ON AND ON

Well, it looks like we're almost halfway there with our production after this particularly busy weekend - at the Saturday we talked to Kirill Muhin and Lekha Obozny from Man Bites Dog, and then at Sunday we payed a visit to the studio where Alexei Taroutz from I Am Above On The Left creates and works (rather fittingly, Gnesin Academy of Music is right across the street, on Povarskaya street). Guys from Man Bites Dog contributed the funniest and good-humoured take yet at the Moscow indie scene, and Taroutz took a role of doubting artist, immersed in harsh self-critique and a constant search. Suddenly in the midst of all this I seemed to grasp why I'm doing it: it's the awfully prone certainty that these guys and bands did create the MOST INTERESTING music in Russia in 00's, and (sadly) nobody payed attention or gave them a credit they deserve. Why must it be like this is another story altogether, cos we take a joy in celebrating them with our movie, no matter what.
