Vtgnike – Dubna LP
Vtgnike
Dubna
Price $Dubna USD
A unique blend of juke, ambient, and broken beat that feels spiritually similar to what was taking place in the 2010s L.A. beat scene
“Moscow-based artist Vtgnike’s music has been described as Russian juke, and his album for Nicolas Jaar’s Other People label does bear a distinct regional character. Dubna is named after a town north of Moscow, and its artwork shows Bruegel’s Hunters In The Snow superimposed with Soviet tower blocks. Vtgnike’s music, meanwhile, is constructed from samples of Russian pop, R&B and easy listening, all underpinned by frantic footwork beats.”
