Mars Needs Lovers (Санкт-Петербург/Пермь, Россия)

Mars Needs Lovers

Необычное музыкальное явление из России. Электронный дуэт, созданный совместными усилиями музыкантов Сергея Кузнецова и Ивана Старцева, отлично балансирует на грани инди-рока и техно, лёгкой экспериментальной электроники и транса.

Музыка Mars Needs Lovers пропитана мелодиями далёкого космоса и звуками межпланетных перемещений.

В последнее время проект сильно раздвинул границы своего звучания.  В музыке дуэта появились новые «шумные» гитарно-синтезаторные ноты, сливающиеся в поразительно экспрессивный саунд.

Сейчас MNL принимают участие сразу в нескольких инди проектах. Дуэт музыкально дополнил супер-группу «Горностай» – новое детище лидера группы «Муммий Тролль» Ильи Лагутенко. И органично влился в концертный состав группы «Сансара». Вместе они побывали в гостях у Михаила Козырева на телеканале «Дождь», объездили практически всю Россию и Прибалтику, выступили на фестивалях Пикник Афиши (Москва), Manka Fest (Таллинн), Катись Квадрат 2 (Тюмень), 25 лет свердловскому рок-клубу (Екатеринбург) и на открытии Mumiy Troll Music Bar во Владивостоке.

Результатом совместной работы с гуру мировой электронной сцены (Moonbeam и тд) стали релизы на влиятельных европейских лейблах:  «Armada Music», «Black Hole Recordings», «Baroque Records» .

Успех проекта подтверждается регулярными приглашениями на фестивали, концерты, передачи и другие значимые ивенты.  Каждое выступление дуэта становится действительно незабываемым аудиовизуальным шоу.

Mars needs lovers генетически оригинальное явление российской музыки, с каждым днем приобретающее все больше lovers по всей планете.
