Nseven / Pyotr Windwind Sutupov

The Minsk label Echomania has released a wide-ranging collection of idm and ambient instrumentals. Among the Slavic contributors we find an equally broad range of emotions, from social anxiety to contentment.

The electronic / idm projects under consideration here all admit to a long-term affection for the music and culture of the 1990s. That same nostalgia fashions a certain sound, not to mention a particular view of adult experience.
