. It is narrated once only right here and right now in an enchanted state that is referred to as “slumber”. Often in the process of performance some of the musicians of ZMEIRADUGA lapse into this remarkable state, and then the narrative can dramatically change or indeed transform into a dance.

That said, anything around us could serve the purpose of sound extraction, be it a container, a piece of metal, an electronic spare part as well as fully functional synthesisers or drums. The musical style of ZMEIRADUGA is sometimes given quaint definitions such as "chip-tribal" or "ethno dream & dance" perhaps due to the fact that, besides percussion and other above-mentioned instruments gathered worldwide, ZMEIRADUGA frequently use various sound generators and transducers.

The fact of the matter is that ZMEIRADUGA make use of many instruments that are handcrafted by the musicians themselves or by their friends. Besides, a member of ZMEIRADUGA Elena Kozyryatskaya has created the paintings that you view when you play the tracks of the album. The other members also paint but they decided that Elena’s watercolours suit the tracks of the album best.
