This is probably my favourite music from last year. Piano, guitar, tape manipulation and found sounds. Strange, esoteric and beautiful. Imagine if Boards of Canada were a folk band from Russia.
From Bandcamp :
"Straddling these two domains - a rural, removed faith and troubled modernity - we find the barely audible music of Foresteppe (Egor Klochikhin). His most recent recordings - "No Time to Hurry" depict the faraway streets of Berdsk with an air of humbling gratitude. These are introspective instrumentals from the edge of a very welcoming Siberian forest."
