vesna – snow sences (n5md)

vesna means spring in russian. and vesna is a duo (dmitry tchemiak and alexey gaponeko) from russia. if their name is vesna, bearing in mind it means spring, you can easily get the idea about their music and sound determination. it reminds of the post idm sound that was in serious expansion at the beginning of this millennium and became really invasive especially within the russian scene. but anyway in this case it’s a bit different additionaly backed up with a contemporary production. it is calm and warm electronica that brings spring to mind of course and creates this mellow spring-atmosphere you usually get around the last days of march during winter’s crossover. they deal with calm moody jazz melodies connected with thick, smooth bass and slow break, down tempo rhythm. various instruments are layered in relaxed emotional melodic haystacks. a warp influence is also visible through the subtle instrumental hip hop moments arranged in smooth sound structures. at moments melancholic and even a bit dark, only there as if to prove that winter hasn’t left yet. likewise, icy glitchy textures that sometimes cover layers of ambiental soundscapes remind us that spring hasn’t actually arrived. but as it gets warmer, everything starts becoming green. the sky becomes clear, open and high. everybody gets out of themselves. spring is definitely the best time of the year.
