ASTMA "there will be a McDonald's"

ASTMA is Olga Nosova (drummer and vocalist mostly known for her work
with Moscow noise-core band Motherfathers) and Russian
industrial/electronic scene pioneer Alexei Borisov. The collaborative
project was formed in April 2009 in Moscow. Paying homage to both
experimental tradition of Alexei's countless musical reincarnations
and Olga's instrumental noise experience, the duo embrace elements of
weird free-form spoken word psychedelia, live electronics, noise,
heavy acid, electroacoustic, d'n'b and far too many different types of
acoustic torture to even bother mentioning them. The music is highly
improvised, so naturally Borisov / Nosova collaborate with various
musicians, video-artists and poets from different countries both live
and in studio: Anton Nikkila (Finland), Dave Phillips (Switzerland),
Matthieu Werchowski (France), Dora Bleu (Canada), Thomas Buckner
(USA), Tom Smith (USA), Jandek (USA), Ilya Belorukov (Russia), Sergei
Letov (Russia), Nikita Tsymbal (Russia) to name just a few. Borisov /
Nosova duo is touring extensively and in 2009-2010 performed in
Russia, Turkey, Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Poland, Germany, Austria,
Slovenia, Netherlands, France, Israel, Lithuania, Ukraine, Belorussia
etc.
