"Boston Tea Party" - one of the most extraordinary group of Russian rock underground. The team is unusual for the Russian rock tradition, the group's "Picnic", formerly "Agatha Christie", "Farewell, my youth", "lay Obermaneken." Actively using the keyboard and adding them the acoustic instruments - flute, is violin, saxophone, the sound of the "Boston Tea Party" as part of the art-rock with elements of the "new wave" and jazz instead. Strange performances, poluteatralnye action and virtual Hoax - ". Bostonians" in the spirit of new musicians in their concerts unusual atmosphere of bohemian interior. They wrote the first Russian song about the World Wide Web, have built the festival "Velvet Underground" and was the head of the movement of courtly decadence. Is it any wonder that they are attracted to the magnet, if the benefits of authentic and stylized aristocratic spirit, aesthetes and decadents. In anticipation of a single spring concert, on the 12th May will take place in Moscow club "archeology", NEWSmusic.ru journalists met the leader of the "Boston Tea Party" and violinist Vladimir Preobrazhensky team Danilo Shlapakova. The "Boston Tea Party" at their concerts creates the unique atmosphere of bohemian interior. - When and under what circumstances the band "Boston Tea Party" fell into decadence, and even courtly? Vladimir: (sarcastically). Not at first. First, there was a group of "Boston Tea Party", in 2000, the time of the turn of the century and a new era. Then it is we had another post-hippie aesthetic with a hint of some urban fantasy. And anyway, so far, "Boston Tea Party" is not limited to polite decadence. The group has at least three of the art world. On the one hand it's really courtly decadence - the aesthetics of the car cabaret, in the new century, so to speak. Secondly, we certainly inherit traditions of Russian rock, social rock, with serious, meaningful, deep themes. Told no wonder AK Trinity and our song "North-East" once. The third area - a tea meditation music, of which there is a separate program. It's called "New escapism." Incidentally, the "sharp social", relatively speaking, to show the program, we have even a stone. It's called "The subscriber is not available." In design, we show that even showed a few times, and while they were all silent. Theatre, with which we began work on this project, now apparently has other plans. And the project with a rock performance, "participants can not" hang in the air. - As most readers have no idea what a "courtly decadence", tell me please from the start. Vladimir: The new capital of art-house, after the draw, as we become a festival "Velvet Underground". At the intersection of terms such as "decadent" and "civility" is born interesting world. On the one hand it is in the Gothic belief, rooted now popular in such a gloomy mysticism. We, the people are not particularly urgent, in fact, but seriously. It is no coincidence, in appearance we be called as follows: the violinist - Mephistopheles, keyboardist and flutist - Trotsky is, just that, with Latin roots, and one species in Byron Center. The more that I speak sometimes in a white scarf. Another facet of his courtly decadence into a kind of lightness, elegance and aesthetics - well, actually, courtesy. And therefore it is a complex set of emotions in the listener. Say, a man came to hear some courtly romances, and then he song about Hitler. But if we have this song - it turns out, so we have to say. - And you're the first in Russia, wrote a song on the internet? - Well, yeah. Authoritative publications have documented that it is. Wrote the song in 1996. The song was called and is still called "New escapism." Escapism, each to escape from reality. In the 19th Century aesthetic manifesto and escapism was Huysmans's novel "On the contrary." All decadents certainly read! (Smiles). The song was then added the group "The Flying Dutchman", which I headed, and then in a different arrangement, bagatelle smoothly migrated to the project, called "The Alchemical Cabaret them. January Potocki, "and when the" Boston Tea Party "is formed, has become one of the hits and performed our first maxi-single," Nocturne. "Now there is only a single, limited edition and sold at auction for more money (laughter). 12th we. certainly with improvised auction "push" this rarity. Also on the tape. To be honest, at the time when it was written, I had no idea what the Internet On the Internet I had about the same performance as a ballistic missile or ciliates shoe I knew that a global computer network, and it is very cool, however, began one of the basic properties of the network -.. so that's virtuality and the way to escape from reality Now we can see what all this has evolved -. many of us boys and girls. "who live on the web" This is the same care online escapism, in the form of various blogs, in form created by some of the worlds, intellect and imagination. And when the song "Listen to the voice of the wind," we have LJ mentioned, you know, how many responses it was immediately! Sometimes they are very important to those keywords that you once too close to someone, and someone on the contrary, you will immediately grow a wall of incomprehension are Found in the song Fowles, "Book of Changes" and Tinto Brass -. '. Yeah, our people, "people who know say, and we see their reactions to think only about me even Sometimes they are very important to those keywords that you immediately become someone you know -. How would you describe your music - One the dumbest questions we ask - "what style you play." Above all, listen to the man who knows more or less everything in the music, a concert or a record and draw their own conclusions, in what style, who plays . So the answer in a responsible manner: Our style is called "extreme sentimentality." When you at least a little binder to find the songs together, this is an extreme sentimentality - Perhaps, then call them "emo" - Emo - in.? Generally, it is also an extreme sentimentality, but our concept - tolshe, psychological, versatile and heavy guitars with us is not in sight, the