Pikapika TeArt were founded in 2004 in second largest Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk,Russia."Pikapika" means "light explosion" on Japanese. Majority of band's members have academic musical education and in their music the band organically mixes three main components: Slavic traditional music and Siberian folklore, European chamber rock (Henry Cow,Volapuk,Univers Zero) influences and contemporary academic music (Shostakovich,Stravinsky,Schnitke). Their debut album Moonberry is highly rated and I got in touch with the band for their story. Roman answered my questions. ############################################################################### Your home city Krasnoyarsk is one of the biggest cities in Siberia and it
is half way on the Transsiberian Railway between Moscow and the Baikal Sea.
How is life in Krasnoyarsk ?
At the time, we are working on the material for our second album. Thank you to Roman for this interview Their PA profile is here and their homepage's here |
