ESNS: 2012
He has been crowned king of Moscow's electronic sound by his fans. And they are with many. "He managed to combine two absolutely antagonistic elements - romantic-depressive Russian rock and impassive clubbing electronic music", was written. Roma Litvinov, born in 1983 in Moscow, refuses to be characterized solely as an electronic artist. Electronics are merely a means to combine various styles from acoustic jazz and pseudo symphonic music to experimental clicks and cuts, microsampling and glitch tech. If someone is capable of combining this, it is Litvinov, who managed to blend Sjostakovitsj with a power drill. His album Downshifting, released this year, has been praised as the best Russian album of the last ten years. Mujuice is not trying to go along with all things new and hip in the Western avant-electronics scene, he dares to choose for his own sound filled with influences he has encountered in everyday life. Praise him for that and praise him for Downshifting.