idea was in the air, so to speak We started with a refined, delicate.!. . courtly side and prone to reconsider for maximalism teenagers their way we as a people are more mature and dignified, although nervous, transforms the attitude in this art form, which has also been called "courtly decadence." - And you can add a little more for ignorant readers of courtly decadence festival "Velvet Underground" said Vladimir: The first festival took place in 2005 there were Stepantsov Vadim, Vladimir Veselkin (ex-showman "auction"), the legendary band "Obermaneken" in which I played. have. Consent to participate in the festival, the group's "Picnic", St. Petersburg "Calibri", Alexander F. Sklyar, but for various reasons they were not able to speak. - What about the "Velvet Underground" this year? Traditional May Day celebrations that would not be? - This year's "Velvet Underground" with the "Boston Tea Party" goes even further into the ground. Private and semi-evening performances dekadenskie orgy in private galleries and the local parties in small clubs where still participate with the musicians and theater groups -. Mimes, and therefore interesting for us, artists, photographers - That is, everything is once again for a selected group? - Why do we need a mass audience? And we have, I believe, to what. We are open to dialogue with all, but not at the expense of some idiotic compromise when you say, say, "Man, Che's kind of difficult to have everything clear." This guy immediately go timber - listen to your "X-Factor", a group of "Animals" and earrings ... Public in the mass of course, did not meet expectations. As you remember, in one of the songs Umki "stragglers, Mom: I'm not one to sing your blues" ... The audience was somehow ... - Strange? Daniel (nothing so far): - No, not funny. Quite the opposite - very predictable and understandable. People take only what he chewed recruit desperate. Here's something that sounds constantly on the radio, which always say. Typical situation at the same festival "Invasion". Leaves the group well enough known. Begins a very interesting song to play - and the people were reluctant somehow. And then began to play hits, the sound in the air all the time - and all the people happy. The impression is that people come to a huge rock festival to just to hear that, in these hits, Sound Radio. One more time. And preferably in the same design. Well, what is it? Here's how to work with the public? We therefore prefer to particular audiences and to play in certain places. Therefore, the "Velvet Underground" is. But it is ecstasy. - Volodya, you said something about the decadent orgies? - Did I say ..? Well, okay, I say. It is quite such a special party. Its atmosphere is a cross between such aristocratic salons of the 19th Century as a cave in Thailand beginning on 20. Imagine: delicious dishes, candles, poetry, sounds, atmosphere Severianin, Baudelaire and Wilde, a mystical action and drama. So, just like in our song "Last Tango in Paris." - That's all concerts "Boston Tea Party", where only a select few will be? Vladimir: Yes, of course. This is the 12th - Only an "escape." And because we are usually very few concerts. And common services are missing. Each of our public appearance as a rule, it was either the festival or another party or a new program, the same "The subscriber is not reachable" or - a unique alliance with another team. But with the "Theatre Boo" several programs. Otherwise, scratching the clubs - boring. And this time it's for a reason. On 12 May in "archeology" as many as three clip presented - two for the song "Nocturne" and has already caused a strong reaction in the Internet video - In this video, shot stunning gothic stripper Anna Bergström "Spies of glamor.". Previously played in the videos and occur repeatedly in various talk shows. In general, she is an actress and writer. Performed in the second "Velvet Underground" Anya. It is waiting for her presentation. And "Nocturne" takes a great director Marina Pavlova. Previously, she was doing, by the way the video for "Aquarium", and the two, that BG approved. - As "Nocturne" Remove? Daniel: The first version of "Nocturne" was shot in the heart of Moscow, in the charming capital terrace. We are very picturesque newspapers are scattered. The result is such an intelligent looking lady, saw it and said, Lord, I certainly understand, but then, please, take it away with him. We, of course, everything has been removed. Video "Spies glamor" of the "Boston Tea Party" - where the "Boston Tea Party" intends to move forward? Besides further underground? Vladimir: stadium concerts, I certainly would not want to. And act at major festivals such as "Invasion" - is not our version. First, we'd traveled quite there and it would be the feeling that everything goes into the void. Probably just going to continue to look for similar locally. Gothic audience we are very interesting, but not all, of the revival of the movement "mods" attracts. We all love the exotic. DANIEL eroticism. Vladimir: Absolutely. (Smiles). Usually it takes a madman maniac together, and I think that maniac perverts should get together and pleasuring each other - talk, music, poetry ... - To play for perverts? Daniel: You can say, dass for Perverse Why? Imagine a young man who comes every Sunday in the conservatory drawings and listening to classical music. Is not it perverse? Vladimir (showing on the violin): Daniel V., a professional musician who lives just music, it teaches understands and receives a modest money. But he continues to do it, do not work in a bank or trade. He continues to play in the "Boston Tea Party", although the financial benefits that it brings a very funny now. Is not it perverse? Pervert. Daniel: A young man who looks after his appearance, mannerisms, and the clothes on stage, but not the "blue", speaks at a time in accordance with the etiquette of the XIX century, a clock bear on a chain, etc. Is not that perverse? Vladimir (suddenly with a girl reporter on the wrist and the value of looking into the eyes): And I like the band King Crimson.
