This podcast is timed to accompany the release of V–A–C Sreda 2: Krugozor, a special printed edition dedicated to the evolution of pop music from 1985 to 2008.
In this episode, we talk to the artists whose songs can be heard on the edition’s flexible records. Why do contemporary musicians turn to the genres of past decades? How can the past and present be connected, and what is the value of “disappearing media” today?
V–A–C Sreda editor Maxim Shibaev discussed these and other questions with Stereopolina, a singer from Kazan; Neatida, a representative of Saint Petersburg rave; and “zabey, lerochka, ” a performer from Yakutsk.
To learn more about how V–A–C Sreda 2: Krugozor was created, listen to the previous episode of the podcast here.
